[page selection] Bug or wrong use?

Hello,

As shown, using Draw, I wanted to export just one (or a subset of) page from a PDF.

For some reason, Draw exports all the pages starting from the one I selected in the list of the left.

Am I using it wrong?

Thank you.

Do you have something selected?

Have you tried to use the option Pages and entered the page number you want to export?

Yes. As shown on the left, a page was selected when I clicked to export just this page to a smaller PDF.

LO Draw still includes the whole document, not just the selected pages.

Since I have a lot of pages to export, I’d like to avoid having to type page ranges manually (less work).

Either it’s a bug or “Selection” doesn’t do what I understand it to mean.

Selection refers to selections on a page itself, not to the Pages panel. I don’t think it is cumbersome to write 1-2,3-5 in the field to get pages 1,2,3,4,5 for example.

Not in my case, too many pages. Thanks anyway.
