Test case file

1. Open test.odt.
2. See vertical align of "D" cell: it's middle.
3. Set the cursor just after "HERE" word. Press <Enter>.
4. See vertical align of "D" cell: it's middle (on the panel) but visually it's *top*!.

LibreOffice 7.4.4.2,
Calculate Linux 23 (Gentoo based).
Comment 1 Robert Großkopf 2023-04-17 07:42:03 UTC
Could confirm the buggy behavior with LO 7.5.2.2 on OpenSUSE 15.4 64bit rpm Linux. Bug will also appear with LO 5.1.5.2 (oldest version I have installed here). So might be it is inherited from OOo. Have set the Version to LO 5.1.5.2.

Note: It will only happen when a cell in the row has been splitted horizontally and there is a page break inside the row.

Robert, thanks!

Caught even more interesting effects on merging cells.
But can't reproduce on a clean file. Saved the test case.

Note: all these effects still appear after saving and re-opening the document.

And yes, these effects appear despite the values in UI.

Dear Alexander Kurakin,

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

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
