Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 97151
Space between paragraphs filled with paragraph background color
Last modified: 2014-07-28 12:59:37 UTC
If you have several headings with the same paragraph background color, then the space between the headings will be filled with the paragraph background color of these headings. See A) in the attached picture with 2 headings (level 2+3). This bug doesn't occur when inserting a new paragraph in another style (e.g. Default - see B) in the picture) or after changing the background color of one heading (see C) in the picture). Expected behaviour: Space between headings shouldn't be filled with color anytime.

The problem is to kbow if "spacing" is part of the paragraph or not... Reassigned
I checked with "Ooo 3.0.0 (DE) Multilingual version German UI WIN XP: [OOO300m9 (Build9358)]" and can confirm the reported effect. Bug or feature? Pls. see attached "sample.odt"!

Writer fills the "Spacing" - which is inserted with Paragraph Style > Indents & Spacing > Spacing : Above paragraph/Below paragraph - with the paragraph background color. But the paragraph style says "_above_ and _below_ paragraph" to make a distance to other paragraphs. So, this spacing shouldn't be filled with the paragraph background color. And why is the "spacing" not filled when the paragraphs has different colors? This is definitely a bug and should not be a feature. It looks not "right".
Please, can someone change the status to NEW? This issue has been accepted and has a target milestone "later" - but I hope this "cosmetic usability issue" will not need a couple of years to be fixed.
IMHO bug.
Behavior present in Rev. 1516794 Win 7.
I have consolidate the paragraph margin problems in issue 125316. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 125316 ***
