Bug ID: 172467
Summary: HTML view when copying to clipboard shouldn't contain
tabs
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]

Example that triggers the bug
When I copy the contents of the attached file and paste into Firefox, tab
characters appear where the original only had spaces. Pasting the HTML view
into PowerShell reveals that the tab characters come from the whitespace that
Writer adds when formatting the HTML. To fix this, Writer should keep
whitespace unaltered inside the text content of HTML tags.
