it seems that LibO doesn't show page 2 of the document, right?

please specify your exact O/S version.

Mikhail, for your next bug please include an exact description of what is being displayed incorrectly so we know what to look out for. Thanks.

Confirmed:4.2.1.1:OSX and latest nightly. Page two of test document is missing. In Word: 3 pages. In LO: 2 pages while page 2 is missing, while the latest nightly already improves page alignment.

Comment 15 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2017-07-18 21:31:18 UTC
So the missing page 2 and incorrect placement of nested table content in the document shown in attachment 115278 [details] now displays correctly in 5.4 and master.

Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: a83888e7759abd5204c76d0c3095a4d49699b834
CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 4.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: group

The only major problem with the arrangement of the nested table content is that the table with the heading 'ИНФОРМАЦИЯ О ПРИОБРЕТАЕМОМ ТС' is floating at top of the document as a frame overlapping the giraffe image, rather than being located in the cell above the cell that has the table with the heading 'АНКЕТА'. This regression happened in 4.0, as it is correctly positioned in 3.6.

xisco, raal, aron: anyone got time to bibisect this?

Terrance, Aron: Not sure how that bibisect can be correct when i stated that the regression happened between 3.6 and 4.0.
Comment 19 Terrence Enger 2017-07-29 17:40:59 UTC
Thank you, Yousuf, for catching that.

I was sure yesterday that I had checked the results from the commits
that I reported as last good and first bad.  Just now I have looked
again at the commit I called "last good", and I do see overlapping
tables.  I notice that as I move the caret or reposition the Writer
window using the sliders, LibreOffice takes a noticeable length of
time to finish repainting the document area; meanwhile, the
overlapping is less conspicuous, and it take a second or so for the
overlapped kangaroo to be rendered.  I should have looked more
carefully at the screen.

I apologize for the noise.  I am setting keywords back like I found
them.
Comment 20 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2017-07-30 12:33:00 UTC
So the underlying issue is that the 'ИНФОРМАЦИЯ О ПРИОБРЕТАЕМОМ ТС' table has a text wrapping of 'around'.

If I save it as DOC with "None" wrapping in Word 2016, then the problem is gone. So I suppose some mistake here.

No, the underlying issue is not that it has that wrapping (that seems accurate), but that this wrapping works improperly. This wrapping mode should not allow that kind of overlapping.
Comment 23 Buovjaga 2018-07-02 16:47:52 UTC
Bibisected the floatyness on Linux with 43all to range https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/log/?qt=range&q=c29af1572ad15ac5199a09e5812fb8354c165329...c3aa1cefdc6521d34a2a32c20bae1593e1edb5ba

I think it might be this one: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=edc4861a68e0269b83b17e0ec57912a1ce4220ad
n#775899 initial docx import of w:vertAnchor inside w:tblpPr

Note that the float position is different in the range vs. current master.

Yes, but not only that. 
'ИНФОРМАЦИЯ О ПРИОБРЕТАЕМОМ ТС' 2nd table has a text wrapping of 'around' and vertical position of 0 relative to 'page'. LO import is wrong.
'ИНФОРМАЦИЯ О ЗАПРАШИВАЕМОМ КРЕДИТЕ' 1st table has also text wrapping of 'around' but vertical position of relative to 'paragraph'. LO import is correct.
Comment 25 Miklos Vajna 2019-02-12 16:42:50 UTC
So once there is a multi-page floating table in a docx file, whatever we do, we may loose. If the table positioning properties are ignored, somebody complains (the ones who have a non-multi-page table). If the properties are not ignored, somebody also complains (the ones with multi-page tables).

The only proper fix for this would be to handle this in the Writer layout, but that would be a big new feature; so it's hard to call this a regression. Adjusting keywords accordingly.

(And sure I understand that from some user's point of view this is a bug, and I agree it makes sense to fix this at some stage.)

Comment 28 Ari Latvala 2023-02-03 19:25:10 UTC
Layout of the example document still very different on LO 7.5 when compared outlook on Word. Screenshot added to the case showing both side by side.

The document in Word 2016 and Writer master

Still quite bad (similar to the last screenshot) in master:

Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 9a555d79b3b00793edf1d51a8a7c76b723cc436d
CPU threads: 14; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: default; VCL: win
Locale: en-US (hu_HU); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

There are several floating tables in the example file, but only the second is floating in Writer.
