            Bug ID: 144418
           Summary: The Vertical Ruler is only visible on the page the
                    cursor is on (not the page displayed onscreen)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.0.2 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: tarotfied at protonmail.com

Description:
The Vertical Ruler is only visible on the page of the document you initially
set View > Rulers > Vertical Ruler — unless you click somewhere in a different
page or close the document and reload it (at which point, the Vertical Ruler
will be visible on page one of the document). The exception to this is if you,
for example, turn the Vertical Ruler on while viewing page two, but the cursor
is still on some other page in the document, in which case the Vertical Ruler
would be visible only on the page where the cursor is patiently blinking away —
not on the page you turned it on in. In other words, the Vertical Ruler is only
displayed on one page at a time, which is wherever the cursor is currently
located. This may or may not be considered a bug per se, and there may be an
issue with implementing any sort of change to rectify this due to the ability
to View > Show Whitespace, but it is a bit confusing when you turn the (in my
case, rarely used) Vertical Ruler on but do not see it.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a multi-page document
2. Place the cursor somewhere in page 1
3. Scroll to page 2 or 3 without placing the cursor on that page
4. Turn on the Vertical Ruler

Actual Results:
The Vertical Ruler does NOT appear on the page you are viewing when you turned
it on, but it DOES appear on page 1 where the cursor is located.

Expected Results:
Vertical Ruler appearing on every page throughout a multi-page document if it
is turned on.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
