Priority: medium
Bug ID: 84153
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: EDITING: Add "edit comment" to cell context menu
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.6.2 release
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. create a comment to a cell
2. right click that cell
3. observe context menu does not offer option to edit the comment
Current behavior:
as above
Expected behavior:
provided "edit comment" item in context menu
I note that:
1. The version of ms excel that I use does provide this item in the context
menu, and I am therefore accustomed to having it there.
2. The current procedure to edit a comment, which is not going to be obvious
to a naive user, apparently is as follows:
a. right click cell
b. select 'show comment' from context menu.
(Naive user: "What, the comment was already showing"
-- so this is a poor choice of wording.)
c. left click on comment to make it editable.
(Not obvious you need to do this to a naive user.)
d. do whatever editing is required.
e. left click on affected cell
f. select "hide comment."
(Naive user: "What, I don't want to hide the comment,
I want it to show when I hover over the cell" -- again
poor choice of wording.)
Wow, what a pain in the butt!
Now, let's compare to the equivalent process in my excel version:
a. right click cell
b. select "edit comment" from context menu.
c. edit the comment.
d. left click affected cell or anything else to return
to hover-shows-comment mode.
Note that fixing this could maybe share code with bug 83948.
Also note that I am using Version: 4.2.6.3, an option which was not offered in
the pulldown for this bug report.
