[Issue 125183] New: shadow not working on small caps
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125183
Issue ID: 125183
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: shadow not working on small caps
Product: Writer
Version: 4.1.0
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: formatting
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: davepolit@gmail.com
Mark a word, apply format "Small Caps" as well as "Shadow". Increase
font size to 28pt so as to observe result: 2 sets of characters overlapping
each other, grey letters in foreground and black letters in background, so
the opposite of shadow effect!
(similar to resolved issue 124922 under mac os)

I can reproduce the behaviour with all versions back to 2.4 under Ubuntu. And
*independent* from small caps!
But this behaviour appears ONLY with color AUTOMATIC.
Maybe this isn't a bug rather than a feature?

Re gray shadows on black (default font color). For me this still is not right
but I trust in the comments of everyone else that it's fixed. I messed with my
B&W gamma settings a bit just to be sure, and no change.
So, who knows, an older video card etc. As the saying goes -- YMMV. :/

Made some tests on all three main plattforms, text, shadow, small caps.
Expected is gray shadow on black text.
Win: -> Okay
Mac: There was a bug in AOO410 (Herbert says) which shows black text and black
shadow, this is fixed on trunk and AOO411 -> Okay
Linux: AOO420 (trunk) -> Okay
I always get the shadow text clearly *behind* the text itself.
Changing the font color on all three systems -> the text shadow gets from gray
to black, independent of light or dark font color. Only text with text color
'automatic' seems to get the gray shadow.
Exactly the same for text on draw objects in draw/impress.
@hdu, @Olli: This might be purpose, do you know more...?

test ooxml with character shading
Using AOO 4.1.1 RC1 --- AOO411m4(Build:9774) - Rev. 1614049
2014-07-28 17:54 - Linux i686
the character shading still looks black instead of gray to me even with teh
pink font color. :( With black font the whole string looks bigger/darker but no
distinction like shading.
It could be my eyes or the way I have the scaling set on my monitor though.
Maybe someone else could take a look. Thanks.

@David: also, do you see this bug only on 4.1.1 beta, or in previous version/s
too?

Can you attach a screenshot?
What font are you using? What zoom level?
On Fedora 20, with Liberation Serif or any font I try, shadow does not work (it
has the same color as the foreground), it does not matter the font size, nor
small caps.
The bug is reproducible with 3.0.0, 3.4.1, 4.0.1, 4.1.1

This one looks then like a dup. of bug 107977 (I'm not sure if bug 107977 is a
dup. of bug 47519)

Hi Kay, please re-check comment 14. I confirm that it *is* indeed black when
any other than the default color is used - and asked some experts if this is by
purpose. To know that will be the key to decide if this is an error or someone
has made deep thoughts about that (you never know, I got surprised already ;-))

I still think it's a bug, Kay. Because in your example you have red lettering
with a very black shadow. The shadow should be grey. As I mentioned: Under
version 4.1 you get grey letters with a black shadow. It should be the
opposite. Exporting to PDF does not solve the problem.

@David -- OK, that's fine, no argument. Until I changed the letters to red, I
really could see that a shadow existed.

Document with shadow examples.
A document with shadows with small caps and regular text. Both need to be LARGE
to see the shadows. So these would not be detectable with smaller fonts.
Currently I don't see a way to change the depth of shadowing or color etc.
Leaving as UNCONFIRMED (since shadows do appear finally) but maybe change to
ENHANCEMENT?

This is a Linux bug, on Windows both black and automatic font color display a
gray shadow. Also PDF export on Linux looks right.
