Description: If you use the "Footer" in Impress slides and the footer area in the slide is not large enough to contain the whole footer, then the footer text is wrapped onto multiple lines. However, the line wrapping, differently from any other text element in Impress, gets applied by introducing line breaks /in the middle/ of words. For instance: Some example footer text that is so lo ng that it takes multiple lines Furthermore, alignment instructions applied to the footer area are not applied to the footer text. In other words, in the master page you can set the footer area so that it contains the <footer> label representing the footer text aligned left, center, right, etc. Yet, when the footer is displayed on the actual slides, this alignment is disregarded and the footer is always left aligned. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create new presentation 2. Go to master pages 3. Modify the "footer area" box so that it is not very large and it has some alignment (e.g. center) 4. Close master pages and create a new slide 5. Go to Insert -> Header and Footer, activate the footer and type in a long text. Actual Results: See that the footer text is broken in the middle of words and that it is invariably left aligned. Expected Results: The footer text should be broken at word ending and the alignment should be respected. Namely it should be possible to have a centerered, justified or right aligned footer text.
