Description NISZ LibreOffice Team 2020-02-05 07:29:37 UTC
Description:
In Writers Table Properties dialog the Text Flow tab has a strange looking list under Text orientation. The default value is “Use superordinate object settings” and it is the third item in the list. The second item is “Vertical (top to bottom)” and the fourth is “Vertical (bottom to top)”.
It would be more logical to have the two Vertical options next to each other and the default as last one.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert a table in Writer and open its Properties dialog
2. Go to Text Flow page and open the Text orientation dropdown

Actual Results:
The two Vertical options are not following each other.

Expected Results:
The two Vertical options should be next to each other and the “Use superordinate object settings” default should be the last.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Comment 6 Heiko Tietze 2020-02-17 13:45:37 UTC
Ideally, "Use superordinate object setting" would be the first item. But the patch is an improvement anyway. Thanks for fixing.
