Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 22079
cannot preview or print after move/copy sheet
Last modified: 2003-11-06 00:35:41 UTC
After copying a sheet, using move/copy sheet, to an existing workbook (either the same as the source or a different one), the copied sheet cannot be printed or previewed. When copying to a new workbook, print and preview do work, but the page settings are lost.
Hi, this is a double to Issue 3560. Not copying the page settings is the intended behaviour. Frank *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 3560 ***

I find this very counter-intuitive. If the decision has been made not to retain the print area settings, then it would be more logical to default the print area to everything, rather than nothing (which is what happens when you copy to a new workbook). Also, why aren't page settings retained when copying a sheet within a workbook?
Hi, 1.) If you have defined printranges and on copying a sheet these ranges are reset to default, this is not what the user want. Also why should the print range doubled ? Is it really what the user want's ? I think no because you get the same page / pages printed twice if we copy the print range also. 2.) As OOo is style centric and styles can't be copied with the sheet because there could be a style with the same name but different settings.
1) I'm not sure yet that you fully understand the problem, but as long as Issue # 3560 is being implemented as a feature, then I'm happy. 2) Agreed.
