Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 91301
Ellipsis-shortened text in templates dialog
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:31:14 UTC
"My Documents" and "New Document" is shortened in templates dialog ("My ...", "New ..."). See attached screen shot. User has no idea what functionality is behind those points, I guess.

fixed in CWS aquavcl09
please verify in CWS aquavcl09 please note: you need a multimonitor configuration to see the problem
HI->KSO: Could you please verify this. Me and PL were not able to reproduce the problem.
verified in CWS aquavcl09, if other issues come up, please file separate issue
Sorry, but still broken in MWS m26. Reopened.
pl: Your task again.
Not happening in 3.0 then. @hdu: could you please have a try at coping with font sizes on kso's specific system ? I tried and obviously failed.
The UI font size and resolution can make a difference indeed. Now the real problem seems to be that the templates_dialog uses the TEXT_DRAW_ENDELLIPSIS style whereas the reporter kso cannot accept the ellipsis. So the quickest solutions would be to disable that style. The real solution would be to increase the size of the left pane to have enough room so that everything that needs to be displayed can be displayed.
sorry, the problem is that the font is too large and not as according to set font ...
reassigning as suggested

It seems this is finally fixed with the changes in CWS ooo31gsl9 - OTOH I thought that before. Can you please have a look with that CWS whether you cans still reproduce this problem ?
pl: Sorry, still no good in CWS ooo31gsl9. Text is still clipped.
back to the font expert. This can only be a problem of dpi vs. font dpi.
PL said that the potential fix in CWS ooo31gsl9 was to always reuse the calculated resolution when initializing frames. Incidentially in CWS vcl101 I just fixed a related issue 100885 where the resolution was always recalculated when a AquaSalVirtualDevice was created. So with the fixes in CWS ooo31gsl9 and vcl101 combined the problem KSO had when he attached a big monitor while OOo was running should be gone for good. @kso: please check with the vcl101 installset (which has both fixes since it was rebased to DEV300_m46)
hdu: Sorry, still not fixed. Looks as ugly as before, even in m46 based CWS vcl101 office...
Ok, KSO sees this also without hotplugging the monitor, so the dpi-recalculation is not the problem. I had a closer look how splitter is positioned: well, let's just say there are some fancy calculations done in the SvtTemplateWindow object, which requests it's perfectly sized sub-windows to get resized to something else, less perfectly sized... @cd: reassigning to you as PB's heir
