--- Comment #3 from Peter CM <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Robinson Tryon (qubit) from comment #2) > Peter: Did this bug exist in previous versions of LibreOffice? If it > didn't, then that can help us track down when it was introduced. Sorry -- Although I used OpenOffice for around a year back in 2007, I have only been using LibreOffice since around December of 2013. Moreover, I didn't attempt to do any indexing in either suite until very recently, in LibreOffice 4.3.5.2 release. As a result, I can't *personally* say whether the bug is longstanding or newly introduced. HOWEVER, as I mentioned at the start of the current bug report, the problem does seem to be at least partially described in Bug 43530, which was reported in December 2011: "2. I also find that the Index Entry dialogue behaves very peculiarly if you leave it up but go to refer to another file for information or whatever; it reverts to its first entry or qa string of other entries from previous indexing, and it is not clear in any help that I have seen how the up-down arrows and the right and left behave. This has been very frustrating when doing two or three hundred entries!!" There were replies from sasha.libreoffice@gmail (Comments 3 and 4) that seemed to confirm the problem, characterizing it an inappropriate autocompletion issue. However, the bug was apparently never assigned. I'm pretty sure the author of Bug 43530 didn't identify which versions of OpenOffice and LibreOffice he had experienced the behavior on, but we have a pretty good idea that it has been around at least since whatever versions were the most recent as of December 2011. (And since I get the impression that the author was an ordinary non-coder user, like me, I'd guess that he was using stable releases, also like me.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
