Bug ID: 156319
Summary: A series of Writer bugs / a request enhancement
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.4.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: user2...@proton.me
Description:
(0) - Header and the entire document does not support Table variables.
(1) - How to edit an expression within a table is not obvious.
(2) - Unable to send an email via Mail Merge, it would be ideal if I could have
an option to delegate the email transmission aspects to my Mail Transfer Agent
(MTA) which in this case is Thunderbird.
(3) It would be more ideal if the "Severity" menu was a set of text boxes
rather than a drop down menu.
A example document will be attached for (0) and (1) but not (2) due be Personal
Information (PII) adjacent.
Steps to Reproduce:
(0)
0. Open a fresh document.
1. Create a table with at least two rows (example will be attached.
2. Create a header with a valid reference which works from within side another
table. e.g <Table1.B2> which is simply 1.
(1)
0. Open a fresh document.
1. Create a new table.
2. Reference a row within an expression e.g. = <Table1.B2> + 1 which correctly
renders 2.
(2)
0. Write up a mail merge "file" with an associated contact database.
1. Click on "Send Mail Messages"
2. Select "To: Email Address"
3. If desired, enter a subject line.
4. Select "Send as: Plain Text"
5. Click on "Send Documents"
Actual Results:
(0)
Header "Version: <Table1.A2>"
<Table1.A2>
<Table1.A2> is only recognized within <Table2.B2>.
(1)
Hovering on <Table2.B2> shows me the formula, = <Table1.B2> + 1
(2)
A redacted error log is included below.
<class 'smtplib.SMTPSenderRefused'>: (550, b'5.7.1 Authentication is required
to use this service', 'EMAIL'), traceback follows
File "C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\program\mailmerge.py", line 262, in
sendMailMessage
self.server.sendmail(sendermail, truerecipients, msg.as_string())
File "C:\Program
Files\LibreOffice\program\python-core-3.8.16\lib\smtplib.py", line 885, in
sendmail
raise SMTPSenderRefused(code, resp, from_addr)
Expected Results:
(0)
Header "Version: 1.0.0"
1.0.0
(1)
There is some means to edit for the formula outside of re-creation.
(2)
Email is sent
Reproducible: Always
