Comment 7 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-09-19 08:46:13 UTC
Same in recent master build:

Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: b3fdd999f87312447d03915585812b3a5cd48141
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

But what would be a preferred behaviour? An error message? Nothing? -> asking for UX/Design team opinion.

Just noting that currently, regarding hidden sheet behaviour, we have:
- Using "Sheet > Navigate > Go to sheet..." does not list the hidden sheet.
- Ctrl + Page Down / Page Up bypasses the hidden sheet too.
- "Edit > Select > Select to next / previous sheet" jumps over the hidden sheet.

Only way to show the sheet again is to use the Show Sheet dialog.
Comment 8 Heiko Tietze 2023-09-19 09:00:22 UTC
I would show the sheet and switch rather than some modification on the hyperlink to make it look like disabled or to interrupt the workflow with a message box (or less obtrusive an infobar which could OTOH provide means to show/activate the target anyway).
