Created attachment 197291 [details] Example file from Word 2016 with table in footer Attached RTF document contains different footers in different sections, the first page containing a table. When opened in Writer, the layout looks good, but hiding / showing the Formatting marks makes the footer disappear. 1. Open attached document 2. Change the visibility of the formatting marks, OR go to Print Preview and back to normal view OR open the Print dialog and close it -> Table is missing from the firs page footer Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: dd41459378bca78a18f32e61bfac77aa48fabb8d CPU threads: 14; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (10.0 build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: hu-HU (hu_HU); UI: en-US Calc: default Seems to have started with: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/4b0fa253a4540f5461397815d290586f9ddabe61 commit 4b0fa253a4540f5461397815d290586f9ddabe61 [log] author Tomaž Vajngerl <tomaz.vajngerl@collabora.co.uk> Tue Nov 28 13:46:21 2023 +0900 committer Tomaž Vajngerl <quikee@gmail.com> Fri Dec 01 08:26:38 2023 +0100 tdf#136472 adjust ooxml import to handle first header/footer
Created attachment 197292 [details] The document in Word 2016 and Writer after opening - good
Created attachment 197293 [details] The document after showing/hiding the formatting marks - table is gone + top header is also changed
Created attachment 197294 [details] The same file in docx format, also shows the same symptom
It happens also with 'Whitespace' option. Or editing the Footer with 'Use Dynamic spacing' Version: 25.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 54a836fa5af3428d893cffe5d7a0963b092e9f70 CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 11 X86_64 (10.0 build 26100); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: es-ES (es_ES); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded
also happens when changing page size or orientation. I can get the table to re-appear by changing the page style away from Converted1, and then back again. This has just exposed some existing problem - not really a regression. When I save that file as an ODT, I can see the same thing happening, starting in LO 7.5.4 with mikek's https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/151645 commit c2cfeed369a2b0f6d91d1093d3876357277411c9 Author: Mike Kaganski on Wed May 10 20:39:12 2023 +0300 tdf#155238: Reimplement how ListAutoFormat is stored to ODF This commit also sounds rather unconnected... The table in the footer first appeared in 7.1 with commit 15d3a3864879ff405c3f50003571989088be54c3 Author: Justin Luth on Fri Jul 31 13:42:20 2020 +0300 tdf#135338 sw layout: show FirstLeft on very first left page style.
