Description Asaln 2019-11-28 23:49:57 UTC 
Insert -> text from file does not work : blank page.
Comment 1 Dieter 2019-11-29 10:17:18 UTC 
I confirm it with

Version: 6.4.0.0.beta1 (x64)
Build ID: 4d7e5b0c40ed843384704eca3ce21981d4e98920
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: GL; VCL: win; 
Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB
Calc: threaded

I treid with different files.

There is also no information about it in LO Help:
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-GB/text/swriter/main0104.html?&DbPAR=WRITER&System=WIN
Comment 2 Ming Hua 2019-11-29 18:03:25 UTC 
I can reproduce on 6.3.3 RC1

版本: 6.3.3.1 (x64)
Build ID: f41f4c7f9507aeca13cb9df51f34d80e8ba30a99
CPU 线程: 2; 操作系统: Windows 10.0; UI 渲染: 默认; VCL: win; 
区域语言: zh-CN (zh_CN); UI 语言: zh-CN
Calc: threaded

... but not on 6.3.1

Version: 6.3.1.2 (x64)
Build ID: b79626edf0065ac373bd1df5c28bd630b4424273
CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: zh-CN (zh_CN); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

That is the smallest bracket I have installed.  6.2.8 works fine (i.e. not reproducible), too.

Bisect request?

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I don't reproduce this.

Reverting fix from tdf#129082, I got an error once I click "Open" button after having selected file.

I know the other one is about Calc but the code part fixed is more generic and may concern other LO modules than Calc.

Anyway, don't hesitate to reopen this tracker if you still reproduce this with a build containing:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=0c4736a3e6b6e641579f517cf134ce2fd89fe132
Resolves: tdf#129082 insert sheet from file fails

Well, the help page for this feature is supposed to be
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-US/text/swriter/guide/textdoc_inframe.html
but the menu entry has since been renamed.

As for fixing the help page to match the UI, there is already bug 98230.
Comment 5 Ming Hua 2019-12-17 08:56:33 UTC 
I can confirm this issue is fixed in 6.3.4:

版本: 6.3.4.2 (x64)
Build ID: 60da17e045e08f1793c57c00ba83cdfce946d0aa
CPU 线程: 2; 操作系统: Windows 10.0; UI 渲染: GL; VCL: win; 
区域语言: zh-CN (zh_CN); UI 语言: zh-CN
Calc: threaded

Although looking at the changelog, this is more like a duplicate of bug 128898 rather than duplicate of bug 129082 :-)
