  Flake is bigger than KWord or KOffice. It will be used by other applicati=
ons that want an ODF rendering engine and it will be very hard to explain t=
hat the shape size is not enough for a canvas implementor to look at when d=

Please re-consider your decision choice on this Thomas. We have some real w=
orld documents we are facing issues related to this. This would be good to =
get Kword to work please propose a way to address this issue. This is relev=
ant for us to see work in KOffice.  How come you have not faced such docume=
nts in 12.5 years ? I guess we are now heading towards end user readiness a=
nd you should consider real world documents to mature KOffice and get this =
issue fixed. Lets find a solution to this one.

Negative margins have never worked in KWord, it has in its 12 ½ yeras never given us \
a significant amount of bugreports and I feel its not a feature I value enough to \
break the flake design. I was under the impression I closed all bugreports for this \
on bugzilla as &#39;wontfix&#39; if I missed one I apologize for causing you to work \
on this while I never intended KWord to go in that direction.

One solution may be that we make the auto-generated frames in KWord be full \
page-width and use the shape inset to represent the kword-page margins. But this \
solution feels like we are contorting flake for a misfeature that we can do without \
just fine.

As an extended rationale for why flake should not go in this direction;  Flake is \
bigger than KWord or KOffice. It will be used by other applications that want an ODF \
rendering engine and it will be very hard to explain that the shape size is not \
enough for a canvas implementor to look at when determining how to position the \
(text) shape in 3rd party applications canvas&#39;.

So, bottom line; please discard this review for the reasons given above.</pre>

the frame of the textshape.

This patch accomplishes that.

It also changes the way Rulers work regarding active ranges. First it now has the \
notion of an override range which the rulermanager gets from resourcemanager. This \
way the tools are now responsible for setting the (override) active range. The \
default active range is still set by the apps, (and kword now also defaults to the \
entire paper like kpresenter)

As to the draw outside i&#39;ve introduced an outlineRect() method similar to \
outline() but just a rect rather than a path.</pre>  </td>
