ODT file with all form controls

Hello!

I was going to create a simple web-form, which contain some Labels, Text boxes, Checkboxes etc.
I created new ODT document, opened "Form Controls" Toolbar, and found needed form elements here.

I discovered that if I open 'Page preview' up and down arrows in 'List Box' and 'Combo Box' are on place. But if I print the document with any printer (cups-pdf of physical printer) arrows do not exist.

I expect that output PDF (or sheet of paper) will look like in Print preview (otherwise WYSIWYG conception is broken and I will get unexpected result).

This bug created in addition to similar error on PDF export (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61736).

Hi, I can confirm that the down arrows are not printed on either a physical printer or after exporting to pdf. Thank you for reporting!

Page Preview is something different from Print Preview, so that reference is not a conclusive reasoning. NOTABUG!

But I think we need some more useful help telling differences between "Page Preview" and "Print Preview". I added this to my todo list.

The rest would be a DUP of "Bug 61746 - PRINTING Form controls "List Box" and "Combo Box" have no arrows on print", what itself is a DUP of Bug 61736
