Bug ID: 157710
Summary: Invoking a document among the recently accessed ones
no longer does anything if that document is already
open
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.6.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Among "File" | "Recent documents", after pressing the underlined number or
letter of the document I want to re-open or switch to (or clicking on it, or
using arrow-down and Enter), nothing happens if the document in question is
already open. In that case, it used to switch (i.e. "bring me") to the window
of the open document.
Tested on two machines. Also tested in safe mode. Also tested after resetting
profile.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have at least two documents open. Let's say the currently displayed and
focused one is "A".
2. Via the "File" menu, select "Recent documents" and, within the list that
opens, select document "B".
Actual Results:
Nothing happens except for the menu closing.
Expected Results:
The main display should (and used to) switch to the window where document "B"
is already open
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes

______________________
First noticed the bug on Linux Mint 21.2 running LibreOffice v. 7.5.6.2, but
verified it also exists on LO 7.6.2.1 (on another machine also running LM
21.2). This bug was not extant on LO v 7.3.7 and earlier. I don't know about
versions between 7.3.7 and 7.5.6.2.
