WW8: table won't break due to obsolete protected section
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:07 UTC
If you import a MS WORD-created document containing text in a table (2 columns, 1 row) and the text exceed 1 page, swriter does not import it correctly and you can see only the first page. The function "allow table split across pages" does not function neither. In summary you can not read the document unless you do not transfer the table into text (but by this way you lose the columns which is a problem e. g. if the table contains 2 language version of the same text and you need to compare them). This is a big problem because you can not edit such a kind of a document! This problem occur also in OOO DEV300m86. See attached file (open it in MS WORD and in OOo)
Created attachment 71048 [details] test file
I cannot see the problem in OOo 3.2.1, but in OOo 3.3 beta and 300m86. So it is regression in 3.3/3.4 dev branch. MRU->HBRINKM: problem is that the whole content is imported inside a protected section. Removing the section everything will look fine.

Works for me in OOO330m4.
Yes, works fine in OOO330m5.
Cause I wrote this issue I installed OOO330m5 (build: 9521) and have just tried. It works not on this platform. See attached file - can you see the text "END OF TEXT" on page 2? I can not (only in MS WORD)..
SBA: Seen OK (I can see the text "this text you can not see..." on page 2) in OOO330_m6 (Build 9518) => OK for OOo 3.3 => removing link to OOo 3.3. stopper issue However, this defect (2nd page is blank) occurs in DEV300_m86 (Build 9524).
Seen OK in OOO330_m8, too (Windows XP and Linux, build 9527).
Yes, is fixed for OOo 3.3 - looks, that this is a positive side-effect of fix for issue 112303.
Fixed in 3.3.
Closed.
