Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Binary package hint: libreoffice

1)
LibreOffice:
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch)
Release: 11.04

OpenOffice.org:
lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.10
Release: 10.10

2)
LibreOffice:
apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer
libreoffice-writer:
  Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu2
  Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu2 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100
/var/lib/dpkg/status

OpenOffice.org:
apt-cache policy openoffice.org-writer
openoffice.org-writer:
  Installed: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What is expected to happen is when one performs at the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/673702/+attachment/1729460/+files/Example.odt && lowriter -nologo Example.odt

the extreme top or bottom borders do not disappear when you click out of the table then reappear when you click inside the table.

4) What happens instead is the extreme top and bottom border disappears when you click outside of the table then reappears when you click inside it. The user-defined border prints and persist when exporting to PDF, irrelevant to if one clicked inside the table or not immediately prior.

WORKAROUND: Use Abiword.
WORKAROUND: (Unconfirmed) Compile newest OOo from source.

Confirmed, though it's not that easy to reproduce and fairly erratic. I'll take it.

[This is an automated message.]
There are no new official OpenOffice.org releases in Ubuntu packaging anymore => Won't Fix

If the problem persists, please mark this bug as "also affects project Libreoffice" or "also affects distribution Libreoffice (Ubuntu)" if that has not happened already.

Please leave references to upstream OpenOffice.org bugs in place to allow cross pollination.

this one is weird...

cannot get any border to disappear on OOo 3.0.1 or 3.4beta.

in LO 3.3.4, i can indeed get the top and bottom border to
disappear, but not by clicking, but by scrolling with
the mouse wheel, then once the area is visible, clicking
anywhere re-paints a visible border.

in LO 3.5.4, i cannot get any border to disappear.

perhaps (considering the borders are 1 twip wide) bug 42750
is related.

so resolving this as WORKSFORME; if anybody can reproduce it
with master or 3.5 please reopen.
