--- Comment #10 from Forester <[email protected]> ---
Thank you QA team for your renewed interest.
Another year has passed. It is now four years since I reported this bug and
its status is still NEW.
Did any one read the comment I wrote last year I wonder ? Will anyone read
this year's comments ?
This bug is a regression introduced between 3.5 and 3.6.
The bug is in com::sun::star::table::BorderLine.
It was introduced with the release that added
com::sun::star::table::BorderLine2.
I strongly suspect the new class broke the old one: it is a regression.
There is nothing in the on-line LibreOffice documentation of
com::sun::star::table::BorderLine to indicate that there is an alternative
implementation in com::sun::star::table::BorderLine2.
There are now notes on the CellProperty Service Reference against the new
public
attributes saying they are to be preferred over old attributes but not vice
versa. Not very clear or satisfactory. Preferred is not the same as
deprecated.
I did some trials and although I found com::sun::star::table::BorderLine2 far
from 'nice' it did at least not have the awful broken behaviour of
com::sun::star::table::BorderLine reported in the original problem description
of this bug report that has since got worse, not better.
So I switched to using com::sun::star::table::BorderLine2 despite the
not-so-good corner aesthetics.
>From my perspective, if the project were to update the on-line documentation of
com::sun::star::table::BorderLine to state that this class is deprecated and
folks should use com::sun::star::table::BorderLine2 instead, I would be happy
to see this bug report closed.
However, before you congratulate yourselves on another zero effort bug fix,
consider importing an Excel spreadsheet.
I use LibreOffice (d'oh) and have never used Excel except as a data format.
However, I recall, that, in an attempt to prove this bug report was not Python
specific, I did trying importing into LibreOffice 5.1.x an Excel spreadsheet
that used cell borders. I'm pretty certain the imported LibreOffice
spreadsheet used com::sun::star::table::BorderLine and not
com::sun::star::table::BorderLine2.
Perhaps you might want to check that, raise another bug report and close this
one as a duplicate.
Oh, BTW, bad behaviour sill there in 5.2.3.
