    Default Page resize deletes locked text objects

    I've got this in my hands right now; I'm playing Undo/redo and can see how four locked text object get deleted automatically along with manual page resize operation.
    Those text objects are far from page edge, so that should not be the reason for their deletion.

    This cannot be a common bug, but looks like a bug anyway.

    By looking at the Object Gallery I can see those objects are not deleted, but thrown away somewhere. Haven't found yet where. By using Shift+A (Show selected objects) I'm being moved somewhere in the middle of two pages.

    Definitely strange...

    Markku can you attach the file you are experiencing this bug?

    It will help track down the cause.

    Thanks Bill, I'll have to think about your offer. Confidential material, you know.

    Just did some more testing. When I unlock those objects they do not get deleted. When I lock them back again and resize the page they disappear (even from wireframe view). I can still see them in Object Gallery, but they are not visibly anywhere.

    You can email a file to me if that would be acceptable.

    Bill, if you're interested I've got a video. Won't help much but it would help to prove I'm not seeing UFO's.

    Markku I believe you are seeing what you describe.

    It is easier to track down a bug when a file exhibiting the behaviour is available. Otherwise it is just an exercise in typing and reading. Not much can be done to actually identify the cause of the bug.

    Yes I have the file and will start to examine it shortly.
