Bug ID: 166978
Summary: Upon opening an odt, there are large blank spaces that
are forcing content to go onto a new page. We have
noticed that Headers/Footers being Autofit have been a
large proponent of this, but not the full cause.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.0.0 alpha0+
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The bug that I describe in summary, appears in several LibreOffice
versions/commits.
This bug shows up in my build locally, running the following commit on master
branch (which fixed page flickering issue):
"ca3e88728f29422ad9e4bd7f9bec08b59cdf4192", shown here on this diff:
https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/65684ffbe89638407cc855e38838c5ae20cc38ee%5E%21,
also, I have the issue with the latest "daily build" several days in a row
including today, and this bug still appears in each one of those builds.
It also appears to be breaking in different locations of the file, depending on
operating system that the odt is opened on. Windows has less issues and less
extra blank space than when opening the odt's on a Mac, but issue is still very
prevalent on Windows. Also, we have observed that these forms open perfectly
fine with LibreOffice version 7-2.
A couple ways we have found that fix the form are, removing Autofit property
from Headers/Footers, as well as click on different locations within the
headers/footers or body of the odt.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open odt (the only step required to see this issue)
Actual Results:
Upon opening an odt, there are large blank spaces that are forcing content to
go onto a new page, and this occurs on one or multiple pages depending on
form's length.
Expected Results:
When opening an odt, we should not have new pages and blank spaces in
unexpected locations.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
I have 2 examples attached here, where if you open the odt in the versions
described, it breaks.
