Description: at the first time when opening a CALC spreadsheet, the anticipated page borders are shown in dashed lines in the final column or across the last row that would match on the first paper page that had been set in the menu: [Format] > [Page Style]. What I experienced is, that the shown dash lines will be correct only once you initiate a page preview and come back. I cannot guess where the lines after the opening of a file had been set, nor portrait or landscape had been misinterpreted, nor A4, A3, Letter seems to be a hint to this. Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a spreadsheet in CALC that exceeds ONE page of contents (no matter to the right or down to next paper of current setting 2. close the file 3. open the file and remind yourself of the anticipated paper borders indicated with horizontal and vertical dashed lines 4. initiate a page preview and close that again 5. compare the previous paper borders with the new page borders indicated Actual Results: at the beginning when opening a spreadsheet, the paper border (size) does not displays the correct information about the page sizes Expected Results: The paper size and the anticipated page borders of the displayed file are not consistent Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: see attachments

I don't reproduce this. If you still see this with version 25.2, attach an example file.

Hi, having read your comment, for you could not reproduce the behavior, I took time to mess with paper sizes, zoom levels, portrait and landscape sheets, activated the preview and within that print preview I modified zoom levels back and forth. Then this is the moment when the dashed lines get wrong in the normal page and editing view. It may also be relevant, to have more than one page content on the A4 sheet. anyway here are the screenshot and a calc file. Important to mention is that the dashed lines which I suppose were created for the editor to help indicate the end of the pages to the right (across( and to the bottom (below) for the next page.

(In reply to HTK300 from comment #7) > Created attachment 200979 [details] > CALC file What I see is that there are *no* print area dashes visible upon opening. I bibisected the change with linux-64-7.0 to c4281cb41e6b76cabd5fe42fc707877e864dfb82 tdf#130640: Revert "tdf#124983 In calc make printable page... ...borders also initially visible" So it seems to be a deliberate change. I don't reproduce the area dashes being in an incorrect location.
the dashed lines which seem to anticipate the border of the paper sheet appears only on the most left tab. Once a preview has been initiated, the borders appear and are good
