Description: Writer crashes when Print Preview is opened, closed, and then opened again in a document where the first paragraph participates in the outline structure. The crash also occurs in Safe Mode. The crash occurs when all of the following conditions are met: - Formatting marks are shown. - Hidden characters are displayed. - Outline folding is enabled. - The affected content is placed in the first paragraph. The affected content includes: - Heading 1–10 paragraph styles - Bulleted or numbered lists - Hidden Text or Hidden Paragraph fields If any one of these conditions is not met, the crash does not occur. This issue is particularly relevant to editing Markdown documents. In Markdown files, the first line is very commonly a level-1 heading (for example, "# Heading"). When such files are imported into Writer, this line is converted into a heading paragraph (Heading 1–6). Since LibreOffice 26.2 allows Markdown documents to be edited like regular Writer documents, this crash can affect a common and expected workflow. This issue appears to be a regression introduced in the 25.2 series and is reproducible in later versions, including the 26.2 series and current master builds. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open LibreOffice Writer. 2. Enable Menu > View > Formatting Marks. 3. Open Menu > Options > LibreOffice Writer. 4. Enable View > Outline Folding > Show outline-folding buttons. 5. Enable Formatting Aids > Display Formatting > Hidden characters. 6. In the first paragraph, insert affected content (e.g. apply Heading 1). 7. Open Print Preview. 8. Close Print Preview. 9. Open Print Preview again. Actual Results: LibreOffice crashes. Expected Results: LibreOffice does not crash.
