Description bhb127 2020-01-09 14:52:27 UTC
Description:
The "Print automatically inserted blank pages" setting is set enabled.
If PDF Export is used, the "Print automatically inserted blank pages" setting is automatically disabled. (which is a nice feature)
After PDF Export is complete the setting stays disabled -> side effect
Should be set back to the initial setting before export.

Steps to Reproduce:
Precondition: 
1) "Print automatically inserted blank pages" setting set enabled.
(extras -> options -> Libre Office Write -> Print)
2) Document should have left and right sides, so bug can manifest its self.
3) there should be two right sides after each other, so a blank page is automatically inserted.

Check: use "print preview" blank pages should be viewed.
Clean up: close preview.

Bug (Action with side effect): export document with PDF export. Wait till export is finish.
Check:
1) open "print preview" blank pages are not viewed
2) go to "Print automatically inserted blank pages" setting, it is now disabled

Actual Results:
"Print automatically inserted blank pages" setting stays disabled

Expected Results:
"Print automatically inserted blank pages" setting should get its status before export.
if disabled before export -> again disabled
if enabled before export -> stay enabled


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

You can't confirm your own bugs. Moving it back to UNCONFIRMED until someone
else confirms it.

It seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.
