Bug ID: 115763
Summary: Lack of focus or ambuguous focus when opening a second
(or greater) spreadsheet; inconsistent focus behaviour
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.0.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: tagishsi...@gmail.com
Description:
In this bug, by 'focus', I'm pretty much meaning 'the ability to type stuff
into a cell'.
If I open Libre Office and ask for a New Spreadsheet, either using the splash
screen or the File - New - Spreadsheet menu, I enter into a spreadsheet and can
immediately type stuff into cell A1. All good.
If I now invoke a new spreadsheet, either by using the 'new spreadsheet' button
or using File, New, Spreadsheet, I enter into the new spreadsheet but I CANNOT
immediately type stuff into cell A1.
The UI gives every apperance of focus being on A1. But I actually have to click
the mouse on cell A1 (or another cell) to be able to enter data.
Likewise I cannot paste data into the new spreadsheet before I've clicked on
it.
So there is inconsistency between the behaviour exhibited with respect to the
first spreadsheet invoked in a session; and any later spreadsheets invoked in
the session.
It doesn't seem to matter if the first spreadsheet is still loaded, so a
pattern of 1) start LO 2) Invoke new spreadsheet 3) dismiss new spreadsheet 3)
Invoke New Spreadsheet ... will see the lack-of-focus issue with the second
spreadsheet, and with any created in the session thereafter.
Where is the focus in such cases? Who know.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Libre Office
2. Invoke new spreadsheet
3. enter data in A1 - note that you can do so immediately
4. Invoke another new spreadsheet
5. Note that you cannot enter data into A1 despite focus looking as if it is on
A1
Actual Results:
Cannot enter data into A1 of a second or greater new spreadsheet created in a
session, without mouseclicking on the spreadsheet; which is in contrast to the
ability to enter data immediateky when creating the first new spreadsheet of a
session
Expected Results:
Expected results are that user can immediately enter data into cell A1 of the
second or greater new spreadsheet created in a session, exactly as the user can
in the first new spreadsheet created in a session, i.e. without need to force
focus by clicking on the spreadsheet.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
