GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 743916
cell printed twice
Last modified: 2018-05-22 14:16:55 UTC
Created attachment 296003 [details] .xlsx file to reproduce the problem Steps to reproduce: - open the attached .xlsx file - click on "print preview" => the cell containing "5 cm from" is printed on page 1 (on the right) and again on page 7 (on the left).
cell H1 (that is the cell containing the text "5 cm from") is only printed once, on the first page. That text also overlaps into cell I1, So the text is also printed when cell I1 is printed, which happens on the next page. If you do not want that to happen just don't have text that overlaps into the next column. While we could clip the the page frame, I don't think you would necesarily appreciate the text "5 cm from" being slightly cut off on the first page and you having a few extra black pixels on the second page.
I would personally prefer the clipping solution than to have duplicated texts. Then you can still adjust the column width to avoid clipping.
Last time we enabled clipping on the page content, printing and previewing became unacceptably slow. Since this is within cairo, we have no control over the speed. Note that if you had a print area set you probably would not even have noticed.
