            Bug ID: 134499
           Summary: Weird behaviour of OLE texts (writer) in Draw &
                    Impress
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: leoboudet at orne-libre.fr

Description:
Hi everyone,
It seems that this kind of bug has been reported before but not exactly the way
I experience it.
When I insert an OLE text (previously created with LO Writer) in LO Draw or LO
Impress, I usually double-click on it and resize the inserted window to fit the
exact view I want to have on my Draw or Impress document.
This operation works on the first page of the OLE text but become unpredictable
from the second page. In this case (let's say for example that I want to
display the third page of the original Writer file), when I click back to Draw
or Impress, the selected view is not correctly transferred. Instead of it, I
get another part of the original document (and I honestly can't predict wich
one even if I see that there is probably some correspondance).
This phenomenon doesn't appear with a Calc OLE where I get easily the exact
view I'm looking for (cell by cell).

Thanks for your help.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a Writer document with several pages.
2.Open LO Draw/Impress.
3.Insert the Writer document (click & drag or OLE insertion) in the
Draw/Impress document.
4.Double click on the OLE Writer object and get a view of one of the Writer
document pages (except the first one) by resizing the window and/or scroll down
the pages.
5.Click back to the previous context (Draw or Impress).

Actual Results:
The view obtained is different than the view on the OLE Writer object in its
own context. The difference is hard to predict.

Expected Results:
Get the exact same view from the OLE Writer object and how it appears in the
Draw/Impress document.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
