Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 64669
drop caps displayed too large when "register true" activated
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
I formatted a paragraph with drop caps (2 lines). When setting the switch register-true, the caps will become greater than two line. It seems, this depends on some header-lines on the Page. I think, the drop caps should have the height of the two lines and not fill up the space resulting fron register-tru.
please attach the offending document to this issue, so that we can reproduce and fix the problem here. You can also send the document directly (mru@openoffice.org) for the case it contains confidential data. Feel free to re-open the issue when you've done. Thanks for supporting us!
Created attachment 36031 [details] Example DropCaps
Now I understand. Reopened issue.
MRU->FME: have a look at the attached document. In my opinion, it does not make sense to display the drop cap also over the spacing between the text and the heading above it.
Please see bug 115565 as well. The current layout decisions are far from optimal.
