test case .docx

I pulled this test case from a docx file created with word 2007. When i open the attached file in LibO, the footnotes have line/paragraph spacing not see when viewing it in word 2007. Tested on Linux Mint with the latest releases of LibO 3.6 - 4.2 and 4.3 alpha. LibO 3.6 - 4.1 has the size of a single empty space between footnotes, 4.2 has the size of two empty spaces between, 4.2.5 and 4.3 alpha have footnote numbers on one line and the footnote text on another line and an actual 3rd line styled as 'footnote'.

Not sure whether to put this as regression as no version has correct, but it seem as LibO version increase, it gets worse.

Ubuntu 14.04 x64
LibreOffice 4.3 beta1

Confirmed

New
Normal - can prevent high quality/professional work
High - regression

I think that despite the fact that it never imported correctly, getting worse is still a regression ;) Ideally we'd hope that a developer would fully fix it when fixing the regression but at least get it back to before where it was presentable



Also changing version - let's mark it as 4.3 beta1 since it got substantially worse at that point and that's where the "regression" is - if the solution does not fully resolve the problem we can make a new bug that reflects the "pre-regression" status

it looks like this issue was introduced by abe1e852a232e3bdab7b9177d099fe3929f5a4aa. I couldn't reproduce it when I reverted the commit. It doesn't mean I want it to be reverted ;-)
Comment 6 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2014-06-05 16:45:30 UTC
Now that i have 3.3 installed, i can confirm that it was inherited from OOo.

how the endnotes line spacing looks in 4.2.4, 4.2.6 and 4.3 beta 2

It seems it also affects endnotes as well, as can be seen in attachment 101279 [details] of bug 80175.

Comment 9 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2014-07-09 04:32:17 UTC
I can confirm that 4.2.6 and 4.3.1 has it similar to 4.2.4, but shouldnt we be also be looking to get it back to the better 4.1 level.
