            Bug ID: 164055
           Summary: Very long footnotes inside sections, that don't fit a
                    page, get cut
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer

A text in a section, with a huge footnote

In the document, there is a section with "collect at end of text" setting, that
has several paragraphs of text, and a footnote with text that needs several
pages to fit.

When creating such a document, everything seemed normal. The first page shows
all of the paragraph 1, and the start of footnote. The second and following
pages contain only the footnote, until its remaining text is less than a page
(which happens on page 6), where paragraphs to 9 are shown above the remainder
of the footnote; and page 7 contains paragraph 10. However, after
save-and-reload, the footnote got cut at the bottom of page 1 (with a red arrow
showing not fitting content), and didn't continue at all. Showing page preview
partially restored it, but not on page 6.

On the closer inspection, it is also obvious that the main text's paragraph 2
is shown partially on pages 3 and 4, in the half-line space above the footnote
separator. On page 3, there are actually several lines of it, hidden by the
footnote (putting a cursor, and using arrows to navigate the text, shows where
it's positioned).

The problem with the incorrect flow (and having paragraph 2 partially visible
on pages 3-4) was already in OOo 2.2.
