This document shows web view splitting into two pages. (swx or odt format doesn't matter) none

Description loevborg 2006-03-11 12:36:16 UTC
When editing a long document (>50 p.) in Writer with many footnotes, (>80) web view breaks into 
two or more pages. FWIW, Web view should always be one long page only. With the attached 
document, this is reproducible on OOo 2.0.1 on Windows and Linux, and Neooffice1.2 on OSX.

This is somewhat cosmetic, as it doesn't affect functionality or print-outs. It makes editing the 
document tedious though.

Also note that this document was created and edited with version from 1.1.x thorugh 1.9.x to the 
current version. This might be related to some arbitrary limit in page size.

Reassigned to ES.

Due to issue 38289 (PDF export needs smaller pages) we cannot have an endless
page size.

One comment in issue 38289 says, "issue fixed, pdf-export switches now from web 
layout to normal layout. this is done in sw/ui/uno/unotxdoc.cxx." Seems to me to 
be the proper solution. So this reason doesn't seem to hold true any more.

So why WONTFIX? Web layout should have an unlimited page length. Anything else 
is very irritating (I for one started looking for hard page breaks or something
). Note that just about any lengthy document exhibits this weirdness.

The request for a editing view without pagebreaks or page-margins is duplicate
to the request for a "normal" view, as known from Word.
