How can you mark this as "resolved" if I still have the issue?
Would you like a screen video recording to prove that it does not work?
Comment 3 rjb 2018-07-26 23:38:57 UTC 
Make sure you understand that this happens only in the CALC app of LibreOffice and not the others.

Thank you for reporting the bug. To be certain the reported issue is not
related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your
Libreoffice profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ) and
re-test?

I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present

1. Restarted LibreOffice in "Safe Mode" and upon opening "Calc" and pressing "Command+F" the Find search box shows on the bottom left status bar.

2. Restarting in regular mode, the "Find" command no longer works.

3. Restarted LibreOffice in "Safe Mode" again and this time chose "Disable Hardware Acceleration". The "Find" command no longer works.

4. Restarted LibreOffice in "Safe Mode" again and this time chose "Reset User Profile". Upon restart the "Find" command now works.

I would like to know what in the user profile was causing this odd behavior.

For some unkown reason, the user profile sometimes gets corrupted...
Closing as RESOLVED NOTABUG
