Created attachment 85874 [details] This document can be used to reproduce this bug. AOO 4.1.2 - AOO412m3(Build:9782) - Rev. 1709696 AOO 4.1.3 - AOO413m1(Build:9783) - Rev. 176138 OS’s: MacOS 10.12, Win10, Win8.1 Summary: First line indent value can be set in: Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing Properties -> Paragraph. Changes made in first place are reflected in second and vice versa (the fields are interdependent). Issue: Boundary values for these fields are different. To reproduce the issue: Preconditions: 0. Create a new document. 1. Set Page Format to A4. 2. Set measurement unit to inch. Steps to reproduce: 0. Open Properties -> Paragraph. 1. In First line Indent put 6.73 ". 2. Try to increase the value. Note1: It is not possible. Max Indent is 6.73 ". 3. In First line Indent put -22.75 ". 4. Try to decrease the value. Note2: It is not possible. Min Indent is -22.75 ". 5. Open Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing. 6. First line Indent is set to 6.50 ". 7. Try to increase the value. Note3: It is not possible. Max Indent is 6.50". 8. Set First line Indent to -39.37 ". 9. Try to decrease the value. Note4: It is not possible. Min Indent is -39.37 ". Expected result: Indent in Properties -> Paragraph and in Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing store the same value. So boundaries in both places for this value also should be the same. Actual result: Boundaries in Indent in Properties -> Paragraph and Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing differ. Follow-up testing: Test1 - Enter extra-large value. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Properties -> Paragraph. 2. Enter -222222. Actual result: You’ll get -39.37 ". 4. Try to increase/decrease Value. Actual result: It’s set to -22.75 ". So, there is a chance to set max value from Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing can be used for Indent in Properties -> Paragraph Test2 - Change Page Width and check if it affects First Line indent value. Steps to repro: 1. Open Format -> Page… and change Format to A3. 2. Go to Properties -> Paragraph and check boundaries for First Line Indent Result: Max = 6.73”, Min = -22,75”. 3. Go to Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing and check boundaries for First Line Indent. Result: Max = 9.92 “, Min = -39.37 ". Actual result: First Line Indent value in Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing is related to Page Width. First Line Indent value in Properties -> Paragraph is same for other Page Width.
The document attached to reproduce the issue does not appear to be working and the text included for the third line where it says 'Here indent is 6.50"' is incorrect as the indent is actually 6.73" which is the same as on line 1 and line 2. My configuration is: Windows 10.0.14393 AOO413m1(Build:9783) - Rev. 1761381 - 2016-09-29 02:39:19 I also attempted to reproduce the bug according to the instructions with a new blank document. I will only list steps that behavior was different, unexpected, or wrong. Step 4: I was able to decrease the First Line Indent below -22.75 to -22.83, but immediately it became the Max Indent of 6.73 ". But -22.75 is the lowest value that would remain unchanged as the First Line Indent. I can confirm that the bug is reproducible with my configuration according to the instructions and that the maximum/minimum values in the properties/paragraph pane and the format/paragraph dialog are different. I can also confirm that setting the value of the First Line Indent in the format/paragraph dialog box below the minimum for the properties/paragraph side pane causes the value in the properties/paragraph side pane to change the maximum value of 6.73" instead of the previously negative that was allowed by the format/paragraph dialog box. To reproduce the above mentioned issue: Preconditions: 0. Create a new document. 1. Set Page Format to A4. 2. Set measurement unit to inch. Steps to reproduce: 0. Open Properties -> Paragraph. 1. In First line Indent put 6.73 ". 2. Try to increase the value. Note1: It is not possible. Max Indent is 6.73 ". 3. Open Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing. 4. Set First line Indent to -39.37 ". 5. Try to decrease the value. Note4: It is not possible. Min Indent is -39.37 ". 6. Click 'OK' on the Paragraph dialog box 7. In the Properties -> Paragraph section, the value for the First Line Indent is now 6.14". 8. Open Format -> Paragraph -> Indents & Spacing and observe the value of the First Line Indent is now 6.14". I've added some screenshots of each step. Hope that helps.
