Hi all,
I'm currently working on bug tdf#122899. It is about import of the shape
'arc' (= mso-spt19 = mso_sptArc). I have already found one error and
made https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/68941. This mail is about an
additional 'position' problem.
MS Office uses for the ellipse a size of width=43200 and height=43200 in
the shape internal coordinate system. It sets the viewbox so, that it is
a bounding rectangle to the current sector. Thereby left/top of this
rectangle becomes the origin.
Currently LibreOffice uses an ellipse size of width=21600 and
height=21600 and a viewbox="0 0 21600 21600", so that the viewbox
includes the entire ellipse.
Both in LibreOffice and Word the outer position (e.g. "horizontal 5cm
from left page edge") is relative to the viewbox (which is the frame
rectangle in LibreOffice).
The result of this is, that in case the bounding rectangle of the sector
has a different left/top position than the bounding rectangle of the
full ellipse, the shape gets a different position in Word than in
LibreOffice. That breaks layout.
It is not possible to change the outer position to set the sector to the
original position, because that might result in positions outside the
page. But that is not possible for text documents.
I consider to change the import so, that the viewbox only includes the
current sector not the entire ellipse. What do you think?
Kind regards
Regina
