Description bruce 2019-04-07 14:40:48 UTC
Description:
Calc allowed "live" editing a formula with content from tabs other than the edited cell's tab by navigating to them and selecting cells. Versions 6.1.5.2 and 6.2.2 appear to stop the cell edit as soon as another tab is selected. True with in-cell editing and without, with slight difference.

Steps to Reproduce:
In-Cell Edit
1. select an empty cell
2. type "="
3. select another tab
4. select a non-blank cell
5. hit "Enter"
6. go to original tab and cell
7. see nothing but an "="

Edit in Formula Bar
1. select an empty cell
2. type "=" in formula bar
3. select another tab
4. select a non-blank cell
4x. see step 4's cell ID added to formula bar
5. hit "Enter"
6. go to original tab and cell
7. see nothing in it

Actual Results:
Ended with invalid or empty formula iin version 6.1.5.2 and 6.2.2.2

Expected Results:
Previous versions would allow completion of a formula with selections from other tabs


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes
