Bug ID: 164978
Summary: Improvement: Highlight the column and row of the first
search result (even when Column/Row Highlighting is
disabled) and allow choosing the color of the
Highlighting
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
During a search in a complex spreadsheet, it is difficult to visually detect
the selected cell with the first result.
Having the row and column highlighting automatically or 'intelligently'
activated when searching and selecting a result speeds up the data review
process. This would allow the selected cell with the search result to be
highlighted without activating row and column highlighting.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on the View menú.
2. Click on Column/Row Highlighting.
3. Activate/Deactivate Row/Column Coloring.
Actual Results:
Activated: Column and row highlighting.
Deactivated: Column and row not highlighting.
Expected Results:
1. Click on the View menu.
2. Click on Column/Row Highlighting.
3. Activate the New Option Auto Highlighting (maybe in a submenu).
4. Find something.
5. The first cell with result is Highlighted.
6. Close the Find dialog.
7. The cell is not Highlighted.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
In another menu within the submenu, the user will be able to select the color
of the highlighting of their choice. They might be able to set colors that are
easily visible or select the desired color from the preferred palette.
