Description Heiko Tietze 2019-10-05 07:28:39 UTC
Enable field shading (ctrl+F8), add a comment and enter a hyperlink, switch field shading off - the background remains in the comment until the content is edited.

Follow-up to bug 127833
Comment 1 Dieter 2019-10-10 06:41:56 UTC
I confirm that field shading remains

Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64)
Build ID: 460908269972fd1f89312a1e62897ed1503e9e98
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2019-09-30_09:18:03
Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded
Comment 2 Xisco Faulí 2019-10-23 15:01:13 UTC
Also reproduced in

LibreOffice 3.3.0 
OOO330m19 (Build:6)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4
Comment 3 Dieter 2021-09-07 06:32:12 UTC
I couldn't reproduce with

Version: 7.3.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 74d35e143d557a7e65c4443f5b80cb9d406b1fa1
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19043; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB
Calc: CL

because there is no field shading when adding a hyperlink and I can't add a field to a comment.
Comment 4 Heiko Tietze 2021-09-07 06:52:35 UTC
Add a comment, enter www.libreoffice.org, and press space or enter. It becomes highlighted depending on whether field shading is on/off - and never switches this highlighting on/off later.

Version: 7.3.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community

Yes, still present. I've tested with Insert => Hyperlink and there in no shading at all.

Dear Heiko Tietze,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
