Summary0014668: Adjust frame height to text fails if frame is not tall enough to display text.
DescriptionThe frame height until is bug has two components. If the frame has a single line but the frame is not tall enough to show it then 'Adjust frame to text height fails. If the text is multi-line but the frame is high enough to display at least one line the frame height will be adjusted so that just that line is displayed any other lines are ignored. Finally if all the lines in the frame are displayed selecting 'Adjust frame height to text' causes the frame height to be correctly set but causes the last character on the line to be deleted.
Because of the character deletion I have set this issue to major status.
Steps To Reproduce To reproduce, create a frame and add two lines of text. Centre the first line and left justify the second. Adjust the frame height so that only a single line is displayed. Select 'Adjust frame height to text' the frame will adjust itself to the single line displayed the second line will be ignored. Re-adjust the frame so that both lines are displayed and select 'Adjust frame height to text' the frame will be resized to both lines of text BUT the last character of the second line will be deleted.
Additional InformationThe character deletion may be the same thing that is happening in issue 0014666

Further investigation showed that the last character was not deleted but hidden. Increasing the height of the frame slightly as described in issue 0014666 restored the character. Adding a newline to the end of the text made no difference.

>> If the text is multi-line but the frame is high enough to display at least one line the frame height will be adjusted so that just that line is displayed any other lines are ignored.

This is expected behavior. Adjusting height by taking into account all text would generally not work for linked frames.

>> Finally if all the lines in the frame are displayed selecting 'Adjust frame height to text' causes the frame height to be correctly set but causes the last character on the line to be deleted.

Unable to produce with current code. Please test with latest code before submitting bugs. 1.5.2 is outdated for us and 1.5.3.svn text layout code has considerably changed since 1.5.2.

Well ok but 1.53svn is not a released version so it's never going to be used by the majority. I'll build it and test anyway though.

Ok I have built 1.53svn and run the same tests. The nature of the bug has changed fitting the frame of a single line now renders the text invisible unless the line spacing is set to 'automatic line spacing'; with this setting it works. If the line spacing is set to 'align to baseline grid' or 'fixed line spacing' the frame is made too small and the text rendered invisible. If a second line is added left justified and the style for each line fitting the frame causes the second line of text to disappear irrespective of the line spacing setting. In summary then the only circumstance where a single line will not be deleted is when the text is set to 'automatic line spacing' and this will only work with a single line of text. I agree that the option should be disabled if the frame contains multiple lines and is linked to another but I see no reason why it should not work in a single frame with multiple lines of text.

i can confirm the error with 'bugtest.sla' with scribus 1.5.3-r21794 on macos 10.11.6. (fonts replaced to 'linux biolinum o', as i don't have the originally used ones…)

some more strange things:

when i try to adjust he frame, it cuts the last line, but doesn't adjust properly to the first one. but when i tell scribus to adjust the already changed frame, id adjusts to the first line.

i then narrowed the frame width to have fife lines of text and repeated the experiment. now scribus 'eats' one line after another, always with some spare room below the last displayed line, until it stops with two lines and the frane ending just under the second one.

This is also happen to Arabic text. I develop a small patch to fix this problem.

@jghali please test & merge.

to be clear my patch fix this problem only:
