Description ThomasU 2020-06-27 15:13:12 UTC
Description:
In a split window situation, say the split line is over a cell in first column in the left pane, if you select a cell in the left pane then the cells in the right pane will jump away towards the right to display the first column. This will not happen if the split line does not overlap a cell in the first column.
This is inconvenient if the first column is relatively wide and one has arranged a relatively narrow LibreOffice window to have side-by-side view with, say, a Writer document window on the same screen. See attached video.
Tested on 7.0.0.0 beta1 and beta2.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Split window in 2 columns
2. Slide split line partly over first column
3. Select a cell far enough right in the right pane so that it causes the horizontal scroll bar to scroll out
4. Select cell in left pane, first column

Actual Results:
Cells in right pane jump right

Expected Results:
No jumping


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Dear ThomasU,

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
