Re: [libreoffice-design] writer pages are driving me crazy

I agree with Andrew. I have faced this 'issue' too. In my case, this 
happens when I am moving back and forth between my laptop and desktop. 
My desktop has a 24 inch monitor and when I am working on a document, I 
zoom in to about 150% there. When I want to work on the same document on 
my laptop that has a samller screen, LibO remembers (rightfully so) that 
the zoom level for the document is 150% but left aligns the page showing 
empty margins while center aligning the page would still be able to 
display the contents properly.

I hope someone could shed light on this behavior - is this an expected 
one? a designed feature, or a bug that needs fixing?

Thanks,
Vamsi.
