            Bug ID: 163990
           Summary: Wrap text + Resize to fit text in drawing object
                    doesn't do what it says
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 25.2.0.0 alpha0+
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

For a drawing object - the two phrases "Word-wrap text in shape" and "Resize
shape to fit object" are contradictory: Either the size is fixed and the text
is adapted to it, or the text is fixed and the size is adapted to it.

However - we can toggle both of them independently. The state of both of them
being toggled is that:

* The object _width_ is set arbitrarily by the user
* The text wraps according to object width (usual "Word-wrap text in shape)
* The object _height_ is adjust to fit the height of the wrapped text.

This is both surprising and confusing. In fact, the two toggles are not
semantically adequate for representing the possible states w.r.t. wrapping and
resizing height and width. We should have something else, e.g.:

* A 4-option drop-down list
* Labels regarding resizing will change when text wrapping is eableed.
* Something else
