Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10760
Include option to hide blank lines when generating labels
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:36 UTC
When using the labels auto-pilot there should be an option to add in the hidden-paragraph fields automatically, i.e. if the option is checked then adding the field Members.Scotland.Address1 should be prefixed with HiddenParagraph.not(Address1)
Reassigned to BH
Updating Version and OS
Also. Option to leave some labels empty (when some stickeys are already removed from paper and I want to print the rest ones). Also, when I have more labels than one page. Then what? As far as I searched, I cannot print more than one page.

Issue 15100 has now been fixed which was blocking this enhancement. Correct me if I'm wrong, but surely the sudo code for this is along: * Tick Box "Hide blank lines" on GUI which sets HBL Insert Database Field Names routine { if HBL = 1 then insert hiddenparagraph(not($FIELD)).$FIELD else insert $FIELD endif
I'm creating labels using OOo's File->New->Labels feature, but several of my labels have empty field values, and I'd like to suppress their output when I do a mail merge. Currently: -------------- John Doe Something, CA 38924 ------------------------------ What I'd like: ---------------- John Doe Something, CA 38924 ------------------------------ Avery Wizard and MS Word offer a feature like Suppress Blank Lines. Thanks very much for your considering this bug.

Not a duplicate of 20057 as this other issue never approached the UI for hidden paragraphs.
Opening new bug as this hasn't been addressed in 1.9 so far... :-( *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 36696 ***
Closed.
