Bug ID: 172556
Summary: There should be an explanation when a macro can’t be
run because of the security settings
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: sdk
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
If you try to run a macro with the Run Macro dialog but it is blocked because
of the security settings then LibreOffice just silently does nothing. This is
very confusing for the user.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new text document
2. Click Tools -> Macros -> Organise Macros -> Basic
3. Select “Untitled 1”
4. Click New
5. Press OK to call the module Module1
6. When the BASIC macro editor appears, type print("hello") in between the Sub
and End Sub lines
7. Press Ctrl+S to save the document and give it a filename.
8. Close the macro editor window and return to the document window
9. Click File->Reload
10. Click Tools->Macros->Run Macro
11. Select Untitled 1.odt->Standard->Module1
12. Click run
Actual Results:
The dialog closes and nothing happens.
Expected Results:
There should be some sort of explanation such as a dialog box to explain why
the macro didn’t run.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
