Public bug reported: I am trying to remember how this problem arose. It was as I was pasting a very wide table into a A4 sheet and I cannit for the life of me remember where I got the wide table from.
When I do it the table patses cleanly to the page margin and the rest of it appears in light and darker browns. The cut off may be in the middle of a column. Once the table is corrupted like this is is essentailly unrecoverable and attampts to split it into parts and work on each part separetely doesn't work. I am sorry I must have reported this a little peeved, and I don't mean to sound so. My versions is Version 3.6.0.2 (Build ID: 360m1(Build:102)) from a free Ubuntu install on 20 August 2012. There are no extensions. It is a big table and U hoped that even if it were too big for the page size, I'd be able to manipluate it manually and get it into a usable form. (i.e. a manual split). As it is I'm having to reconstruct the table from notes. The Ubuntu is the latest download of 12.10 and was fresh installed 30 August 2012. I think it would be the same problem in 12.04, as it is a libtreoffice table thingy. I appreciate the work you all do for Ubuntu and Libreoffice, and it's nice to have a system that is so well thought out that you are talking to the people who turn the code, and it actually makes I thing for a better system. I tend to write longwindedly, sorry, and it's much nicer than the sooulless packages where you file a bug report and essentially nothing ever happens. by the way I do a sudo apt-get update and a sudo apt-get upgrade -f at least once a day, so my code is always up to date. If I can be of any further assisstance please contact me, and again apologies for cobbiness. It's just unlike old MS Word, you never expect Libreoffice to break. ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1044189 Title: Problem with wide tables in Libreoffice writer files Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am trying to remember how this problem arose.
