Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 47088
Math Object doesn't anchor to cell
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:13:34 UTC
If you enter a math object into a cell it doesn't anchor to it. If you resize the cell it doesn't resize with it. I believe this worked in M79. will attach file

confirmed with m91 too Adam M.
It doesn't work with m79 either. so maybe I was fooling myself that it did work at one point in time. What I am looking for is the math object should be able to be treated as a character. So it moves with text being put before it etc. This helps line up the math objects with your sentences. So, it might be an RFE. Adam M.
Ok, reflaged as enhancement and send to requirements team. IMHO this is not necessary because Calc isn't a wordprocessor. You do not have any paragraph settings either. So the Math Object or every other Object can and should only be anchored to the Page or the cell. Frank
Ok understood, but if the object is inside the cell and it's set to anchor to cell and then you resize the cell shouldn't the object stay in the cell? Adam M.
redndahead: yes. Here's the requirements: when an object is flagged as Anchor To Cell, it should <em>stay within the cell no matter what you do to the cell</em>, i.e. Do The Expected Thing. Examples: - insert a new row or column (supported) - Manually resize a column width (supported) - Manually resize a row height (broken) - Change the font size of the Default style (broken) - Deleting a row or column should delete the object (broken)

`a.ods' shows a current issue with row resizing in Calc. Load it, and notice that a rectangle object is located within cell B2. Resize Row 1. You'd expect the rectangle to move so that it's inside the new cell B2 position, but it doesn't move at all.
Created attachment 49016 [details] Partial Patch for Row Resizes, Font Changes
The attached sc-object-row-position.diff patch fixes: - Manually resize a row height (broken) - Change the font size of the Default style (broken) The only thing remaining is to delete objects when their containing row or column is deleted.
Hi Niklas, please have a look at this one. Frank
Created attachment 49258 [details] Updated sc-object-row-position.diff.
The 2007-10-30 sc-object-row-position.diff file implements deletion of drawing objects within a column/row when the containing column/row is deleted. This completes the remaining Do The Expected Thing items.
m47 has a slightly different solution for the row heights, for issue 94991. The "delete objects" part needs some extension to handle undo correctly. I'll look at that later.
