Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 22900
Creating a frame anchored as character does not allow sizing to the height of the page

If you create a frame anchored as character, and try to make it the same height as the page, the height stops at a certain point (8.02" on my computer). Creating a frame anchored to paragraph, to page, and to character will all allow you to size the frame to the height of the page. You can reproduce this by the following steps: 1. Open a new writer document. 2. Insert a frame, anchored as character 3. Attempt to resisze the frame to be the height of the text area of the document You will notice that it stops about an inch short of the bottom of the text area. It should allow you to size the frame to the bottom of the document.
I can confirm with OOo 1.1.0 on Win98 that a frame anchored as character can't be sized as larged as frames anchored to page, to paragraph or to character. However, in all cases the frames can't be sized as large as the page but only up to the editable text area (page minus margins). As a workaround: Edit size of frame while it is anchored to paragraph (or other), then change anchor to "as character".
HI->OD: I guess it is reasonable isn't it?
