Created attachment 124047 [details] Document illustrating the reported behaviour Hello, I noticed a strange bug. To reproduce : * create a new document * enter a title on the first line : « my_title_is_this_title » * apply the title style to this sentence * without hitting carrier return (important), create a frame. The anchoring is « to paragraph » and you must choose « no adaptation » for the contour. Try to create a large enough frame, like 80% of paragraph width and 10% of paragraph height. Here a small vid that illustrates this behaviour. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dugKUjNSMs&feature=youtu.be
Not sure, if bug. It is still the same paragraph. If you only have 1 column, there is no delay in showing the frame bg as colored.
Yes, indeed. It is clear that the frame inherits the background color of the title, since there is no carrier return between the two. However, the question is « does a frame should inherit the properties of the closest paragraph ? ». I am wondering why this frame does not have its own « style » definition. A way to adress this bug would be to separate the style definition of the two objects (title and frame). Depending on the point of view it may be a bug or not. From my user point of view, I tell the pupils I teach to avoid breaking lines unnecessary. Of course, I apply this advice to myself and I try to avoid breaking line when it is not needed. So here, it is a bug. The title line is expanding background way above the single line it is occupying, from a user point of view this is probably not wishable. From the designer point of view, it *could* be a normal behaviour, although I think I hitted a border case not necessarily planned in the original design. I have no idea if this design *should* be corrected as a bug from the initial pattern in LibreOffice, or even if it could be corrected without major design breaking (the « I'm not an expert, sorry » part of my message.)
Hi David, "I am wondering why this frame does not have its own « style » definition. A way to adress this bug would be to separate the style definition of the two objects (title and frame)." well, sadly I cannot read which style is applied as the quality is too low of the video. Very likely your style (or the standard style) depends on the "Title"-style. Please modify your table-style to be inherit from "Standard" and retry your example. If that works as expected, well then it is clearly not a bug in the software itself but a modification of the standard layouts should be made.
sry, I just saw that you had also attached your document. * you creates a paragraph (title) and hits before enter (virtually) by inserting a table * which has the same style then applied * https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dugKUjNSMs&feature=youtu.be 1:30 (the background color) The problem here is that your table style is depend on standard and both have a transparent background and thus you see the grey background of the title style... How this can be changed in a developmental way is now the biggest question
Any inserted frame has no background color assigned to it. Simply going into Area tab of Insert > Frame Frame or Format > Frame and Object > Properties and set the fill color from None to Color and selecting a color.
