------- Additional comments from imwit...@openoffice.org Fri May 28 07:21:33 +0000 2010 ------- It has been mentioned on many sites that formatting text vertically in OpenOffice is complicated and in some cases not practical or sufficient a method (unless one has the programming ability to accomplish such a task). It seems unnecessary to have to create a frame, anchor it to the page, resize it and then align the frame centered vertically. Other problems that come into play are when more than one column is needed. Often a column break does not properly work and the contents of one column end up in the other (requiring a hard break to balance out both since the contents within the frame cannot be aligned vertically - back to the original problem). Have I missed something? I have searched for this feature and have not found it reported as a bug or missing feature (MS Word and Lotus WordPro both have this feature - note Lotus WordPro has been a near dead project for almost a decade). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
