Description aaronforjesus 2003-09-18 15:02:30 UTC 
Be able to see page breaks (with some form of marker like a square in the margin
of the paragraph or a line at the beginning or end of the paragraph) and when
double-clicked, it would bring up the Format->Paragraph dialog positioned at
Text Flow in order to format the page break.

I agree, that would be quite nice.
Comment 2 richfly 2005-03-05 14:00:12 UTC 
ABSOLUTELY!  I use a mixed report format (landscape & portrait in the same
document) and really need to be able to see these(section breaks as well), if
suddenly a page slips and loses half its contents while I'm enlarging a table, etc.
Comment 3 cns 2005-10-23 16:38:47 UTC 
Yes please! Also would appreciate the same for column breaks.
Comment 4 raindrops 2006-01-31 08:26:57 UTC 
AND section break. The user should be able to select it like a normal character
and delete it to remove the break.

There is no target for this?
Comment 5 temcat 2006-03-19 12:47:03 UTC 
Please please make this possible... This is one of the things that prevent me
from  doing any serious work with OOo.
Comment 6 cno 2006-05-01 08:22:15 UTC 
Page breaks are visible by the darker line (or any other coulor, set in
Tools|Options...) at the top of the new page.
This does not affect other wishes in this issue, of course.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
