Description Tiiti Kellomaki 2013-08-20 09:46:55 UTC
I have an Impress presentation with 10 slides. Handout master contains "<number>/<count>" (Page number / Page count) which is supposed to give page numbering on the handouts: 1/2, 2/2. Works fine so far. I'm using 6 slides per page on the handout.

When I hide slides 1-5 and print a handout (or select "Range and copies" -> "Slides 6-10" in the Print dialog), I expect to have one page of handout, thus numbered 1/1. Instead, I'm getting one page numbered 1/2. So the <count> is calculating the hidden (or not selected) slides though they will not be printed. Seems to work equally with 1 or 4 slides per handout.

Please either change the <count> to include only the slides to be printed, or change its name to "Total page count" instead of "Page count". At least to me, "Page count" means "the number of paper sheets that will come out from the printer."

Hi

I reproduce on windows 7/64 & 4.3.0.0.beta1

Also reproduced with Version: 4.3.0.0.beta2
Build ID: a06aa316117a6ff0f05c697c82831c227812d810

I set status to New.

The fix for bug 74383 solved the problem of "page count" when hidden slides but as stated in the Bug 74383, comment 8 inconsistent with the page number persists

See the nbpage.odp attached

Regards
Pierre-Yves

Dear Tiiti Kellomaki,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
