            Bug ID: 165684
           Summary: FILEOPEN .csv
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 24.8.2.1 release
          Hardware: ARM
                OS: macOS (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

I didn't intend to file a bug but Help->Feedback->Enhancement request brings me
here with no other obvious pages.

When opening a new .csv after LibOffice has been closed the 'import' section of
the dialog box for FileOpen remembers the last used setting for "from row". 
This small detail caused me a lot of confusion because a few days ago I was
importing a .csv and started from row 7.  

Today I imported a stock market closing .csv and could not figure out why the
import was not starting the correct place.  I assumed a bad file download.  But
opening in a text file showed I had everything I expected.

I bumbled around for sometime before the ah-ha moment arrived and I changed
'row 7' back to the default 'row 1'.

Perhaps remembering "from row" is an intended feature.  And I'm using an older
version of LibOffice because I simply don't need the latest and greatest.  So
maybe this is different in the latest version.

This comment is simply to inform you of my observation and I leave it to you to
decide if it qualifies for further action.

Thank you for the great product.
