            Bug ID: 122434
           Summary: AltSearch extension does not work in a Table in LO
                    Writer
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: adalbert.hanssen at gmx.de

Description:
I often use batch command to exchange ‘\p‘ (paragraph marks) by  ‘\n‘ (forced
line feed).
However, If I apply AltSearch 1.4.2 in LibreOffice Writer Version Version
6.1.4.2 under Xubuntu 16.04.5 LTS (x86-64) and replace the batch command to
replace paragraph marks by forced linefeeds, it simply replaces the marked
portion in a table by the sequence of a line feed .
The same batch applied to some marked portion of a LO Writer document which
does not comprise any table works as expected.
This seems to be a bug in AltSearch.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.insert a table into a LO Writer document.
2.Paste some text into any field of that table, e.g. copied output of ls -l.
3.Mark several lines in this text spanning some paragraph marks.
4.Use AltSearch to rexchange (as a regular search) \p by \n.

Actual Results:
The marked portion in the LO Writer document's table gets replaced by a single
forced line feed (\n) rather than all \p are replaced by \n.

Expected Results:
just the paragraph marks replaced by forced line feeds.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
