Description: I needed to create a text file with two parallel columns of text (bilingual document). To achieve so, I created a table with 2 cells (2x1) an pasted my texts in each of the cells. The outcome was either loss of parts of the text or random division of the cells after certain (seemingly random) length of text within the cell. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create a table in an ODT file, in this case 2 columns by 1 row. 2.Insert a long, plain text into each cell. 3.Save, close and re-open (sometimes it is not even necessary). The text will be messed up. Actual Results: Text fractioned among more thank original number of cells or loss of parts of text. Only happens in ODT format, RTF and DOCX work fine as expected. Expected Results: Two cells containing text. Bug only happens in ODT format, RTF and DOCX work fine as expected.

Please attach a sample file, reduce the size as much as possible without private information.

There are not lost text. Pages are not updated properly. Select the cell and click in it, all text is shown. Or Menu>Tool>Update - All Saving the DOCX as ODT works fine, so perhaps there is an issue with the ODT file or some parameter is causing the problem.

BTW, changing any parameter in Menu>Tools>Options>LibreOffice Writer>Compatibility, e.g the first one 'Add spacing between ...", immediately shows the whole text.
@ Comment 6: Yes, it does. But when you open the file again, it is again hidden.
