Issue 94854

Sample document

Here it is a sample document.
I marked some of the problematic pages (there are more) by highlighting part of
the text in red. If you have the Linux Libertine font in your system, the
highlighted text will correspond to the text that makes the cursor jump.
The file does not show the problem when opened with OOo 2.4.1.
The problem is present in both, the rc4 64 bits version and the final 32 bits
version.

Reassigned to SBA.

Tested on OOo310m7 with windows vista .
Was not able to reproduce .

need more information to reproduce 

Just open the attached document on Linux, click on the text marked red and the
cursor will jump to the beginning of the page or even to the footer of previous
page. I can reproduce the behaviour with the attached document on 3.2rc1 64
bits.
The document was originally created on OOo 2.x (I only "masked" the text to make
it public). Recreating (copy/paste unformatted text) the document on 3.x fix the
problem so it is something related with how OOo 3.x manage documents from OOo
2.x. 
Everything about the problem is in the previous messages.

can't reproduce it with 3.2 RC1 32 bit

That means this is a Linux AND 64 bits only problem.

stripped down sample document

confirming (3.2.0, linux 32bit - as the reporter uses 64bit → Platform ALL).

Important aspects:
* only affects mouse-action (keyboard movement/selection not affected)
* the page-breaks
* the comment/note

The problem only occurs when View|Notes is enabled. It does not occur when the 
note is not displayed.

It also does not occur when the note or one of the page-breaks is removed.
(the note does not need to be at the last character/paragraph, other text can 
follow as in the original bugdoc)

To reproduce:
0) open the reduced sample.
2) Go to page 3 (the second page in the document, page number changed to odd 
number, thus OOo adds the (in normal editing view invisible) page 2)
3a) click on the red highlighted text to place the cursor into one of the words.

expected: Cursor within the word, where you clicked.
actual: Cursor is moved to the beginning of page 3

3b) place the cursor after one of the highlighted words and try to select (with 
the mouse) to the left to include the highlighted word.

expected: selection extends as one drags along
actual: selection is extended to the beginning of page 3 as soon as you reach 
the highlighted word.

similarly, when you go to the last page of the document and try to position the 
cursor into the highlighted word there, the cursor jumps into the footer of the 
previous page - selection is not possible in this case.

this I can reproduce, the other stuff I can't.

I have found this problem, too, with one of my own documents. I can reproduce it
in OpenOffice.org 3.2 on Ubuntu Linux 10.04 and in OpenOffice.org 3.2.1 on
Windows XP (both 32-bit). To me, it looks as if the combination of a note and a
page break makes Writer misinterpret mouse coordinates in the left-hand quarter
of the page.

For me, right-clicking is also affected. When I right-click to get the context
menu, the settings in that menu are the ones for header line (which is to be
expected, as the cursor has jumped already). But the position of the context
menu is where I actually clicked. Maybe this gives a further clue.
