            Bug ID: 89346
           Summary: MAIL MERGE: Document preview does not handle
                    conditional text correctly
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: s...@zenmotion.de

Hi,

I've found a display bug in the document preview of the mail merge assistant.

Steps to reproduce:

1. create a document
2. link a spreadsheet as database
3. insert database fields
4. create a conditional text with following condition
4.1 condition: [title] != ""
4.2 then: " "
4.3 else: ""
5. use mail merge assistant and click through the setting until document
preview
6. scroll through the previewed data (filled fields) if the condition would be
false the empty field is suppressed but the conditional whitespace is still in
preview.

If I print/save the mail merge document, all fields and conditional text are
handled correctly. So I think this is just a bug of the document preview of
mail merge which does not solve the condition properly.

In my case I wanted to display just a whitespace if there is a title (academic
grade) to print for the address field.

regards,
Sven
