Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 46200
Borders are not part of the elements width
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:35:55 UTC
Creating a filled element, for example a rectangle with a border of the smallest width, yields an element that consumes for example 1cm x 1cm of space. Removing the border (setting the border width to "none" or "invisible") does not necessarily remove the border but only sets it to invisible. It seems as if there is no border of width 0, so elements that have no border will not be as wide as they originally are required to be, i.e. 1cm x 1cm. This will yield problems with the grid, when layouting elements manually, i.e. they will either snap with the right border to the grid on the right side or, when moving a bit to the left, will snap to the grid along the left or bottom border of the element. It would be nice to have this implemented according to the CSS 2/3 specifications, where borders will not add to the elements width, but instead will consume space of the innerwidth of the element, in order to assure that the elements exact width and height still remains 1cm x 1cm. Would that be possible?
Reassigned.
