I tested it with the latest available version on NixOS 22.11.1137.dac57a4eccf.

The issue is also reproducible with the latest version available as Flatpak:

Version: 7.4.3.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 1048a8393ae2eeec98dff31b5c133c5f1d08b890
CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 6.1; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Flatpak
Calc: threaded


This issue is currently blocking my work, because i can't print my form, so it can get filled out on paper.

Hi David

This is not a bug, the frozen rows / columns are only about what is always visible when editing the sheet.

For printing something on every page, please see Format > Print ranges > Edit.
