Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 54577
Fontwork alignment
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:35 UTC
When I create a fontwork object and choose stretch to justify. Then save the document. Then reopen, the formating of stretch to justify is forgotten, and it goes to left justify. Any Ideas?
This issue is very similer to issue 55330. I would like to bump this to a P2. Maybe the fix for i55330 will fix this?
MRU->OD: when having a fontwork object with Alignment "stretch to justify" (in the Fontwork-Toolbar) this will not be displayed in the toolbar after save and reload. I wasn't able to see any visible impact on the object, so 'i do not think it is worth P2.
Created attachment 30453 [details] Example document
Let me clarify, See attached doc. If I click on the words in the oval then click on the stretch justify on the fontwork toolbar the object looks as i want. I then save it and it saves. Then i close the document and reopen it and the stretch justify change i made is un-done. The word on the first line that was stretch justified now goes back to left.

When is this slated to be fixed, other than "OOo Later"?
OD->SJ: Seems to be a fontwork issue - please take over.
What do you mean take over? I don't know how to fix this. It seems like a coder issue not user issue.
OD->jonessco: I didn't assign this issue to you. I assigned it to my colleague SJ. Thus, again reassigning to SJ. OD->SJ: Seems to be a fontwork issue - please take over.
Thank you. Sorry.
Is there any time frame on fixing this issue?
This still isn't fixed in v3.0 Beta.
Sorry, I do not have enough time to fix this for OOo.3.0 _> changed target
Any new time frame on this issue now that 3.0 is released?
OK. Is this ever going to get fixed! 3.3 is coming. This has been around since 2005!
Stretching works as expected, if the fontwork object has only one line. So there is an easy workaround, put each line into a separate fontwork object. Setting back to P3.
OK. Now I see when a bug sits out there for the past 5 years it looses attention. The Stretch works, it just doesn't get saved when a doc is saved. If it is in the software why wouldn't it just work and take 5 years and still not be fixed. A workaround would be something that wouyld be offered when this was first posted. Plus having multiple fontwork objects to maintain is more work when OO has a function for it. So that said, 5 years later is there an ETA on fixing this?
Sorry, I have to adjust this issue with respect to my other 700 Issues I own. I think there is no chance before 2011, but I try to get it solved for OOo 3.4.
Well, just an FYI, whatever it is, LibreOffice has already fixed it. Maybe it's time to switch.
