Bug ID: 147868
Summary: "[+] Add New sheet" button should be disabled when
"sheet structure" is protected
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.1.5.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Found in 7.1.5, confirmed in 7.3.1.3 - probably all Calc versions having that
button
1. Open any workbook
2. Go main menu Tools / Protect sheet structure and check it.
(i am speaking of Russian i18n, so the your menu item names may be slightly
different)
3. Go main menu Sheet / Insert new Sheet - you would see that the menu items
are disabled, OK
4. look down to the sheets tabs, left of them there is [+] button to add new
sheet. It is NOT disabled. But clicking on it gives no error - but just a
do-nothing. Really confusing!!!
Minimal fix - make the button disabled when "sheet structure protection" is on.
Better fix - make button LOOK disabled, but when user hover or click it - show
the actionable hint/message, why this button can not work now, and what to do
to re-enable it.
Same to be with items like main menu Sheet / Insert new Sheet - while looking
disabled that should obtain an actionable hint or error message, so user would
now how to re-enable them without googling.
