Summary0011877: The baseline of the first line in a text frame should be fixed
DescriptionI think that the base line of the largest font in the first line in a text frame should be fixed in position (when 'Align to Baseline Grid' is disabled, of course) instead of aligning the top of the largest character to the top of the text frame. Moreover, the text frame should be (automatically) shrinkable up to the baseline of the last line of text without overflowing.
Steps To ReproduceCreate a text frame and type .aAÁ
The position of the baseline of this text will change with each typed character.
Additional InformationI've found quite a few open issues about overflowing text frames and baseline issues on this bug tracker. Implementing the suggestion from above would resolve most of these, including
1) Aligning the bottom of the automatically shrinked text frame to an object would mean to align the baseline of the last line of the text to that object.
2) Text frames would no longer overflow too early.
3) The baseline of a one-line-text would not change arbitrarily depending on the used characters.
TagsNo tags attached.
