Description brakky 2006-05-24 20:03:14 UTC 
I have a doc in which the whole page is taken up by a table which is one column
wide and two rows high. The two rows are fixed heights
I have in the table properties the "Allow Row to Break across.." enabled.
when I get to the bottom of the row instead of the page breaking and the text
continuing in a table on the next page the text goes into "invisible land"

I have tried 2.0, 2.0.2, and even the current build 2.0.3 and it all has this
problem. While messing around I noticed that if I change the row to be "fit to
size" then it does work. But if I have the height fix (which it needs to be in
my case) then it doesn't work.
Comment 1 brakky 2006-05-24 20:27:33 UTC 
I did some more messing around to see other instances.

It seems that by having fixed heights that text which doesn't fit the space
alloted goes into "invisible land".
Comment 2 michael.ruess 2006-05-26 08:08:58 UTC 
Yes, that is the intention of a fixed height... the table won't grow if it
filled with text. If you want to have the table breaking then, you should give
it a minimum height adapted to the page size with dynamical size.

Closed, it works as intended here.
