nmb, thank you for reporting this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. There are at least 3 things wrong with the attached file:

1) cell content is shifted upward into other cells with table cells being deleted (this bug will focus on this),
2) table is resized,
3) table is shifted down into the page, with cells disappearing into it.

It is helpful to have one issue per bug. Hence, feel free to create separate bugs for the other two, and subscribe me to it. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

[Reproducible] with reporter's sample document and "LibreOffice 3.4.3 RC1 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO340m1 (Build:301)]", for details see attached screenshots!

Sample document looks fine with "LibreOffice Portable 3.3.3 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:301 Tag 3.3.3.1)]"

Please also see "Bug 40246 - FILEOPEN RTF: All rows or columns of table shown as one" and "Bug 39337 - RTF document with table not displayed correctly", what might have the same roots (or even be DUPs).

The VERSION picker seems to be wrong (LibO 3.3.2), report (and my results) say that there everything worked normal. So Version - > mine.

Rainer,

In master the table layout is fine (just like in 3.3), but it's still buggy, compared to Word: in Writer the first cell (not counting the header) is "1.\t31.", while in Word it's just "1.\t".

I'll try to see if I can fix that, I would not close this bug before.

Thanks.

It turns the issue I was talking about is a layout one, if you save the doc using Word as .doc, then the same problem is already there, let's forget about it for now.

So this bug should be fixed with

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=13c00ce322e78eb4e0f50ab84ded19cd6aae1ded

(Please don't request a backport, the new filter won't be backported to -3-4.)

Thanks.

Since all new unconfirmed bugs start in state UNCONFIRMED now and old unconfirmed bugs were moved to NEEDINFO with a explanatory comment, all bugs promoted above those bug states to NEW and later are automatically confirmed making the CONFIRMED whiteboard status redundant. Thus it will be removed.
