Version: 24.8.5.2 (X86_64)
Build ID: 480(Build:2)
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.13; UI render: default; VCL: kf6 (cairo+wayland)
Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

still behaves as described in this bug report.

Let me state once again the problem.

A page style can be configured to provide 3 variants:
- first page
- left page
- right page
This allows for different headers.

"First page" variant will be activated at beginning of a page sequence
controlled by the page style. Transition from one page style to another one is
done with a "special" page break when you explicitly designate the page style
after the break.

When you switch to a different page style, there is no problem. E.g. with page
styles A and A (1, L=left, R=right tag the variants):

A1 AL AR AL AR (special break) B1 BL BR BL (special break) A1 AL …

My expectation is the "special" break causes a reset of the page sequence such
that:

A1 AL AR (special break) A1 AL AR AL (special break) A1 AL …

However, as shown in the 2024 attachment, the sequence is in fact:

A1 AL AR (special break) AR AL AR AL (special break) AR AL …

i.e. the sequence is not interrupted nor restarted.

The question is: in single page style context, which break can restart a
sequence?

My workaround is to drop the 3-variant page style feature and to use 3 separate
page styles. This is not user-friendly because any geometry modification
(margins) requires to adjust three styles instead of a single one.
