Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10900
Paragraph style keep with previous option
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:13:12 UTC
OpenOffice Writer 1.0.1 has a paragraph style option called keep-with-next, but we also need keep-with-prevoius. This need is acute for the caption style. I just had a caption fall, by chance, onto a succeeding page. It was orphaned from its callout. So I fiddled with style settings for the caption style, and learned that no combination of text flow parameters covers this situation. The problem can be solved by changing EVERY style that could conceivably be followed by a caption to "keep with next." This solution is a hack, because it violates separation of concerns. Sometimes you may not want such a paragraph to keep with next, but you ALWAYS want a caption to keep with previous. Writer is already quite excellent in most of these respects and keep-with-previous would close an important hole in the design.
SBA: Reassigned to Bettina from the User Experience team for consideration.
