I confirm the described behaviour with

Additinal information
Option "Uniformous distribution of content between columns" is checked

But I'm not sure, if it is a bug or expected behaviour, because we work with columns of a section and not with columns of a table.

So I add design-team for a double check
Comment 2 Heiko Tietze 2023-01-12 08:09:49 UTC
The uniform distribution is available only for section but columns can be defined on the page itself. If I add text like lorem, ipsum, <lorem ipsum> it breaks at the next page and according the paragraph text flow. I don't see text being "transferred from the third to the second column". => NEEDINFO (ideally with an example)

No response, resolving ID.
