Bug ID: 168628
Summary: Selecting objects across multiple visible pages
defines a silly selection with nonsensical behavior
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer

Writer doc for reproducing the bug
Reproduction instructions:
1. Open the attached document. It has a triangle shape on page 1 and a rhombus
shape on page 4.
2. Ensure the Drawing toolbar is visible.
3. Make sure the window size and zoom are such, that you see all four pages, in
a 2 row, 2-per-row placement
4. Press the Select button on the Drawing toolbar
5. Select the two shapes
6. Aligh the horizontal centers of both shapes.
Expected result:
Actually, that's an interesting question. Perhaps a "logical rectangle"
selection rectangle which extends downwards over all of pages 2 and 3, but
narrowly tracks the center of the page.
Then, action (6.) has no effect.
Actual result:
A visual selection rectangle encompasses the shapes on both pages - including
corners of pages 2 and 3 as though they weren't consecutive, but physically
laid out on a work area as two rows of two pages each, with the four corners
touching.
Then, action (6.) brings the shape-4 rhombus, to the left edge of page 4, and
brings the triangle to the right edger of page 1.
Note: There's nothing special about the document, you can easily create it
yourself with a few page breaks and some shape insertions. I had each shape
aligned to the page center.
