            Bug ID: 126083
           Summary: Randomly disappearing borders of merged table cells
                    (also in PDF export)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4 all versions
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: cyberrob1 at gmx.de

Description:
I have documents containing a lot of tables with moderately complex structure,
i.e. some merged cells horizontally and vertically. See attached document
TableBorderTest.odt. 

When I create or edit the document and save it, sometimes a part of the border
of the leftmost table cell (which spans several rows) disappears. This is not
only a display issue but is also visible in the exported PDF document. See
attached TableBorderTest.pdf on page 31.

When I set the cursor to a cell in the afftected table eare and for example
insert a line break and delete it again, in most cases the border re-appears.
See attached GIF image TableBorderTest.gif. Sometimes the effect then is
visible at a complete different location in the document.

I also opended the attachet ODT on another machine. All borders were there.
Then I just enabled the Page Header in the Format -> Page dialog. This changed
the layout around and a border disappears at another position in the document.

This behavior makes the effect somewhat difficult to reproduce. But it seems to
be there for several versions, I reproduced it on another machine using
Libreoffice 5.4.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached TableBorderTest.odt
2. Zoom out and look for missing table borders in leftmost column.
3. If none are there, enable Header in Format -> Page dialog and look again


Actual Results:
Sometimes missing cell borders, also in PDF export

Expected Results:
All cell borders visible


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: No
