Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 20162
shifting text in columns when using pgup/pgdown
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
if a document is divided in columns in some cases text is shifted leaving blank space - sometimes small sections but mostly these blank spaces span several pages. some of these get filled by the text if the document is left open and focused on them (probably repagination etc), but most just stay like that - and they also get printed like that. screen repainting doesn't help. it seems that this problem usually happens when pgup/down is used to scroll columned doc. using cursor keys renders document ok. (yes, i did hold down in attached document till botoom :) ). how to reproduce : open attached sxw, press ctrl+end and then scroll up with pgup. (there are blank sections also when using pgdown from the start, so this is not a problem with going to bottom first etc).
Created attachment 9686 [details] just a columned document
confirmed this with OOo1.1RC5 reassigned to jw set status to new set target to OOo2.0
workaround after the document has been loaded just open the following menuitem tools -> update -> page formatting reassigned to fme plaes take a look on this issue set target to OOo later
