Bug #: 46073
Summary: Page Layout Guides (margins, headers, footers) No
Longer Visible (regression bug)
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: LibO 3.5.0 Release
Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: Mac OS X (All)
Status: NEW
Keywords: regression
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
I realize that removing the page layout guides in Writer is a new "feature" of
LO 3.5; however, most of those posting to my thread today in the LO "Users"
forum consider this to be a regression bug. That is how I'm submitting it.
Removing a significant feature, rather than making it an option, seems to be a
regression bug.
When doing basic page layout (multiple columns & moving graphics objects
around) having the margin guides is very useful. Clearly, not having them is
not a
deal killer, but the question is why? If having page layout guides was
available under the "View" menu, wouldn't LO be a stronger product that it is
now
without having that option at all?
In Apple's Pages word processing, under the "View" menu is a the command "View
Page Layout." The same should be added to later versions of LO.
Please feel free to reclassify this as a feature request; however, that's not
how I view it.
