Description: Test 1: 1. Launch Writer 2. Menu > View > Hide Whitespace = True 3. The whitespace between pages will be removed. 4. Close Writer. Launch it again. The whitespace between pages will be restored. Hide Whitespace option will be False. Test 2: Very similar to the previous one, but now I'm trying to save the state of this option in the template. 1. Create template.ott at C:\Users\John\Desktop\Test and open it. (You will have template.ott in the title bar.) 2. The same as step 2 in previous test. 3. The same as step 3 in previous test. 4. Save template by pressing Ctrl-S. Close Writer. 5. (5a) Open template again. Or (5b) Create a new document based on it. In both cases the whitespace between pages will be restored and Hide Whitespace option will be False. * * * I remember this bug already ... well, bugged me when I worked with LO 5.4 about a year ago. During this time Windows was reinstalled and my LO is now 6.2.7.1. The bug is still here.

To be certain the reported issue is not related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your Libreoffice profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ) and re-test? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present
Don't see a reason why Hide Whitespace should work differently to let's say Field Shading. And when I open LibreOffice, change Field Shadings, close and reopen the last choice is remembered. That's not true for Hide Whitespace, which is always off.

(In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #4) I already tried to reset the profile. Tested with 6.2.7, 6.3.2, 6.4.0. The "Hide Whitepspace" state doesn't stored neither in the LibreOffice nor in the template/document.

Dear John, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION.
