Screen shot of File Open dialogue with two ODT docs selected
When I select multiple LibreOffice docs in the LO File -- Open dialogue, two
error alerts pop up, saying "path … does not exist", and no docs open. Opening
the docs one at a time works.
=====
To reproduce
Run LibreOffice.
Create and save two empty Writer or Calc docs in the same directory, with
different names.
Close all LO docs.
Select menu item File -- Open. An OS File Open dialogue appears.
In the dialogue, navigate to the directory with the test files.
Select both files, using either click+shift-click, or click+command-click. See
screen shot in attachment, File Open dialogue screenshot 2024-02-23.png .
Click on the dialogues "Open" button.
=====
Observed behaviour
Two similar error alerts appear. They read, "The path "<path
/Users/myuser/…/test1.odt/file:///Users/myuser/…/test2.odt" does not exist."
[OK] See screen shots in attachments, Error alert 1 screenshot 2024-02-23.png
and Error alert 2 screenshot 2024-02-23.png .
After clicking the OK button to dismiss each error alert, no documents are open
in LibreOffice.
=====
Expected behaviour
No error alerts appear.
Both documents are open in LibreOffice.
=====
Discussion
Observed in LibreOffice 24.2.0.3, build for macOS Arm64, on macOS Monterey
12.7.3 on a MacBook Pro using an M1 Max chip.
100% repeatable.
Same symptoms when opening two .odt or two .ods documents.
