Description Gordo 2015-06-26 19:05:30 UTC
If the cursor is at the beginning of the first cell in a table then pressing Alt + Enter will insert a paragraph before the table.  Ctrl + Enter (Insert → Manual break) will insert a page break before the table and the table will be at the beginning of a new page.

If the table is at the beginning of the document or after a manual page break then pressing Enter will insert a paragraph before the table.  That paragraph will adopt the page break and the table will no longer be marked with a page break.

However, if the table is at the beginning of the document and because there is nothing before it,  Ctrl + Enter will mark the table with a page break but no page will be inserted.  Undo will have an item for “Insert page break”.  Pressing Alt +Enter will insert a paragraph and put the table on a new page.

If a table is after a manual page break then pressing Alt + Enter will insert a paragraph before the page break and not between the page break and the table.  Pressing Ctrl + Enter on a table that is after a page break will not insert another page break.

Ctrl + Enter should insert a paragraph before a table that is at the beginning of a document or after a page break.  This behaviour is already established when performing Ctrl + Enter on normal paragraphs—even on ones not directly after a page break.

Alt + Enter should insert a paragraph between a page break and a table.  I checked this behaviour with sections and it also does not insert a paragraph between a page break and a section.

Dear Gordo,

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
