Description whitercjr 2001-11-08 03:48:00 UTC
I have a large document saved as .SXW which I can not scroll to the last page 
of.  It worked fine as a .doc and .SDW.  Once saved as an .SXW and reopened the 
word processor will not scroll down to make the text on the last page fully 
visible.

There is a reasonable amount of formating.  In particular there is a title 
page, Table of contents, various manual breaks to make it "like a book" with 
chapters starting only on right-hand pages.  The first chapter break after the 
table of contents has a set-page-number-to-one setting.  Footers on the chapter 
leader pages and alternating headers on all the other pages.  With all that it 
could be a rounding error in the "how many pixels tall is the whole scroll 
region" kind of thing.

Since it is an unpublished work and quite large (382 pages, 204 thousand words) 
I don't want to attach it here.  I don't have a webserver on which I can put 
the document but I can send it to a developer under the general understanding 
that it not get around. 8-)

I asked the submitter to send me the document.
Comment 2 stefan.baltzer 2001-11-20 15:42:42 UTC
I got the document and I could reproduce it in the current internal version too. I submitted an internal bug (ID=95005) for this.
Robert: As a workaround, press <Ctrl>+<End> to get the cursor to the end of the document and add some empty paragraphs or a 
page break. Result: The last page (that refuses to show its bottom) is an empty one.

Reassigned to Andreas.

The problem were empty pages, which were created when a right page 
follows another right page.
Fixed in 641 q.

641b on Windows still/again exhibits the same behavior (with the 
added bonus that now the .SDW format files are broken now too)
Comment 5 andreas.martens 2001-12-20 15:55:19 UTC
Fixed in Open Office 641 c.
