------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Oct 12 02:12:40 -0700 2005 ------- Is this issue about missing "Left-to-Right (vertical)" setting in "Text direction" option from "Text Flow" tab of "Table"->"Table properties" dialog ? Now there are only "Left-to-Right" and "Right-to-Left (vertical)" options and "Right-to-Left (vertical)" works fine, but text is rotated by 270%, when most people in Europe needs 90%. I think "ms_interoperability" keyword should be added to this issue, there are problems when vertical text in MS Word Document contains more than one paragraph. Also there are strange problems, when vertical text fits on more than one line, when vertical text doesn't have paragraph break in the middle, but when (because of row height) it doesn't fit in one line, look at last tree attachments (submitted by cowmixtoo) from bug #16944 Note, this is not the same bug like when vertical text contains more than one paragraph. I'm attaching simple OpenDocument Text document with table to this bug and posting the instructions how to reproduce problems, which appear after document is saved and reopened (document looks differently before closing and after reopening). So, please open the attached document and: 1. Select all single line vertical text "Mantas eina" from the first cell of table. 2. Choose "Format"->"Character"->"Position"->"Rotation/scaling"->"0 degrees" and text becomes horizontal, but in two lines (because of the column width) - "Mantas" in the first line and "eina" in the second. 3. Select whole first row and choose "Table"->"Autofit"->"Row Height.." and type 1.8cm 4. Select again all text "Mantas eina" from the first cell of table. 5. Choose "Format"->"Character"->"Position"->"Rotation/scaling"->"90 degrees" and text becomes vertical and in two lines (because of the row height) - "Mantas" in the first line and "eina" in the second. Such multiline vertical text is often used in header of tables and it seems OpenOffice.org 2.0 works fine (I'm attaching screenshot of this, named "multiline_vertical_text_in_table-OpenOffice.org-2.0-Writer.png") if not one strange problem, which occurs when "Optimal Row Height" is set: 6. Select whole first row and choose "Table"->"Autofit"->"Optimal Row Height" - after this vertical text remains in two lines, like previously - look at attached screenshot, named "multiline_vertical_text_in_table-OpenOffice.org-2.0-Writer.png" 7. Save the document and close it. 8. Reopen the document and you see vertical text "Mantas eina" in one single line, not in two lines, like before closing - I'm attaching screenshot of this, named "bug_with_vertical_text_in_table_after_reopening-OpenOffice.org-2.0-Writer.png" Should I post these instruction as separate bugreport ? If so, what should I type in the Summary field ? Btw, when I save this table with vertical text in "MS Word 97/2000/XP" format I get horizontal text after reopening .doc file, should I file another bugreport about this ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
