Description Renaud 2020-11-29 14:12:28 UTC
Description:
Pseudo randomly, my text column formating changes since I do not change anything in column formating...

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the given document
2. Go to page 15
3. Watch the spacing between the columns of text (1 cm)
4. Go to page 16
5. Edit the page style (Custom Style 5).
6. Go to the "column" tab.
7. Set column settings as follows : 1st column = 9,15cm, spacing = 1cm, 2nd column = 9,15. Click "Apply", then "OK".
8. Edit again the same page style.
9. Set column settings as follows : 1st column = 7,5cm, spacing = 0cm, 2nd column = 11,49. Click "Apply", then "OK".
10. Go back to page 15.




Actual Results:
The spacing between columns of text changed, since the style of this page has nothing to do with the style we modified.

Expected Results:
No change in the column setting for other styles than the one we changed.


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: Yes

I can't confirm it with

Version: 7.1.0.0.beta1 (x64)
Build ID: 828a45a14a0b954e0e539f5a9a10ca31c81d8f53

Just for clarification: Problem is, that page style "Custom Style 3" (page 15) also changes, if you change "Custom Style 5" (page 16), correct?

Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ or with a master build from http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html? You can install master alongside the standard version. 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.

=> NEEDINFO

Correct.

I tried with the following version. Problem is still present (as for bug #138546 I submited for a different but related bug: issue with columns).
  Version: 7.0.4.2 (x64)

I tried with the following version, but libreoffice crashes before I can finish the test. It crashes when I nagivate in the right column (style edition).

Just tried with the following version and the problem seems to be fixed.
However, the other column issue for which I submitted the bug #138546 is still present.
