<pre>Description:
Page break before/after terminology kind of confusing
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached file
2. Format -> Paragraph -> Text flow (or my preferred route: hoover over blue
page break bar + edit)
3. Change Position to After
4. Press OK
-> Page break vanishes
Actual Results:
The position 'before/after' is not self-explaining. And surely depending on
context. I couldn't find it in help/or documentation either.
Setting it to after actually disabled page break while page break still being
checked.
---
The idea is clearly
1. A text document containing multiple paragraphs AAA|BBB|CCC
2. Place cursor on line 2, BBB
3. Format -> Paragraph -> Text flow
4. Check insert break -> After
Result -> CCC moves to page 3
Why it's impossible to set a page style for the next page.. no clue.. it's
disabled.
Expected Results:
The first question. In which cases 'after' being actual addition.. I personally
insert page breaks pressing CTRL+Enter or Inset -> More breaks -> Manual
break..
Both don't have after setting.. Only with styles this makes sense (and before
doesn't, I think?)
After should be at least 'after paragraph' for understanding purposes. However
they initial issue would still be present.
