Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 24563
Improve capturing of misplaced (above first page) objects
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:26:13 UTC
a slew of formatting errors; some characters also didn't translate correctly; I will attach the doc
Created attachment 12573 [details] the file that didn't import correctly
Reassigned to MRU
For the "wrong translated" characters I'll file a new issue and post the ID here. It is not an import problem; the symbols from the Windows-only font "Wingdings" cannot be replaced by suitable symbols from the OpenSymbol font. MRU->CMC: the graphic on page one is available twice after import.
FOnt problem with bullet symbols is now handled with issue 24634.
Created attachment 12647 [details] The single graphic that causes the problem
That extra graphic really does exists in the document, except that in word its positioned -9.9 cm vertically, i.e. above the visible area of the document. In the current version of writer we cannot use such negative vertical values for this type of anchoring. cmc->od: Is this ability to be resolved in workspace swobjpos02 ? Or is there an existing feature request belonging to you in this area ? The final attachment is the cut down example of this problem.
The Writer 'captures' all objects, which are positioned outside the page. This isn't changed in cws swobjpos02 and will not be changed for OOo 2.0. But, we are planning (with priority P4) to change the 'capturing'. We propose the following: Instead of moving such an misplaced object completely on the page, we will allow that objects may leave the page as long as a to-be-defined amount of the object area is still on the page. Thus, take over this issue to address this improvement, change the issue type to 'enhancement', and adjust the summary text.
OD->MRU: Please check, if this P4 enhancement have to be done for OOo 2.0.
No, I don't think, that this is a heavy cmpatibility issue which needs to be done for OO 2.0. Placing objects this way will not need an immediate fix in OO.
