** Summary changed: - LibreOffice Writer and Calc finds the watermark "Find" if nothing is written in the Find textbox on Toolbar + Writer Find textbox on Toolbar finds the watermark "Find" if nothing is written
** Tags added: lo33 ** Description changed: Binary package hint: libreoffice - The problem is difficult to explain but here's what I'm facing. + 1) lsb_release -rd + Description: Ubuntu 11.04 + Release: 11.04 - I open a document in a LibreOffice Writer or Calc. The toolbar has - "Find" texbox followed by two arrowbuttons, Up Arrow and Down Arrow (See - Screenshot attached). Now, nothing is written in that textbox and by - default, it has watermark showing the word "Find". Now what happens is, - when I click on any of the two arrow buttons aside, the LibreOffice - looks for word "Find" in the document, that is, it treats watermark - "Find" actually a search term. Otherwise, search is working properly, - but if textbox is blank and nothing is written in it, watermark is - considered as search term. This is weird behavior, and instead of - looking for "Find" in the document, user must be prompted to enter - search term if Textbox is empty, rather than taking watermark as query. - The problem exists in both Writer and Calc, don't know about Impress or - draw, since none of them have Search Textbox on toolbar by default. + 2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer + libreoffice-writer: + Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 + Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 + Version table: + *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-proposed/main i386 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages + + 3) What is expected to happen in Writer is when one clicks inside the + Find textbox on the Toolbar, the word find disappears. + + 4) What happens instead is the word find is still inside the box. This + does not occur in Calc. + + WORKAROUND: Delete the word Find and type in the desired search.
