Description vimacs.hacks 2016-08-18 06:17:14 UTC

I'm using LibreOffice-fresh 5.2.0.4 and I cannot import a template with template manager. But it's ok in LibreOffice-still. I'm using Arch Linux with i3 window manager.

Steps to reproduce:
1. File->Templates->Manage Templates, or Shift-Ctrl-N
2. Click 'Import'
3. Select 'My Templates' Category and click 'OK'
4. Then there's a file selection window, but I cannot click anything in the window. I can only click cancel of the Template window and then click OK of the file selection window, and no templates imported.

I cannot confirm it for Windows. Here is works with the Windows file dialog and with LibreOffice file dialog as well. I have tested it with Version: 5.2.0.2

Which kind of file dialog do you use, that from your OS or that from LibreOffice?

Comment 2 vimacs.hacks 2016-08-19 06:24:35 UTC

In Arch Linux, it's using a GTK3 file dialog. I tested it again in Debian Testing. Without libreoffice-gtk3 installed, there's no such a bug, but after I install libreoffice-gtk3, I can reproduce this bug.

The intermediate dialog is taken as the parent of the file selector, but its not a suitable candidate post Execute so the grab stack is all wrong. Other places where that category dialog are used do the right "Close" call before going on to fire up a new toplevel file picker
