Description david.cortes.rivera 2019-10-27 12:10:48 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
* Create some merged cell from two or more rows.
* Write some word in the merged cell starting with a capital letter, add a line break (ctrl + enter), and write another word starting with a small letter.
* Press enter to be done with editing the cell (which now contains two lines).
* After noticing that the second word got its first letter auto-converted to capital, try to edit the cell again and switch it back to small letter.

Expected behavior: should allow starting the second word with a non-capitalized letter.

Actual behavior: first letter of the second word is still auto-capitalized, and now first letter of the first word cannot be set to small letter either.

In the STR from comment 0, merging cells is optional; just a possible convenience.

The Autocorrect option to "Capitalize first letter of every sentence" is in use, AND using "undo" [CTRL]+[Z] immediately after [ENTER] seems to be ignored.

The "undo" works if we introduce a space character (or any other word-ending character) at the end of the Autocorrect action (and before pressing [ENTER]), but not if the "sentence" (or rather, line of text) ends with a simple word string.

The "undo" action is registered - there is a new "redo" action available - but the Autocorrect is not actually "undone".

Dear david.cortes.rivera,

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
