Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 98623
the "page width" zoom is not recalculated when inserting the first comment with notes2
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:19:34 UTC
To reproduce: 1) start a blank document in Writer 2) set the page zoom to "page width" (or "optimal") 3) insert the first comment/note (ctrl+alt+n) You will see that the note will be focussed, and the page will be scrolled to the right. This behavior would be correct if I was in absolute zoom mode (for example, if I set it to stay at 100% or 80% or some other value). However, when I am in "page width" or "optimal" zoom mode, I expect the zoom to be automatically recalculated when the very first note is created in a document, or when the last note is removed. The only "workaround" for this is to (un)maximize the window to force zoom recalculation. I tried searching the bug tracker for this issue but couldn't find duplicates (Issue #85841 doesn't seem to be the same problem, and it's very old).
This is related to issue 39681, but not the same. The optimal view should be updated when the content "to be shown" has changed its width.
I think too this issue 98623 is very much related to issue 39681. In my experience "page width" only recalculates when it is triggered from the outside - that is when the size of the Openoffice window itself is changed. But when it is triggered from the inside it never recalculates. That happens every time the page width of the document changes and/or when the first note is inserted or the last note is removed. A solution only in the case of notes would be beautiful but the fundamental problem would remain.
