Bug 56117

Wird ein Paragraph mit Textmarke kopiert und als Fußnote abgelegt, dann geht die Textmarke verloren.
Dies funktionierte noch unter OOo 2.4.

Not a BASIC issue (BASIC is the programming/macro language), but a basic Writer problem. → Changed Component accordingly.

Translation of comment #0:

If you copy a paragraph containing a bookmark and put the text into a footnote, the bookmark is lost.

This worked in OOo 2.4.

Created attachment 69067 [details]
Sample file created by the steps given in comment #4.



Well, I can NOT reproduce this with LibreOffice 3.6.3.1 (Build ID: f8fce0b) on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Intel)

If I
1) create a new Writer document
2) enter two paragraphs of text
3) insert a bookmark named (e.g.) ”My_simple_bookmark” into the
   second paragraph
4) copy the whole second paragraph
5) insert a new footnote into the first paragraph
6) paste the clipboard (containg the text of the second paragraph)
   into the footnote,

the Navigator window shows two bookmarks now, my original one, still called ”My_simple_bookmark”, and a second one, pointing to the copy of the bookmark in the footnote text and named ”My_simple_bookmark1”.

The sample file created by these steps is attached.

So for me everything works as expected.

@ Mathias Kinsele:

Thank you for your bug report!

However, it is not easy to reproduce this issue. Either this problem depends on the platform/OS (Windows vs. Mac OS), or this bug was fixed between 3.6.1.2 and 3.6.3.1 (but I am not aware that such a bug was fixed), or there is some special condition which is not clear from the original description of the bug.

Could you please check what happens when you repeat the steps given by me in comment #4? Does everything work as expected (A), just like for me? Or do you still see the bug (B)?

(A) If everything works, we know that there is some special condition which is necessary that the bug occurs. Could you please try to find out what you did differently (compared to my steps in comment #4) when you faced the bug?

(B) If the bug is reproducible for you by my steps from comment #4, could you please check if you can still reproduce it with the most recent version of LibreOffice (3.6.3.1 or, in a few days, 3.6.3.2, both available from
   http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/
)?

And please report your results here.

Thank you very much in advance!

The steps shown in comment 4 work as shown.
But if the paragraph that you copy/move starts with a bookmark than this one is lost.
So the bugtitle should be: "If you copy/move a paragraph that starts with a bookmark into a footnote, that bookmark is lost."

(In reply to comment #6)

> is lost.

Ah, this was the missing piece of information -- thank you very much!

Now I can REPRODUCE the issue also on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Intel) with
* LibreOffice 3.3.0
* LibreOffice 3.4.0
* LibreOffice 3.5.0
* LibreOffice 3.6.3.1;
this is very probably an old bug inherited from OOo.

Therefore changed Summary as proposed in comment #6, set Platform to All/All, set Version to the first version which is known to contain the bug, and set Status to NEW (confirmed).

Thank you again!
