Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 78405
RPT: property 'force new page' does not work
Last modified: 2012-03-01 22:32:33 UTC
0. open a new database 1. create a table with any fields 2. open the report designer and bind it to the table 3. select 'detail' area 4. try property 'force new page' with anything else than default setting: 'none' 5. execute the report -> empty document is created
set keyword 'new_implementation'

On my system I get just a blank Window with nothing (no menu-bar, no toolbar) inside. However, if I generate the report outside of OpenOffice and then zip the contents into an odt-file, OpenOffice-Writer recognizes the document and displays it. However, the 'force-new-page' thing is ignored and one large table is generated, which is a bug.
I cannot reproduce the problem with the empty document UI, so please let's keep this out of this issue, please What I can reproduce is that in the 0.4.0 build, an empty window is opened when you try to execute the report. fs->tmorgner: Unfortunately, after your latest fix, the document window is not empty, and the page breaks are inserted properly, /but/ all detail records except the very first one are empty. I'm going to attach a bugdoc (which is what should have been done from the beginning, to avoid misunderstandings and all those "I cannot reproduce", "this behaves different on my machine" ...)
Created attachment 45959 [details] document to reproduce the bug case
fixed with Thomas' latest patch, committed to CWS oj14
targeting to 2.3, since the fix is part of a CWS aiming for this release
fs-> msc: please verify in CWS oj14
reassign to clu
