We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

As Cor mentioned in comment 6, Calc provides means to repeat row(s) and
column(s) for a print range. Tables with overflowing columns is unusual in
Writer (could be done for the pivoted table with rotated text). Resolving the
ticket as WF, feel free to reopen with arguments why Writer needs this feature.

Hi Santos,
What about using Calc?
Define a print range, and there you define rows to be repeated..
And use page styles for more beauty.
greetings,
Cor

Hi Santos,

(In reply to ssan...@web.de from comment #0)

> In my case, start and end times are in the first column, but the table is
> too 'wide' for one page
I think the problem already starts with the fact that tables that are too wide,
do not wrap ...
You have to split it yourself??

Well, not necessarily. One could image a user doing the column-splitting
themselves, apriori, but wanting the first column repeated.

Example: A daily itinerary table, with different days on different pages. First
column(s) should an hour range.


Also, if this is implemented, remember the directions:

* Of the table
* Of the page
* Of the paragraph

and decide which of these should affect which column gets repeated. Probably
the table direction.

Also remember that, currently, the direction property of the table is labeled
"Text direction" - even though it's not just the text direction (bug 157819).

>From the ODF spec

8.2.2 Header Columns
If a table does not fit on a single page, a set of adjacent table columns can
be automatically repeated on every page...

So it should be possible. Right, Regina?

Thanks for the suggestion ssantos.
It has been asked about on English-language Ask.LO as well:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/how-to-repeat-the-contents-of-a-column-across-pages/8136

I understand such a feature would depend on the ability of a table splitting
columns across pages as opposed to splitting rows, and I can hardly imagine
this happening as content flows top-to-bottom into the next page, and table
widths are limited to between the side margins of a page... So "won't fix"? Or
maybe I'm missing something relating to orientation and Complex Text Layout?

-> needsUXEval and needsDevAdvice.
