Description Alexandre Demers 2011-01-21 07:29:21 UTC

Under Options -> LibreOffice Writer -> AutoCaption, check LibreOffice Spreadsheet. On the right panel, the Position selection stays grey, set on Below. It should be possible to change the Position.

The idea is the following: when LibreOffice Writer Table is selected, it can be changed and set to Above. Now, most of the time, a Spreadsheet is used to display data in a table form. Since it can be a table, it should be possible to set the Position to Above to be logical with the LibreOffice Writer Table options.

If we extend the idea, it should be up to the user to make a choice if he wants to change the Position for any of the AutoCaption types. Right now, while the option is available for any type, it is only accessible by Writer Table and Writer Frame autocaptions.

Comment 1 Noel Power 2011-01-21 08:29:21 UTC

It looks like the reason there is no option for for changing the position of the associated caption is because it look like the format of the frame to hold the object ( in this case the embedded spreadsheet ) with a caption is fixed. So... imo this is not a bug but some enhancement. marking it as such. 

How easy, hard or useful ( though seems quite like a reasonable thing to be able to do to me )
