Hi Warren,

Thanks for troubling to CC me with this.  Yes, I still see the issue on LO
Writer V7.1.0.3.

It is particularly irritating that when a document is opened in single page
mode the first page is initially paginated to occupy one screen space but then
paging down moves the page upwards by about 1/3rd of a page and then further
presses of <page down> *do* succeed in moving the pages down by 1 whole page
worth so after the first miss-location Writer seems to remain perfectly in sync
but 1/3 of a page out :-)

It's definitely a bug.

I am coming to the conclusion wrt open source programs like this and eg FireFox
that when a program develops to the point that it is a threat to commercial
interests it seems to be the case that specifically the bug-reporting and
user-facing elements of the project become increasingly hostile to the
description of bugs *as* bugs and very trigger happy about closing them with
seemingly *any* behaviour accepted as "intended".  Anyone else see this ?

Certainly anyone using the hand-wringing association that FF laughingly calls
"support" pages  these days must feel that John Cale's live act from 1979 plays
a part ;-)

Boo
