--- Comment #4 from devsepp...@gmail.com --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #3) > Isn't the JustifyLinesWithShrinking just a compatibility feature without any > option to disable. It was introduced to achieve better match of document > layouts. > This is my understanding of the current situation. However, in the release notes of LO 24.2 (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/24.2) it is stated 'Note: used only for DOCX interoperability yet (including for ODT files which are converted from new DOCX files with space shrinking), but planned to be the default justification algorithm of the next major versions of LibreOffice.' > What is the benefit of making this variable? I created this issue in anticipation that this smart justification will become the default justification. I have no knowledge of how it will be implemented. Will it just replace the current justification or will it be a new separate option. I would champion the separate option solution, giving users more control. There could be variety of reasons why users might in some situations prefer the old justification. In addition, and what this issue is about, giving users possibility to adjust max shrink and space width properties, could give more advanced users to create more professional looking publications. By controlling these settings, users could have some control over space width variability between lines. The default values might be ideal in many cases, but for example narrower paragraph widths and languages other than English could benefit from modified settings. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
