Title:
[upstream] can't remove new line after table in writer
Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
Confirmed
Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Binary package hint: LibreOffice
1)
LibreOffice:
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch)
Release: 11.04
OOo:
Hardy
2)
LibreOffice:
apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
libreoffice-writer:
Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu2
Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu2
Version table:
*** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu2 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100
/var/lib/dpkg/status
OOo:
OpenOffice Writer 2.4.1
3) What is expected to happen is when one performs at the Terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && wget
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/254655/+attachment/2010494/+files/example.odt
&& lowriter -nologo example.odt
one may delete page 2 by going to the end of the page 1 table and
clicking Delete on the keyboard.
4) What happens instead is that the table insists on being followed by
a new line. This means that you cannot get rid of new line characters
between tables. It also means that you cannot get rid of a new line
character when it follows a table at the end of a document. This
latter case can mean that you need to reduce the size of the bottom
page margin just to make sure then new line character doesn't get
printed on a new page. What ought to happen is that there should be no
new line of text after a table unless you actually want one.
WORKAROUND: Secondary click the table -> primary click Table... -> click the Borders tab -> in the Spacing to contents area, the four fields are 0.04" by default with the Synchronize checkbox checked. Change all 4 fields to 0 -> click the OK button. Change the font size of the space to 1 and notice the second page disappears with the cursor immediately below the table on the first page.
WORKAROUND: Go to end of paragraph in right bottom cell -> Ctrl+Shift+Delete.

Tables in OpenOffice.org Writer" in chapter "Shortcut Keys for
OpenOffice.org Writer.
