Priority: medium
Bug ID: 58778
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: FORMATTING: formats can easily be created without a
specified range (especially iconset)
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: john.pr...@cantab.net
Hardware: Other
Status: NEW
Version: 4.0.0.0.beta2
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
Problem: when creating a conditional format using CF->manage->add the range box
does not automatically contain any range and there is nothing to highlight that
this is missing, so conditional formats can easily be created which do not have
a range.
Steps to reproduce:
1. select: formatting->conditional formatting->manage->add
2. define the format in the box marked 'condition 1'
3. click 'OK'
Current behaviour: the dialogue closes and a conditional format is listed in
the manage window without a range; clearly this format cannot be used
Expected behaviour: a popup should appear to ask if you really want to save the
conditional format without a range (or should it simply not be allowed to
create a conditional format without a range), or the range field should be
highlighted in red whenever it is blank or has an invalid entry to draw
attention to it.
Partial alternative: I would be a lot less likely to do this if iconset
appeared on the list under formatting->conditional formatting, as the main
reason I use the add button on the manage window is to create an iconset, as
there is no menu item for these.
Another alternative: pre-fill the range box with the current selected cells
(but would this be a hindrance to some users)? It would be good for me, but
think this might any others!
