Re: [office] Start for a document about terms relevant for layout of text documents

Hi Regina,

    
It seems to me that the text "Borders are
      not between columns or rows but inside the cells." is misleading
      since it is seems to imply the "separating" model. For the
      "collapsing" model the borders are really between cells.

      Hi,
        

        

        The text "Borders belong to cells, not to columns or rows.
        Borders are
        

        not between columns or rows but inside the cells. Border width
        is set by
        

        fo:border attributes and for the special case of border style
        double by
        

        style:border-line-width attributes, all in
        

        <style:table-cell-properties>. In case
        table:border-model="collapsing"
        

        is set for the table, each of two adjacent cells gets half of
        the
        

        calculated border width." sounds to me as if separated borders
        are
        

        supposed to be the default. I cannot find this in ODF 1.2:
        20.405 seems
        

        to indicate that there are two models, separating and
        collapsing, that
        

        are chosen by the value for table:border-model. There appears to
        be no
        

        "default" specified.
        

      
      

      As style it needs no default. Of cause, for interoperability it
      would better to define a default.
