Summary0016777: positive baseline offset pushes next paragraph one line down, Scribus 1.5.2 or higher
DescriptionI have put all my text on a baseline grid of 4mm/11,34pt. I want to use baseline offset for my header text (17 pt) to set the top of the header text at the same height as the text of the body text in the next column. I need a baseline offset of 30 percent to get this effect. When I use a baseline offset of more than 1 percent the header text is put the right percentage up, but the body text underneath the header is pushed down 1 line.

I have tested the baseline offset in different versions of Scribus on Windows 10. I was not able to get older, working versions of Scribus for linux.
In the versions 1.4.8 and 1.5.1 the offset reacts as I expected, the header text is placed as expected and de body text keeps its place.
From version 1.5.2 the offset does not react as I expected, the header text is placed as expected but the body text is pushed 1 line down.
See the attached screenshots. I have also attached the Scribus document I used.
Steps To ReproduceOpen document in Scribus 1.5.1 or older: no error found
Open document in Scribus 1.5.2 or later: error found, body text pushed down 1 line.
See attached document and screenshots
Used paragraph styles:
- body text, aligned to baseline grid, 9 pt Lato Regular
- header text, aligned to baseline grid, baseline offset +30%, 17 pt Montserrat Bold

    …In the versions 1.4.8 and 1.5.1 the offset reacts as I expected…
    …From version 1.5.2 the offset does not react as I expected, the header text is placed as expected but the body text is pushed 1 line down…

    Should I report this as a bug?

just tested the sample with scribus1.5.9.svn and 1.7.0.svn (r25074) – the same effect.
up to an offset of 6% the body text stays put. but from 7% to the max. value that keeps the header inside of the frame, the body text moves one grid line down. (with a higher offset it moves another line, but this is expected…)
