I can not confirm this behaviour in LO 3.3.4, OpenSuSE Linux 32bit. Which version of LO do you mean? I don't think this has been a only-MAC-feature.
I just tried LibreOffice 3.3.3 OOO330m19 (Build:301), and he works as I explained. ADD: Also the LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401) worked as I explained. ADD: the LibreOffice 3.4.0 OOO340m1 (Build:12) has instead the same bug I found in 3.5.5.3 SUMMARY: the list-box works fine in 3.3.3 and 3.3.4, and begin to show the problem in 3.4.0 --> 3.5.5.3 So this seem to be a feature in the earlier versions, which only works with MAC. I set this Bug to New and hope, other person could confirm it. This issue was not yet confirmed by a person different from the reporter, so I reset the status to UNCONFIRMED. (No offence -- just sorting bug reports!) @ Alex Thurgood: Hi Alex, you have got more experience with database issues than me (I have to confess that I am not even sure if I understand the issue completely). Can you confirm this issue? Seems to be a regression ... Thank you very much, Roman Hi *, the problem is that only a few QA-people (perhaps nobody with Database-interest) are using Mac. I fear that this bugrepot can not be reproduced so quickly. (In reply to comment #8) > Hi *, > the problem is that only a few QA-people (perhaps nobody with > Database-interest) are using Mac.

On the contrary, I have a Mac and am interested in databases ;-) which is why Roman asked me to take a look, but I'm not always in front of my OSX machine. At weekends, I'm mostly on my Linux box. Will take a look tomorrow. I do have a few questions though to the original poster : How is the list box created ? SQL, direct entry in a predetermined list, or some other way ? (if so, how ?) The fact that is worked in previous versions is interesting, I have 3.3.4, 3.5.6 and a dev daily on my OSX machine, but it would be helpful to have a sample test file with which to play around, rather than having to create one myself. Setting needinfo Alex (In reply to comment #9) > How is the list box created ? SQL, direct entry in a predetermined list, or > some other way ? (if so, how ?) The columns with this problem use a query as "type of list contents". > The fact that is worked in previous versions is interesting, I have 3.3.4, > 3.5.6 and a dev daily on my OSX machine, but it would be helpful to have a > sample test file with which to play around, rather than having to create one > myself. I have a problem to add a test file because my database is connected to a mysql database, so if I add the libreoffice file I'm using, it will be empty and looking for the mysql database. f.

Hmm, I've just been thinking that the feature you had before may just have been an unintended beneficial side-effect on the Mac of list box string presentation. String sorting of lists was changed during 3.4/3.5 to be more coherent, which might explain why you no longer get that "feature" in recent versions on OSX. I will have to check when I've got some free time. Alex Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDINFO status with no change for at least 6 months.

Alex Closing this issue for now. Important information is missing. No reply for over 5 months. If you still experience this problem, could you please try to: * test against the latest stable LO version (currently 4.1.3.2) http://libreoffice.org/download/ Should you still run into this problem, you can re-open this issue. |
