Hello @ll,
If you go to
https://translations.documentfoundation.org/de/libo_help/translate.html#filter=incomplete&unit=45962232,
then the text reads
<quote>
If two adjacent text ranges' all border properties are identical
(same style, width, color, padding and shadow), then those two
ranges will be considered to be part of the same border group and
rendered within the same border in the document.
</quote
. I am not sure, what this text wants to tell me ... 
Would it be
the same as
<quote>
If two adjacent text ranges share a border, all border properties
are identical (same style, width, color, padding and shadow). Those
two ranges will be considered to be part of the same border group
and rendered within the same border in the document.

? I seem to understand, what this text wants to tell the well-
disposed reader / translator, but ... It sounds a little bit strange
to me ... 
Or am I completely wrong here with my version of the
text? If I am, it would be nice, if someone can explain it for me,
as I want to translate as precise as possible ...
Sorry for the inconvenience
Thomas.

I think that this is an object oriented text
May be simplified : if two adjacent text ranges share a border, the two
borders properties are identical. There will be one group of borders for
the two ranges of text and only one border rendered (drawn) in the document.

O.K. That was my guess, too ...

the two borders properties are identical. There will be one group
of borders for the two ranges of text and only one border rendered
(drawn) in the document.
Thanks for your explanation 
But how should we handle this text?
Open a feature request to improve it?
Thanks again
Thomas.

No, not the same. It says: If two overlapping/touching portions of
text have both (individually) a border with the same properties
assigned, then those two textportions will be treated as one single
range with one single border.
Similar to paragraph borders are merged when paragraphs with border
are touching, the same occurs for character borders.

should make it more clear. Esp. the effect caused by different text-heights.
The english text is awkward, as there is a bug in word oder (at least
to my non-native-english-ear):
"If two adjacent text ranges' all border properties are identical"
is weired, to be it should be
"If two adjacent text ranges' border properties are all identical"
or simpler, although less explicit re "all":
"If two adjacent text ranges have the same border properties"

ah, O.K.

I will have a look at it later ...

Thank you for your explanation

Hi
I much prefer the 2nd alternative
"If two adjacent text ranges have the same border properties"
It looks much more elegant and makes much more sense. The original is
really difficult to understand.
