This is still my opinion. I judge it to be well considered, and -at least- not just arguing for "the wrong way" as some contributors here seem to see it. How any other application does it or will do it 10 years from now isn't on my screen. > > Oh, I wrote that, and I still have questions. > > 1.

No. My words "not just funny" were expected to be understood as "deserving serious considerations". I never read anything posted by you that looked "funny" to me. Sorry for my poor English! Extremely sorry for any misunderstanding induced by my "funny wording"! > > 2. I don't understand what is your *position* that you give a rationale > below ("it does not look FUNNY" ...

The fundamental distinction between the original insertion of a header/footer and its later changes in height with respect to the interpretation of the term "margin" basically under discussion here (imo), I cannot accept under my understanding of what's logical. Also with this respect I won't figure the warrior, of course. Even inside mathematiocs it's disputed what's a proof, now and then.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
