Bug ID: 98958
Summary: "Hide Whitespace" changes pagination by adding the top
and bottom margins to the editing area
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.1.1.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
"Hide Whitespace" alters the position of automatic page breaks in the text
flow, affecting the pagination. Apparently, hiding the whitespace in
normal-view mode makes Writer count the entire paper height as printable area.
In effect, the top and bottom margins are added to the main editing area,
rather than just hidden. This seemingly creates extra space on a page, which is
then filled by the first few lines from the following page, and the effect
accumulates on each subsequent page.
This issue looks similar to bug 94164 and bug 94165 but specifically concerns
automatic page breaks and the top and bottom margins.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Disable "View → Hide Whitespace".
2. Add dummy text so that it exceeds one page. Take note of the text right
before and after the automatic page break.
3. Enable "View → Hide Whitespace". The page break, as indicated by a thin
horizontal line, is now positioned a little further down as compared to the
text flow.
Automatic page breaks should stay constant in relation to the text, regardless
of whether the whitespace between pages is hidden or not.
