I can't reproduce this bug. OOo 2.0 beta works well for me. That is, paragraphs /do/ split between pages, as they should.

Could you tell me how you make a paragraph /not/ split?

FYI: I'm not a developer, just a concerned citizen :-)

Cheers,
Daniel.

I have noticed one change in the latest build of 2.0 beta that i really don't like! It is set up by default not to split paragraphs between pages, and if I uncheck the do not split paragraphs control, it will not stay unchecked, but resets with every new paragraph. this causes major problems with formatting especially with embedded graphics when editing large documents written with 1.x Writer. I hope that this is just a bug that will be corrected, and not what the developers intended for the program. As it is, it will not split paragraphs by default, no matter how long they are. I can't imagine that most writers would choose to have a word processor set up this way by default. If nothing else, I would like to know how to get this control to remain permanently unchecked!

Robert Derman replies: This is OOo 1.9.87 for Windows downloaded from Canada Cygnal mirror. When I open a document created with Writer 1.x many paragraphs are shifted to the next page. If this is a long document, many extra pages may be added. Under Format, Paragraph, Text Flow tab, options, the Do not split paragraph is ALWAYS checked. If I uncheck it, when the cursor lands in the next paragraph it is checked again! When I edited an 80 page document I ended up unchecking this thing about 50 times. As I said, I suspect that this is a BUG not an intended feature.
