Summary0004105: minimal text frame dimensions for text displaying are higher than expected
DescriptionFor text to be shown, the text frame height must be much higher than the character height.
Steps To Reproduce- Open a text frame, insert characters of say 48 pt.

If the text is NOT visible:

- Enlarge the frame vertically in small steps until the characters are visible

Otherwyse:

- Reduce the frame vertically in small steps until the characters are not visible

- Observe that the limit height doesn't match the character heigh
Additional InformationThis may be problematic in the following situation:

- One has a text frame with coloured background and two colums inside
- The title for the story has no columns, but should appear to be contained on that text frame
- One creates a new frame for the title which will be stacked upon the other frame
- One has to enlarge the title frame vertically, more than the characters from the title seem to imply

--> the frames will have to overlap to produce the desired effect
TagsNo tags attached.
