Description schaber 2007-12-14 09:21:02 UTC 
I searched for this one in the bug database, but could not find any related bug.

I have a table with large (multi-line) rows in a Writer file. The vertical
alignment in a cell at page breaks changes after reopening the file. In the
given example, the second column has only one line, the third has multiple
lines. If I allow page breaks in the table, then the text of the second column
is aligned at the middle of the column of the first page, and does not show up
in the rest of the same cell on the second page. This is what one would expect.
But after reopening the document, the text in column 2 is suddenly aligned at
the top of the cell--only after changing the alignment to top and then back to
middle, the alignment is correct again.

MRU->FME: open attached document and see cell B3 lower on the page. The row
breaks, thus it seems that the vertical cell alignment is initially calculated
wrongly. It should be centered.

I've something simular. If I have a table with merged cells and more then one 
column where I want the text vertical centred.  This works perfect as long the 
table is on one page.  But as soon he split over another page, and I insert 
text or change someting in the last column, the text in the other cell is not 
centred anymore.  To have it again centred, I need to align it first on top and 
then back centred.

Sorry, no news on this.
Comment 6 schaber 2008-12-05 15:38:20 UTC 
Could you set a target milestone for a fix for this issue, please?
Comment 7 frank.meies 2008-12-05 15:58:38 UTC 
Well, this issue has a target: 3.x although not a very specific one. I'm sorry,
but right now I cannot give you a better answer.
Comment 8 schaber 2009-05-02 18:55:29 UTC 
Could you at least define a specific target milestone? The issue is known over
one and a half year now, and it is a basic one (happens with native open office
documents, not only with Word documents).
Comment 9 schaber 2009-11-30 01:04:15 UTC 
Maybe at least a target milestone (3.3) to the second anniversary of this issue?
