Description rosma 2019-05-03 14:40:27 UTC
Description:
With the sheet protection turned off, selecting a group which contains both protected and unprotected cells, then trying to use Format Cells - Cell Protection to either change all cells to the protected or unprotected state does not work.

The Protected box in the Cell Protection menu is fixed as a horizontal dash, in earlier versions of LibreOffice this could be toggled between ticked and cleared so all cells were changed to the same protection state.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Tools and untick Protect Sheet...
2. Select some cells which have been protected and some which are unprotected.
3. Select Format Cells.. and then Cell Protection.
4. Click on the Protected box.

Actual Results:
The Protected box shows a fixed horizontal dash (-). This does not change if you keep clicking on it.

Expected Results:
When you repeatedly click on the Protected box this cycles through a clear state (all cells unprotected), a dash (some cells in both states) and a ticked state (all cells protected).


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
All of the boxes - Hide All, Protected, Hide formula and Hide when printing - show the same problem.

Earliest release version with the problem is

This cell protection problem is confirmed as fixed in the two versions shown below.

Thanks for your efforts in resolving this, I would have reported the fix earlier but Linux daily builds stopped updating after 4 May. The 6.2.5 build updated last night and the 6.3.0 is from a link on the LibreOffice QA blog.
