            Bug ID: 137035
           Summary: Left page style not allowed when inserting manual
                    break and resetting page numbering to 1.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dr2867.business at pacbell.net

Description:
I am writing a technical document that is to be published to PDF.  It is not to
be printed.  When I try to insert a manual break and reset the page numbering
to 1, the new page is always on the right instead of falling to either right or
left.  When I try to force the issue by inserting a manual break and telling it
to use the left page and to start the page numbering at 1, it throws an error
telling me that I can't do that.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document.
2. Go to Format -> Page Styles
3. In the Header tab,
       Turn on the header
       Uncheck "Same content on left/right pages"
       Uncheck "Same content on first page"
4. Goto Insert -> More Breaks -> Manual Break.
       Select Page Break
       Under Page Style, select left page
       Check "Change page number"
       Set new page number to 1.
5. Click OK.


Actual Results:
An information box appears explaining that it's not allowed.

Expected Results:
A new page that is on the left side with page number starting at 1.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The user profile is not a problem as this computer had Windows installed on it
several weeks ago and this is the first time that I'm really using LibreOffice.
