1156366 - SVG text on a path fails to render with vertical writing mode

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: SVG, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Kew [:jfkthame]]

Bug 1153510 makes simple SVG text elements display properly with vertical writing modes. However, text on a path still does not render correctly (or at all); see testcase in attachment 8591399 [details] when a vertical mode is selected.

Attachment: testcase to experiment with writing mode and text-on-path

This is just a slightly tweaked version of the testcase from bug 1153510.

Attachment: Support vertical writing modes and upright/sideways glyph orientation in SVG text-on-a-path

With this patch to fix up DoTextPathLayout(), the testcase seems to work nicely. (Note that this is also dependent on another recent textframe fix, so it requires a tree from the last day or so for successful testing.)
