Layout: where a page ends inside a table row, the closing border has its room, and a nested row that can't split goes on whole (#6638) - #6640
Where a page ends inside a table row, Word closes the table there, and the border it closes with needs its room on the page. A row that fits whole kept that room (RowLayout::edge); the part of a row split between its lines did not, unless the row was the table's last, and neither did the rows of a table in a cell. Such a nested row was also cut wherever the page ended. Word moves it on whole when it cannot split: one line a cell, an exact height, or a least height that no longer fits.
The cases of #6638's file (Word for Windows 16.0.20625, compatibility mode 15; borders of 0.5 pt unless the case says otherwise):

This branch includes #6545, merged in as it stands: it says which border closes a table at a page's end (the table's bottom border, not the inside one), and this change keeps room for that border in two more places. Without it the room is the inside border's, which is right only while the two are alike. When #6545 is merged this shrinks to its own commit, 5b6efefc.
What changes, in crates/layout/src/:
table_flow.rs: place_table splits a row at the room left less its edge (part_room), and row_can_start counts edge for a row that fits whole, as the placing loop does.
boxes.rs, table.rs: a cell's box hands the rows of its tables up to the row's layout (InnerRow: the table's path and the row's number, as its Placed::Cells have them; the edge of its own layout; whether it never splits; its least height). Rows of tables deeper in are carried along.
table.rs, split_row_with: a line of a table in a cell stays above its table's closing border (inner_line_split). A nested row that starts above the limit, does not fit with that border and cannot keep a part goes on whole (inner_rows_going): its text, and its area, shading and borders with what is under it in the cell (Gone), from its top. The border above it stays on the page as the one its table closes with, unless it was the table's first row. Each table in the row is judged by its own rows: two tables side by side in one row break at different heights.
split_row_through splits such rows too. place_table falls back to it on a fresh page, where a row that would keep nothing has to split somewhere, as before.
widows_empty_a_cell is the widow-control check of split_row_with moved out as it was, to keep that function under the complexity limit.
Tests, in crates/layout/src/tests/closing_border_room.rs; each pushes a table down a page in steps of 0.1 pt and looks at the last layout that keeps a row or a line there:
the_part_of_a_split_row_keeps_room_for_the_closing_border: the third line of a six-line row with borders of 1.5 pt makes its last stand 1.5 pt above the page's bottom, first of two rows or the only one. Without the change: "2 row(s): the line's last stand is 0 pt above the bottom".
a_nested_row_stays_where_its_tables_closing_border_fits_too: the third nested row needs 2 pt under it with nested borders of 1.5 pt and 1 pt with 0.5 pt; the nested table's last row only the outer band. Without: "borders of 1.5 pt: the row's last stand is 0.5 pt above the bottom".
a_nested_row_of_a_set_height_goes_on_whole: at-least and exact rows are never on two pages; where the page's bottom runs through one, neither its text nor its area stays, it goes on as tall as it is, and the border between it and the row above is on both pages; a row of 300 pt with 120 pt of room goes on whole with one line or twelve. Without: "AtLeast: the row's last stand is 0 pt above the bottom".
a_nested_row_of_several_lines_splits_between_them_above_the_closing_border: a two-line row keeps its first line with 0.3 pt to spare and nothing with 0.3 pt too little. Without: "-0.3 pt to spare: [1, 1]".
a_nested_cell_cut_by_the_page_bottom_keeps_its_rest (in tests.rs) made its nested cell 300 pt tall with an exact row height, which Word moves on whole (R06). The cell is now that tall by the space after its second line, so the test still cuts a nested cell at the page's bottom and checks what it was written for.
cargo test -p wordcraft-layout --lib: 719 passed, 3 failed: auto_hyphenation_breaks_long_words, fragmented_hidden_text_lays_out_like_the_visible_text, hyphenation_and_proofing_follow_each_runs_language. They fail the same way on main in my container, which has no hyphenation patterns.
I did not run the full cargo xtask ci.

91 insurance documents filled with made-up data, each word's position compared with Word's PDF:
On top of my other open fixes 32 change. Two get closer and none further: the form with the list of fifty dates loses its 17 words on a wrong page and the 650 that stood a row too high (708 words more than 1 pt off become 58), and another form gets 704 words closer. Across the 91, the words on a wrong page go from 28 to 11 of 438 101.
On main 34 change: 6 closer, 5 further, 2 even, 21 with no word moved. There 67 of the 91 have words on wrong pages for other reasons, so a row more or less at a page's end lands closer or further by what else is off above it. Four of the five are the first point below: every word that moves in them moves by 0.5 pt.
After the review (90e29607)
The four findings were right, and going through them with Word showed two more things the first commit had wrong. What changed:
Which lines of a nested row stay is asked of the split itself (part_splits, in place of inner_line_split): widow and orphan control has had its say, the lines stay above the row's own bottom margin (InnerRow::below) as well as the closing border, and the last paragraph of a nested cell needs its space after. A row left with no line goes on whole; one that keeps a line splits.
An at-least row's least height is the one it is laid out with, the cell margins and borders on top of the height asked for (RowLayout::least, from layout_table).
A row that starts in the outer row's bottom band goes on whole too, from its own top.
What goes on with a row is one region a table, so two tables side by side in a cell break each at its own row.
Floating pictures and their frames, turned text and a cell's background picture go on with their row. For pictures and shapes that means the ones that lie within the row; one that reaches past its edges is placed as before, by whether it fits on the page.
A cell that starts with a row going on whole keeps nothing, so the row around it moves on whole. This is the one I had missed: the first commit moved the nested row on and left the text beside it behind, where Word takes the whole row on.
That last point also means the numbers above were too kind. They count the rows and lines of the nested table only. Counting every word of #6638's file, 264 of its 899 words were still on another page than in Word after the first commit (main: 280): the text beside the row in R06 and R07. With 90e29607 none is.

The 20 left are two other rules, both on main and neither a nested row: 15 pages are a table's only row of an exact height, under which Word adds the table's bottom border (the last point of "Not done here"), and 5 are an at-least row of the table itself, which Word moves on whole until its height with the cell margins fits (60 + 20 + 0.5 pt: whole with 78 pt of room, split with 81), where short_of_min in place_table compares the height asked for. I will file both.
Tests added, in closing_border_room.rs; all eight fail on the first commit:
the_last_paragraph_of_a_nested_cell_needs_its_space_after: the first four rows of the table above. Without: "2 lines: [2, 0]".
a_nested_at_least_row_needs_its_least_height_with_the_cell_margins: whole with 62, 70 and 81 pt of room, split with 83. Without: "62 pt of room: [3, 9]".
a_row_goes_on_whole_when_the_nested_row_its_cell_starts_with_does: none of twelve lines stays beside a nested row of 300 pt. Without: 7 stay.
widow_control_takes_a_nested_row_on_whole: two and three lines, widow control on and off. Without: "what stays of its area".
what_a_nested_row_holds_goes_on_with_it: a floating picture with its frame, and a cell's background picture.

a_nested_cell_cut_by_the_page_bottom_keeps_its_rest now checks what Word does with its cell: the first line stays, and the second goes on with the space after it.
Checked for 90e29607: cargo fmt --all -- --check; cargo clippy -p wordcraft-layout --all-targets -- -D warnings; cargo test -p wordcraft-layout --lib: 727 passed, the same 3 hyphenation tests fail. I did not run the full cargo xtask ci.
The 91 insurance documents, each word's position compared with Word's PDF: merged with my other open fixes, this commit and #6580's 9d303819 together move no word in any of them. That is with the rows that go on whole left out of #6580's count (see Overlaps); without that, one form has a centred label 5.2 pt low beside a nested table that breaks across the page.
The part of a nested row left on a page is drawn down to the page's bottom, as the part of any split row is on main. Word ends it under the lines it keeps, or at its least height for an at-least row (80.5 pt in the file with margins of 10 pt), and closes the nested table there with its border. Close split table fragments at fitted content #2493 closes a split row's part at its content and would be the place for it.
On the page a nested row goes on to, Word starts its text below the nested cell's top margin again; here it starts at the top of what is left of the cell (10.5 pt higher in that file). The row's own cells get their margin on a continuation (CellPart::top); nested ones would need the same.
A row of an exact height at the end of its table: Word adds the table's bottom border under it (a table of one exact row of 20 pt with 0.5 pt borders is 20.5 pt tall, 21.5 pt with 1.5 pt borders); here the table ends with the row. It showed up in the same files and I will file it separately.
An at-least row of the table itself is moved on whole by the height asked for (short_of_min), where Word counts the cell margins and borders with it, as for the nested row here. On main; I will file it separately.
Overlaps:
Layout: a table row at the top of a page opens with the border of a first row (#6592) #6594 rebuilds the same part of split_row_with (the borders a continuation opens with, nested_openers). The two meet in the loop that hands items to the two parts and in the split's signature; I have them merged locally (761 layout tests pass, 3 fail as above) and will merge main into whichever is second.
…er, not the inside one (storytold#6544)
A row that another row follows needed room under it for the border
between the two. Where a table breaks across pages Word closes the
part on the page with the table's bottom border, or the cells' own
bottom border, and keeps room for that one; the inside border is not
drawn there and needs none.
The room under a row that may end a page is now taken from the border
the row would have as the table's last: with inside borders alone the
last row may end at the margin, and with a wider border round the
table it ends that border's width above it. Tables whose borders are
all alike break as before.
Fixesstorytold#6544
…its room, and a nested row that can't split goes on whole (storytold#6638)
Word closes a table where a page ends inside one of its rows, and the border
it closes with needs its room there. A row that fits whole kept that room
(`RowLayout::edge`); the part of a row split between its lines did not, unless
the row was the table's last, and neither did the rows of a table in a cell.
Such a nested row was also cut wherever the page ended, where Word moves it on
whole when it has nothing to split between, is of an exact height or is short
of its least height.
- `place_table` splits a row at the room left less its `edge`.
- A cell's box carries the rows of its tables (`InnerRow`: the room under the
row, whether it may split, its least height) to the row's layout.
- `split_row_with` keeps a nested line above its table's closing border, and
moves a nested row that cannot stay on whole with its area, shading and
borders, each table in the row by its own rows. The border above it stays
as the one the table closes with.
- On a fresh page a row that would keep nothing still splits
(`split_row_through`).
Measured in Word for Windows, the room moved in steps of 0.1 pt, 180 pages.
Table layout now reserves closing-border space beneath split rows. It records nested-row constraints and uses them to decide whether nested content can split or must move whole. Regression tests and layout-parity notes cover border clearance and nested-row pagination.

Full details: Title check
Explanation
The title names the main change: a page break inside a table row now reserves room for the closing border, and a nested row that cannot split moves whole to the next page. The raw summary and objectives both center on these behaviors, and the linked issue #6638 requests the same. The title is long, but it stays specific and accurate.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changes stay within #6638's scope. They cover table-row page splitting, nested-row metadata passed to the outer row, the closing-border room, the widow and orphan check moved into widows_empty_a_cell, related tests, and a layout-parity document update that records this behavior. The merge of #6545 supplies the table's closing border at a page end, which the issue's differing-border cases need. The PR states this inclusion and how it reduces later. The tests.rs change keeps the purpose of a_nested_cell_cut_by_the_page_bottom_keeps_its_rest. Overlaps with #6594, #6586, #6580, #2493 and #2607 are merge concerns, not unrelated functional changes. Items listed under "Not done here" are excluded from this PR and do not count as out-of-scope changes. No unrelated functional change was identified in the reviewed material. The incremental diff since the previous reviewed heads was not re-read.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Directly linked issue #6638 is the only active target. Its coding requirements are: (1) reserve closing-border room under a split row fragment, including non-last rows; (2) carry nested-table row height and border needs into page splitting; (3) move rows that cannot split, including rows with exact or minimum heights that do not fit, to the next page intact; (4) match Word in the repro cases.
Requirements 1 and 2 show implementation evidence. table_flow.rs subtracts RowLayout::edge from the room before a split (part_room) and counts edge in row_can_start. table.rs (part_splits, inner_rows_going, split_row_through) and boxes.rs (InnerRow metadata) handle nested rows. Tests in closing_border_room.rs cover these cases.
Requirement 3 is not met for top-level at-least rows. The PR states that short_of_min in place_table compares the height asked for, without the cell margins and borders. The author's Word measurements show Word moves such a row on whole until its height with margins and borders fits (60 + 20 + 0.5 pt: whole with 78 pt of room, split with 81). The reviewed code splits it at 78 pt. The issue names minimum heights that do not fit as a case that must move intact. The nested at-least row fix (RowLayout::least) does not cover this top-level case.
Evidence limit: the figures are the author's self-reported Word measurements. They were not re-measured here. The incremental diff since the previous reviewed heads was not re-read; this assessment relies on the PR description and raw summary for the post-review changes.
Resolution
Apply the margin and border handling used for nested at-least rows (RowLayout::least) to top-level at-least rows in place_table (short_of_min). Compare the row's least height with its cell margins and borders added. Add a regression test in closing_border_room.rs with a top-level at-least row of about 60 pt with cell margins of 20 pt and borders of 0.5 pt. It must move whole with 78 pt of room and split only from 81 pt, matching the Word measurement recorded in the PR.

Review comments at @crates/layout/src/table.rs:
- Line 985: Update the fallback branch in the nested-row whole-movement decision
so pictures and their associated Placed::Object hit-test frames move with the
row’s visual content. Ensure they follow the same whole-movement decision and
are not left behind when the row moves to the continuation.
- Line 1086: Update the movement-region aggregation around the `Gone` rectangle
so independent nested tables retain separate regions and ownership instead of
being merged into one bounding rectangle. Preserve the existing per-table move
boundaries so `Gone::takes` and `inner_line_split` make consistent decisions for
each table’s cells, shading, and text.
- Line 1078: The keeps_part predicate incorrectly accepts a partial row when
widow/orphan control disallows the proposed line split. Update it to use the
same split-permission logic as line_split, so a split retaining only the first
line of a two-line paragraph is rejected and the nested row moves intact.
- Line 1078: Update the nested minimum check near `keeps_part` to use the
resolved minimum that includes margins and border bands, rather than the raw
`n.least` value. Preserve the existing fit and split conditions while ensuring a
nested row is not kept when its full required minimum exceeds the available
space.
- Line 1079: Update the whole-movement condition around `band.top`, `limit`,
`fits(band.bottom)`, and `keeps_part` to include unsplittable rows that cross
the drawing cut even when their tops are below the text limit. Move the row
geometry starting from its actual `band.top`, rather than the text limit.

…eally keep, and takes the row around it along when its cell would be left empty (storytold#6638)
Review of the first commit and four more Word measurements.
- Which lines of a nested row stay is asked of the split itself
(`part_splits`): widow and orphan control has had its say, the lines stay
above the row's own bottom margin as well as the closing border, and the
last paragraph of a nested cell needs its space after. A row left with no
line goes on whole; one that keeps a line splits.
- An at-least row's least height is the one it is laid out with, the cell
margins and borders on top of the height asked for (`RowLayout::least`).
- A row that starts in the outer row's bottom band goes on whole too, from
its own top: no fragment of its area stays.
- What goes on with a row is one region a table, so two tables side by side
in a cell break each at its own row.
- Floating pictures and their frames, turned text and a cell's background
picture go on with their row.
- A cell that starts with a row going on whole keeps nothing: the row around
it moves on whole, as Word does, instead of leaving the text beside it
behind.
Measured in Word for Windows: of two one-line paragraphs in a nested cell,
the second with 280 pt after it, the first stays; a nested row of at least
60 pt with cell margins of 10 pt goes on whole with 81 pt of room and splits
with 83; with widow control a paragraph of two lines takes its row on where
only its first line fits; beside long text, a cell starting with a nested row
of 300 pt takes the whole row on with 120 pt of room.

Apply the margin and border handling used for nested at-least rows
(`RowLayout::least`) to top-level at-least rows in `place_table`
(`short_of_min`). Compare the row's least height with its cell margins and
borders added. Add a regression test in `closing_border_room.rs` with a
top-level at-least row of about 60 pt with cell margins of 20 pt and borders of
0.5 pt. It must move whole with 78 pt of room and split only from 81 pt,
matching the Word measurement recorded in the PR.

Fixes #6638.
Where a page ends inside a table row, Word closes the table there, and the border it closes with needs its room on the page. A row that fits whole kept that room (
RowLayout::edge); the part of a row split between its lines did not, unless the row was the table's last, and neither did the rows of a table in a cell. Such a nested row was also cut wherever the page ended. Word moves it on whole when it cannot split: one line a cell, an exact height, or a least height that no longer fits.The cases of #6638's file (Word for Windows 16.0.20625, compatibility mode 15; borders of 0.5 pt unless the case says otherwise):
mainThis branch includes #6545, merged in as it stands: it says which border closes a table at a page's end (the table's bottom border, not the inside one), and this change keeps room for that border in two more places. Without it the room is the inside border's, which is right only while the two are alike. When #6545 is merged this shrinks to its own commit,

crates/layout/src/:table_flow.rs:place_tablesplits a row at the room left less itsedge(part_room), androw_can_startcountsedgefor a row that fits whole, as the placing loop does.boxes.rs,table.rs: a cell's box hands the rows of its tables up to the row's layout (InnerRow: the table's path and the row's number, as itsPlaced::Cells have them; theedgeof its own layout; whether it never splits; its least height). Rows of tables deeper in are carried along.table.rs,split_row_with: a line of a table in a cell stays above its table's closing border (inner_line_split). A nested row that starts above the limit, does not fit with that border and cannot keep a part goes on whole (inner_rows_going): its text, and its area, shading and borders with what is under it in the cell (Gone), from its top. The border above it stays on the page as the one its table closes with, unless it was the table's first row. Each table in the row is judged by its own rows: two tables side by side in one row break at different heights.split_row_throughsplits such rows too.place_tablefalls back to it on a fresh page, where a row that would keep nothing has to split somewhere, as before.widows_empty_a_cellis the widow-control check ofsplit_row_withmoved out as it was, to keep that function under the complexity limit.Tests, in
crates/layout/src/tests/closing_border_room.rs; each pushes a table down a page in steps of 0.1 pt and looks at the last layout that keeps a row or a line there:the_part_of_a_split_row_keeps_room_for_the_closing_border: the third line of a six-line row with borders of 1.5 pt makes its last stand 1.5 pt above the page's bottom, first of two rows or the only one. Without the change: "2 row(s): the line's last stand is 0 pt above the bottom".a_nested_row_stays_where_its_tables_closing_border_fits_too: the third nested row needs 2 pt under it with nested borders of 1.5 pt and 1 pt with 0.5 pt; the nested table's last row only the outer band. Without: "borders of 1.5 pt: the row's last stand is 0.5 pt above the bottom".a_nested_row_of_a_set_height_goes_on_whole: at-least and exact rows are never on two pages; where the page's bottom runs through one, neither its text nor its area stays, it goes on as tall as it is, and the border between it and the row above is on both pages; a row of 300 pt with 120 pt of room goes on whole with one line or twelve. Without: "AtLeast: the row's last stand is 0 pt above the bottom".a_nested_row_of_several_lines_splits_between_them_above_the_closing_border: a two-line row keeps its first line with 0.3 pt to spare and nothing with 0.3 pt too little. Without: "-0.3 pt to spare: [1, 1]".a_nested_cell_cut_by_the_page_bottom_keeps_its_rest(intests.rs) made its nested cell 300 pt tall with an exact row height, which Word moves on whole (R06). The cell is now that tall by the space after its second line, so the test still cuts a nested cell at the page's bottom and checks what it was written for.Checked:

There 67 of the 91 have words on wrong pages for other reasons, so a row more or less at a page's end lands closer or further by what else is off above it. Four of the five are the first point below: every word that moves in them moves by 0.5 pt.After the review (
90e29607)The four findings were right, and going through them with Word showed two more things the first commit had wrong. What changed:
part_splits, in place ofinner_line_split): widow and orphan control has had its say, the lines stay above the row's own bottom margin (InnerRow::below) as well as the closing border, and the last paragraph of a nested cell needs its space after. A row left with no line goes on whole; one that keeps a line splits.RowLayout::least, fromlayout_table).That last point also means the numbers above were too kind. They count the rows and lines of the nested table only. Counting every word of #6638's file, 264 of its 899 words were still on another page than in Word after the first commit (

main90e29607The 20 left are two other rules, both on

9d303819together move no word in any of them. That is with the rows that go on whole left out of #6580's count (see Overlaps); without that, one form has a centred label 5.2 pt low beside a nested table that breaks across the page.Not done here:
main. A nested row that goes on whole now starts the next page with its own top border, as in Word (the outer and the nested border at 56.6 and 57.2 at the top of the next page in Word, at 56.7 and 57.2 here). Butmainreopens the outer row with its inside border there (Tables: a row at the top of a page keeps the edge it has inside the table; Word opens the page with the cell's own top border or the table's #6592), where Word has none: together the text is one border lower. Before, the nested row's text started right under that outer border, without its own, and the two errors cancelled. With Layout: a table row at the top of a page opens with the border of a first row (#6592) #6594 the outer row opens as in Word and both are right: that is the state the 91 documents were compared in.main. Word ends it under the lines it keeps, or at its least height for an at-least row (80.5 pt in the file with margins of 10 pt), and closes the nested table there with its border.

The conflict is the struct's literals.9d303819) counts a row of a table that a cell keeps when it lines that cell up in the part. A row that goes on whole here can end above the limit, and must not count there. I have the two merged locally with those rows left out (a filter inalign_in_part) and will add it to whichever is merged second.Summary by CodeRabbit
