            Bug ID: 120070
           Summary: Where there is conditional text within hidden
                    paragraph, paragraph is always visible
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.0.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

zip of writer file and base file

Since v6, or at least 6.1.0.3, a hidden paragraph is always visible if it
contains conditional text. This was not so in v5.4.7.2.

The attachment contains a simple writer file (Test.odt) with 4 conditionally
hidden paragraphs, the conditions relating to the data in Testdata.odb. To use
mailmerge, the data source must be registered.

Open Test.odt, make the data source visible and write one of the records to the
fields in Test.odt

If the first record (with "number" = 1) is written to the fields, paragraphs 1
and 3 should be hidden, but 3 remains visible .
If the second record ("number" = 2) is written to the fields, paragraphs 2 and
4 should be hidden, but 4 remains visible.

The hidden paragraphs always remain visible when there is further conditional
text within the paragraph. This should not be so and was not so in previous
versions.
