Description contestcen 2020-02-18 23:12:31 UTC
Description:
When I start a new section near the bottom of a page, the section header often is placed at the bottom of the page, while the section text starts on the next page.  I want the header and text together.  I have tried several remedies, such as Format-> Paragraph-> Text Flow-> Keep together with next paragraph.  This does not work.  I have tried inserting an invisible paragraph (non-breaking spaces) between the header and text, but that does not fix it.  I also tried fiddling with the orphan and widow controls.  I finally resorted to adding extra blank lines before the header, but then I get unwanted gaps when I make changes elsewhere.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a page of text.
2. Near the bottom, place a Level 2 header  (One blank line before and after)
3. Add another paragraph.

Actual Results:
The header goes at the bottom of the page with 2 or 3 blank lines below.

Expected Results:
When I specify "Keep together with next paragraph" the header should move to the top of the next page.


Reproducible: Always

Thank you for reporting the bug. Unfortunately the steps to reproduce are not clear to me. Within the description you mention "section", but there is no step with a section (Insert => Section). Please explain. Perhaps it might be helpful to add a sample document.
