Bug ID: 151348
Summary: EDITING: Showing track changes moves cursor to last
deleted comment
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.4.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
If I create a new document, add some text, add a marginal comment or two, save
it as .docx, close the LO session, start a new one and open the saved .docx
again, go to Tools > Options > User Data and change the profile name, switch on
track changes, and delete one of the comments inserted under the old profile
name, then the comment persists (as deleted, i.e. with a cross through it; cf.
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105485, which however is
marked as fixed).
Moreover, if I now place the cursor in the main body of the document and toggle
"show track changes" until it is on, Writer will move the cursor into from the
body of the document into the deleted comment. I would expect toggling track
changes to leave the cursor in the body of the document.
I've found this behavior particularly unfortunate when working on long
documents with multiple editors; every time I toggle "show track changes" I'm
shot off to a totally different part of the document.
Fwiw, I've checked this with a colleague who runs a similar setup (same Linux
distro/version so probably same LO version) and they were able to reproduce.
