|
|
Is anyone else seeing this? I've seen it on two machines but do not know if it is PPC only or when it was introduced. PPC 10.4.11:
- Launch Neo 3.0 Patch 4
- Wait for new document window to open
- Use mouse to go up to "style" combo box in toolbar, lists "Default" initially
- Using mouse, click left of the "t" and drag left of "D" to highlight entire contents
- Note: trailling "t" disappears, highlighted text reverts to "Defaul"
- Hit "Delete" key; Note: "t" reappears and was not deleted
To remove the last "t", the "forward delete" ("X" with arrow, underneath "help" key on extended keyboard) is required.
Another potential manifestation:
- Open new Writer document
- Tools > Insert > Table
- In resulting dialog, use "Tab" to advance through edit fields
Results: Numerical entry in Columns/Rows edit fields disappears when tabbing through dialog
Expected: Numerical text display should continue regardless of which field has focus.
This behaviour appeared in either Patch 3 or Patch 4; I am not sure in which patch it was introduced. Patch 2 works as expected.
Can anyone else confirm either 10.5 or Intel for these cases?

I have opened bug 3495 to track this issue. When there is status to report from the bug, it will be posted here.

Update: This is not present in Patch 3 - TP 1; it seems to appear only in P4.

I found the cause of this bug and it is a side effect of my fix for bug 3478.
I have reworked my fix for bug 3478 and I am testing it to make sure that bug 3478 and related bugs don't come back. Once I finish my testing, I should have a test patch out by this Sunday.

FYI: Patrick found this is the same bug as the one in this forum topic.
The bug I opened in this forum has been closed as a duplicate of bug 3494.

Now, this is getting scary. Patrick fixed my bug before I even told him about it.
FYI, I was having a similar problem with dialogs in Calc, but the test patch fixed it. Thanks. _________________ Jim Plante
