            Bug ID: 141434
           Summary: First line of paragraphs in .docx files disappear when
                    I use hanging indents, even though text is still there
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dheider at iu.edu

Description:
I have noticed that when editing .docx files in LibreOffice Writer after using
hanging indents. Basically, everything works correctly until I use the hanging
indent. After using hanging indents and then closing a document, when I come
back to the document the first line of every paragraph has disappeared.

But the thing is, the text is still in the document, the first line is simply
invisible, so when I backspace on the second line (which is still visible) text
from the first line begins to appear. This has been happening almost every time
I use LibreOffice, and it makes it quite difficult since I use it for
citations. (I was able to confirm the text is still in the document by opening
it up in Microsoft Word, which shows the text still there.)

Steps to Reproduce:
I could not reproduce this on command, but it has happened multiple times.

Actual Results:
The first line of every paragraph disappears.

Expected Results:
The first line of each paragraph is visible.


Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The software should show the first line of each paragraph as visible.
