Bug ID: 156298
Summary: Recorded macro in Writer is not saved when program
quits in LibreOffice 7.3.7.2 new
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.7.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: BASIC
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Using LibreOffice 6 I had recorded and saved several Basic macros in Writer
(Library Standard Module1). Now in LibreOffice 7.3 I tried to record and save a
simple macro. It works while I am using the program, but if the system closes
the program, the macro is not saved. This behaviour is new in version 7.3
I have also updated to Ubuntu 22 on my Slimbook laptop Essential15.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.record and save a macro
2. let Ubuntu close down all programs
3.restore Writer file and test the macro
Actual Results:
Click icon to record macro in Writer
press space bar
stop recording
save macro in Library Standard Module1 as "sp"
CTRL-S to save file
Assign "sp" to key CTRL-[space]
test by pressing CTRL-[space] -- successful
Allow computer to close down and close all programs automatically
Turn on computer and restore all active Writer files -- succeeds
Test the macro by pressing CTRL-[space] in any text -- fails,
with error message that the macro "sp" cannot be found.
Expected Results:
macro "sp" should appear in list of defined macros
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Manually closing the file and re-opening it did not remove the problem. I will
try manually quitting LibreOffice.
I do not know why Ubuntu is closing down -- I would normally expect it to
Suspend and keep files open. But in any case I never had this problem for
LibreOffice 6 even when Ubuntu closed the application and I had to recover the
files. I have not tried resetting my profile
