Description TorrAB 2021-01-15 23:29:49 UTC
Description:
In formUpda.odt, the 1st page has a large space: try to fill it with text from the 2nd page, where paragraph ‘AMPLITUDE’ has (Format>para) option KeepWithNext On. Set it Off; Writer does not budge —why?.
	Do some edit, such as adding a line after BBBBB (A ‘small’ edit, like inserting a character, won't do.): the bloc of text moves to the previous page —finally. It should have done that before, as soon as KeepWithNext was set Off.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.see above
2.
3.

Actual Results:
no reformat until line added

Expected Results:
The change of an option like KeepWithNext should take effect immediately


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

To fix the INSUFFICIENTDATA problem, here is a precise procedure:
● Open formUpda.odt;
● in 2nd page, Format>para ‘AMPLITUDE’, uncheck option KeepWithNext;
● click OK or hit Enter; Text is not changed.
● Click after BBBBB, hit Enter: the bloc of text (5 paragraphs, including the new empty one and ‘AMPLITUDE’) moves to the previous page —finally.

This never worked as expected. Previously with OO not even with BBBB.

Dear TorrAB,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Warm Regards,
QA Team
