Description with screenshots for this bug

Open the attached *.pdf-document. Will show how to get the right dialogue for this bug.

Open a database.
Open a table for editing.
Open the index design.

Here you could create new indexes for fields of the table.
With LO 5.1.5.2 (and earlier versions) you could choose fields for the index and the sorting order for the index.
With LO 6.1.4.2 and LO 6.2.0.1 you could only choose fields. There is a scrollbar at the bottom, but it scrolls to nowhere ... The dialogue couldn't be resized to get the index-sorting. Seems it has been gone by changing the GUI here.

Comment 2 Julien Nabet 2019-01-08 08:08:57 UTC
Thank you Xisco for adding me to cc.
I'll try to find some time to reproduce this.

Lionel: just wondering if we should just put AddIndexAppendix https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/connectivity/registry/hsqldb/org/openoffice/Office/DataAccess/Drivers.xcu to "true".

If we're looking at the  present situation:
- odbc: true
- dbase: false
- jdbc:
   pure jdbc: true
   Oracle jdbc: false
- hsqldb (properties and features): false
- Mysql:
  - native: true
  - jdbc: true
  - odbc: true
Comment 3 Julien Nabet 2019-05-21 20:30:19 UTC
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce this.

I submitted a patch to gerrit here:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/72701/

It concerns only hsqldb.

About Firebird, I don't reproduce this.
I noticed there's no AddIndexAppendix quotation in Drivers.xcu from Firebird part, see https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/connectivity/registry/firebird/org/openoffice/Office/DataAccess/Drivers.xcu?r=9b6906bb

For 6.2 branch, the patch has been submitted on gerrit, see https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/72777/.

The patch concerns only hsqldb. If there's a regression for another type of DB, I'll be able to submit patch with "Related to..."
