Description avoicelikethunder 2020-01-03 22:18:15 UTC
Description:
Chapter headings completely disappear after deleting a page break close to any particular chapter heading.

Steps to Reproduce:
Using the Undo/Redo feature cannot recover this error.

1. Create a manually typed table of contents.
2. Type chapter headings throughout your document and set them to Heading 2 (heading type may be irrelevant in triggering this bug).
3. Position your cursor to the left of each heading and hit CTRL + Enter to create a Page Break.
4. Decide that you don't want a page break at chapter 50 and delete the page break.
5. Realize that the words "Chapter 50" have suddenly disappeared from your document, even though all you did was delete the Page Break above it.
6. Get annoyed that you have to retype "Chapter 50", recreate a bookmark at that location, and re-link "Chapter 50" in your manually created Table of Contents.
7. As you scroll up, realize that all other chapter headings of magically disappeared.
8. Resist the urge to throw your laptop across the room, or to enter a bug report filled with profanity, as you realize that using the Undo/Redo feature does absolutely nothing. You now have to manually retype all chapter headings over again, set them to your desired heading, bookmark them again, and re-link them in your manually created Table of Contents. Welcome to %#$@ing Hell, please enjoy your stay.

Actual Results:
%#$@ it, I'm going to start drinking again.

Expected Results:
I should just end it after this $#!#.


Reproducible: Always
