Description Martin Srdoš 2020-11-29 19:42:48 UTC
Description:
When I am editing formula in cell (for example =A2-A1), I see the selected cells (the A1 and A2) only until I start write.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type for example "12" into cell A1, "23" into cell A2 and "=A2-A1" to cell A3.
2. Navigate to cell A3 and press F2 (for editing). You can see, the cells A1 and A2 are labled by red and blue color.
3. Start to edit cell A3 and you can see that the cell labels disappear.

Actual Results:
Labels of the cells are gone when I start to edit the cell.

Expected Results:
Visibility of the labels in all time of editing.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Seems like intentional design but I'll leave that for someone higher up in the hierarchy to decide.

Hi, this bug is still present in

Version: 7.5.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: ca8fe7424262805f223b9a2334bc7181abbcbf5e
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: en-AU (fr_FR); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

But like neuffbn said I'm not sure if it's intentional design or not.
