            Bug ID: 125280
           Summary: Footer can not be made to appear only on the first
                    page after it has been filled with content
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: adalbert.hanssen at gmx.de

Description:
If the options _same content on first page_ and _same content on right and left
pages_ are deselected after a footnote really has content, they appear on all
pages despite of that.

I expect changing _Format>Page_ tab _Footer_, check marks _same content on
first page_ and _same content on right and left pages_ immediately after they
have been altered.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open an new document
2.enable Footers on the page default style
3.enable the two other options under it
4.enter some text to the footnote
5.enter a page break on the first side. Result: the footnote should appear on
both pages.
6.decide that you want the footer only on the first page: Go the the first page
7.Use _Format>Page_ tab _Footer_ to uncheck the two options  _same content on
first page_ and _same content on right and left pages_.

Actual Results:
7.The footer still appears on the second page. But it should not!

This bug can be circumvented by disabling footers altogehter (thereby loosing
the current content of it). Then you have to go back to _Format>Page_ tab
_Footer_, uncheck the check marks _same content on first page_ and _same
content on right and left pages_ and after this is done and the dialogue is
closed you may enter or paste the content for the footer.

Expected Results:
I expect the change to happen immediately after unchecking the check marks
_same content on first page_ and _same content on right and left pages_, even
if there already is content in the footer


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This has been found as a side finding of
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125256, but I was told to
file a new bug on this one (after I could not reproduce the other one).
