<pre>Checked with:
Version: 6.3.0.1
Build ID: 41ac97386aba908b6db860cfb4cfe2da871886ae
CPU threads: 4; OS: Mac OS X 10.11.6; UI render: default; VCL: osx;
Locale: en-GB (en.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded
Results:
1. There is still no way that I can find to include
Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set in PDF files generated with "Export As ...
PDF" (Same behaviour as LO 6.2).
2. Display of Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set is now controlled by the
"View>Formatting Marks" option AND the "Display Formatting: Hidden Characters"
check-box on the "Preferences>LibreOffice Writer>Formatting Aids" preferences
pane - these paragraphs are only displayed on-screen if both these options are
selected. However, there are also confusingly-similar check boxes on the
"Preferences>LibreOffice Writer>View" pane called "Display Fields: Hidden text"
and "Display Fields: Hidden Paragraphs". These do not seem to influence diplay
of Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set.
The fact that the "Display Formatting: Hidden Characters" check-box now DOES
control display of hidden text is a step forward. However, I still find it
confusing that "View>Formatting Marks" influences the display of
Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set; formatting marks and hidden text seem to
be orthogonal concepts to me.
3. "Export ..." for PNG and JPEG is much improved. If
Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set are visible on-screen (i.e. both the
"View>Formatting Marks" option AND the "Display Formatting: Hidden Characters"
check-box on the "Preferences>LibreOffice Writer>Formatting Aids" preferences
pane are set) then the saved image includes the
Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set; if the Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set
are not visible on-screen, then they are not included in the saved image.
4. I can still find no way of making "File>Print Preview" display
Paragraphs-with-the-hidden-flag-set, even if those paragraphs are printed with
"File>Print".</pre>
