Description: I found an obscure way of editing, when the user can entered tabs at the beginning of the lines, but those are are not displayed. The remain hidden. They can be displayed e.g. by Increasing Indent. Steps to Reproduce: (Screencast video has been recorder, see comments) 1. in new ODT, open the Licensing information and copy a few lines of it 2. Optional: Toggle Formatting Marks, enhances visual effect 3. (Licensing information has been chosen, because that comes within the LO package, but the issue has been observed with author's original documents) 4. Paste the Unformatted variant of the clipboard. 5. Enter few tabs on the beginning of some of the lines. They are displayed OK. The lines are "indented". 6. At the end of the document, paste the RTF variant of the clipboard. 7. The earlier text looses the tabs (the only vanish). 8. Repeat 5, enter few more tabs, they are not displayed. 9. Select the earlier text and Increase indentation. 10. All tabs reappear. Actual Results: Tabs get hidden in some process of editing (here, pasting new formatted text) Expected Results: Tabs never get hidden. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: a201ab6f47c2d5a7ba4c5f998b0aa231cae82010 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ); UI: en-US Calc: CL The issue is not present in 6.4.4.2

Wierd steps of the year. Windows or very fresh (Lin bibisect is 7 days old). Regression.
Thank you for the medal :) I tried, but couldn't reduce the steps. Moreover I had to use some formatted text to trigger the regression.
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/250075/ might or might not be related: > writer: tab stop size global setting resets to install default of 1.27cm > upon paste of RTF clipboard data > ... > Version: 6.4.3.2 (x64) ... I see that the version mismatches, and that behaviour is different. But the symptoms look suspiciously related; so I thought if the observed problem could be related to fix of the bug mentioned at AskLibO?
By the way, I reproduce the problem (disappearing tabs after pasting text as RTF, reappearing after indenting) in Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 058fdc75afa9e5e69c6e11ab7879ddb9d51ae1c5 CPU threads: 12; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18363; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU); UI: en-US Calc: CL
The issue is NOT present in Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 7dc3a20cab712ee987ea25a8f5728529521485b7 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ); UI: en-US Calc: CL The bug seems to be squashed.
As Status link explains, Fixed is wen commit is known/found, this would be WFM. thatho, you may go into bibisect (wiki explains how) to find what exactly caused and fixed a regression.
