Hi there,

I'm working on a new feature and I'd like to ask for some advise about the UI 
part. The feature I'm speaking about is text vertical alignment for frames (Insert 
-> Frame). This text alignment works for drawing elements (shapes, text boxes) 
and for table cells, but not for frames.

I think we can use the same combo box which we use for table  (Table context menu -> 
Table -> Text flow -> Alignment). I see two places where it can be added:
     1. In Frame dialog -> Type tab: http://people.inf.elte.hu/zotsaai/type.png
     2. In Frame dialog -> Options tab: 
http://people.inf.elte.hu/zotsaai/option.png

I changed the label from "Alignment" to "Text alignment" because it can be 
ambiguous in the new context.

So I have these ideas, but I need ux guys' suggestions for final decision.

It is not clear, what the new property does.
* A frame can contain nearly a whole document including headings, paragraph, tables, graphic, or sections.
* The content of a frame may float to a linked frame.
* The height of a frame is often fitting to content.
* The frame content is sensible to the compatibility settings regarding spacing.
* "Register true" might be enabled.

So what is "vertical alignment" specified to do?

Exists an attribute for this in ODF?

Kind regards
Regina
