Description pieter kristensen 2024-08-28 15:41:22 UTC 
- Open empty writer document
- Create 7x7 table
- Merge cells op upper row to one.

- Hit Ctrl-a and select whole table
- Hit Ctrl-Enter and create a new page
- Put cursor on top of the new page
- Paste table

result: four rows are pasted and not seven.

found workaround: first insert one empty line on new empty page and paste under that line. Then it works as expected. Very effective not elegant/intuitive.

Libreoffice Linux:
Version: 24.2.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 420(Build:2)
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL.UTF-8); UI: nl-NL
Ubuntu package version: 4:24.2.5~rc2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~lo1

same effect on Windows 11 with same LO version
Comment 1 pieter kristensen 2024-08-28 16:16:31 UTC 
Excusez moi! 

On the Windows (11) I tested it the LO version is 24.08.03 and not the same as on the linux machine.
But the behavior is exactly the same..

I confirm it with

Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 6c640ee2662318f32a22d8293ad7498109681933
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (10.0 build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB
Calc: CL threaded

Additional information on actual result:
Table is pasted on a second page, created before page break.


That is the more general problem: If you copy a table and paste it on a new page after page break, it is pastd before page break
