Bug Description
In Inkscape 0.47 when I select a text object and a shape object
and press Alt+W (filling text into a shape/frame) all end-lines of text
are deleted. Fortunately if I have that text saved elsewhere, I can copy/paste
it into already shaped text object again.
summary: |
- newlines are deleted when filling text into shape + newlines are ignored when filling text into shape |

reproduced with Inkscape 0.47 and 0.47+devel r9299 on OS X 10.5.8
All newlines of the text are ignored and the text is rendered as a single (flowed-text) paragraph. The original formatting is preserved in the <flowPara> element (as can be verified in the XML editor) and only lost when the text is 'unflowed' (as described in the status line message of 'Unflow' and in the manual page <http:// tavmjong. free.fr/ INKSCAPE/ MANUAL/ html/Text- Flow.html>).
comment in the source code for 'Flow into Frame':
// FIXME: transfer all formatting! and convert newlines into flowParas!
