Bug ID: 169321
Summary: Writer frames overlap even with `Allow overlap`
disabled
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.4.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
It appears that the `Allow overlap` setting doesn't really work. More
specifically, it appears that whether two frames will overlap depends primarily
on whether they are anchored to the same paragraph (in which case they don't
overlap) or not (in which case they do overlap).
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have two frames on the same page anchoring to two different paragraphs.
2. Have a frame style with position Top and overlap disabled.
3. Apply the style to the frames
Actual Results:
The frames will layout at the top, overlapping
Expected Results:
The frames should layout at the top, but not overlap. The frames layouting at
the top while not overlapping appears to occur only when the frames are
anchored to the same paragraph, which is unexpected.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
I first noticed this behaviour on 26.2, but I can replicate it on much earlier
versions. Based on the correspondence on the forum
((https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/style-frames-to-be-at-an-edge-but-not-overlap/128613/6)),
it might potentially depend on the OS, as I use Windows, and it supposedly
works correctly on Linux.
