[Bug 119419] New: Hidden Text Disappeared

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119419

          Priority: P3
            Bug ID: 119419
          Assignee: ooo-issues@incubator.apache.org
           Summary: Hidden Text Disappeared
          Severity: normal
        Issue Type: DEFECT
    Classification: Application
                OS: All
          Reporter: joe@booksXYZ.com
          Hardware: PC
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: version58
         Component: viewing
           Product: word processor

Using OpenOffice on Ubuntu.  I'm writing a manuscript, I have extensive notes
that I (cleverly, I thought) made hidden text, so that I could view them
quickly, but could still print up a note-less version to share with others.

Did this for several weeks, suddenly all the hidden text disappeared.  I click
Show hidden paragraphs, Show non-printing characters.  Nada. Gone. Vanished.
Vamoose.

Not some of it (it was interspersed among about 15 summaries), which it
occurred to me I might have inadvertently deleted editing visible text
(although I had checked that previously, it didn't seem that I could delete
hidden text while it was hidden).  All of it.

It was pages and pages of notes.  Fortunately, I had an older version in the
trash, didn't lose the work.

Thought you should know.

How a comment can be in hidden text?

Please provide exact steps to reproduce.

They were my own comments/notes in normal text interspersed around the
presentation text, not formal 'Comments' or 'Notes' as an OpenOffice feature.  

BTW, Ubuntu has now switched me to LibreOffice (without my consent BTW, a bit
cheeky).

Hidden text is preserved in Rev. 1500236 Debian.

Bug is confirmed because help is wrong in displaying hidden text:
"Enable the check mark at View - Hidden Paragraphs."

View - Hidden Paragraphs in checked by default.

Only variable value change or condition statement change will reveal the text.

I have try to repro it, but failed.
I create some of Hidden text and some comments and bookmarks.
Then insert some visible text, and delete some of visible text, then click show
none printing characters, the hiden text display fine.

Seems there have special operater or maybe the file i operator  is not complex
enough.
