This issue is split from Issue 70268. Assigned to OD as pre-arranged! raindrops, any chance we can see document, that exhibits this behavior? @kpalagin: Certainly! OD has the latest version (he also has an earlier version). The major difference between these versions is that in the latest version, I have reset the "Keep with the next paragraph" property for ALL the paragraphs. Please take what you want. (Actually I did NOT intend to have that "Keep with the next paragraph" property in the earlier version; but somehow it crept in. Probably during conversion from the original doc file.) Private document: Please do not post it publicly! Investigation by raindrops and OD reveals that the layout algorithm doesn't work stable with the provided document: - loading without any further action will cause a layout loop. - navigating through the loaded document using the navigator and choosing the heading may avoid the layout loop - loading and perform complete page formatting (menu Tools - Update - Page Formatting) also cause a layout loop. Thus, first of all the layout loop has to be fixed. according to release status meeting -> 3.x I just wanted to say that this bug should be increased in priority. If a word processor doesn't have the same layout from one second to the next, it is pretty broken! Sometimes it makes my book 302 pages, sometimes 320 pages. It inserts empty pages, etc., etc. If someone needs more information, I'm happy to provide it. OD->keithcu: It would be good, if You submit a new issue for Your problem and attach the document. I am asking for this, because Your problem could be caused by another defect in the layout algorithm. If it reveals that it is the same, then Your issue can be closed as a duplicate. I can also have a look at Your document. Probably, a small change to the layout properties in Your document will avoid Your problem. Then, You would have a workaround until Your problem is fixed. Thx in advance for Your help. Hi od; Thanks for your help and your advice. I created a new bug: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=105447 Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". |
