--- Comment #20 from Crusader <[email protected]> --- I would like to share my "discovery" in the hope someone, somewhere knows the link between opening a saved document (file) from "Recent Documents" and opening the same saved document (file) using the "Open File" menu in LibreOffice. When I open a saved spreadsheet from the "Recent Documents" group, the highlighted cell doesn't have focus. I have to press the Tab key to give the highlighted cell focus — the basis of this topic. Since then, I have learnt that opening the same saved file (spreadsheet) using the "Open File" menu by clicking on "Open File," going to the correct folder (and sub, sub, folders as needed), and then clicking on the saved file name to open the file, results in the spreadsheet being opened with focus. I have verified this multiple times using same/different spreadsheets, at different intervals, by saving/not saving files, etc. The question I have is: what is it about the "Recent Documents" group that is "denying" focus to saved files when they are opened? The same saved files opened via "Open File" menu have focus. One thing is clear: opening a saved file (spreadsheet) from "Recent Documents" group is better (at least for me). Pressing Tab key is the only step I have to take to give focus to the highlighted cell. On the other hand, opening a saved file via "Open File" menu, while offering focus to highlighted cell, requires [many] more mouse clicks/key presses — depending on file location — making it an inefficient route for opening saved files. Thoughts, ideas, suggestions? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
