A vertically centred period (.).įrankly, I find this humorous.
They are comprised of one, that is, one character. However, I'll be attaching 3 files for your enjoyment. When was this reported? 2011? (I'm not on the page right now). How many years have you had (or anyone) to easily test this yourself. I find your complaint that no test file was provided snarky and facetious at best. > with this configuration of the title page. > report allowing to check how LibreOffice actually handle foreign documents > It is so important that there is not even test file attached to this bug (In reply to Jean-Baptiste Faure from comment #35) Period.Ī word document with a vertically centered period (.). Until it's fixed, I can screw up conversion with just one (1) character - a vertically centered '.'. Short of that, and I will continue to point out that this bug should have been solved years ago and that any claim that Libre can convert to and from doc files is utterly bogus until this is fixed.
#WORD HOW TO VERTICALLY ALIGN TEXT CODE#
Donate enough money to me so that I can take the time off necessary to learn to code (I used to know basic and Pascal) and I will fix this problem. Whenever criticism heats up, somebody always writes: Donate, fix it yourself or shut up. Since that always seems to be the escape clause, right? Donate enough to me, and I will spend 100% of the donations to teach myself the necessary code and I will fix this bug (or die trying). Have you donated to this one? If you have, then I suggest doing so again, since your last donation (if you donated) accomplished *squat*. It should just apply to the current page only and end at a page break - whether inserted manually or not and would best be accessed menu-wise through the Format - Page options. The ability to center the typed text between the top and bottom margin allows one to have a nice looking one-page letter without having to futz about with adding extra white space anywhere to even out the letter on the page. I routinely have documents (letters) where the first page is formatted with say a 2 inch top margin - sometimes they are one page, sometimes they go to two or three or more pages.
If it could be made into a command that could be assigned to a toolbar button or keyboard shortcut - that would be greatly appreciated. I would also love to see LibreOffice address this issue of centering text between the top and bottom margins without using something such as frames (which seems to not obey my bottom margin setting). I hope, now that Libre Office is competent hands, this limitation can be quickly remedied.
I marked the priority as highest and the severity as critical because it's a limitation that would appear easy to remedy and has been requested for several years: On the other hand, this basic "one click" functionality is available in Textmaker, MS Office and Corel WordPerfect. LO currently fails to convert vertically centered when inheriting a document from MS Office, WordPerfect *or* Textmaker! It also means that because LO lacks this very simple and basic functionality, it remains incompatible with Microsoft Office. I can currently boot up Virtualbox, start at instance of XP Pro, choose WordPerfect from the Start Menu, then click on Vertically Center Text with fewer mouse/key strokes than it takes to accomplish the same thing in an *already running* instance of Libre Office. Libre Office's current method (inherited from Open Office) is unwieldy, absurdly inefficient, and incompatible with (to my knowledge) every other modern Word Processor.
It should *not* be necessary to use Frames to Vertically Center Text on a page.
