            Bug ID: 108233
           Summary: A paragraph inside a table cannot be given the
                    property "Page break before"
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: tony.g2 at vif.com

Description:
A paragraph can be given the property "Page break before" with the sequence:
  Format | Paragraph | Text Flow | Insert(on), Type(Page), Position(Before)

If the paragraph is inside a table, the Insert() check-box is grayed out.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document in Writer.
2. Display formatting marks - View | Formatting Marks
3. Insert a 2 x 2 table - Table | Insert Table | Insert
4. Place cursor in any cell of the first column of the table.
5. Show Text Flow dialog - Format | Paragraph | Text Flow

Actual Results:  
In the Text Flow dialog, the Insert box is disabled.


Expected Results:
In the Text Flow dialog, the Insert box should be enabled. 


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
If the cursor is placed in a paragraph which is not inside a table, then the
Insert box is enabled. If it is checked, the paragraph is moved to the next
page (i.e. it has a page break before).

In MS Word, it is possible to give the property "Page break before" to a
paragraph inside a table. I the paragraph is in a cell of the first column of a
table, this causes the row to be moved to the next page.

The attached file was created in MS Word 97.
The two paragraphs with the text "bb" both have the "Page break before"
property and are placed at the top of a new page when printed in MS Word.
