Description: Sometimes in Libreoffice Calc I use condition to compare range of cells in one field with respective range of cells in another field using 'Conditional' button on the toolbar. I highlight cells instead of writing a range manually. Let's say I use option 'Cell value is' in 'Conditional formatting'. I choose 'less than' option, put cursor on the right field, than I highlight cells. Range of cells with sheet name appears in the field like $'Sheet name'.$A$1:$A$10. After clicking OK sometimes compare process go wrong. For example, if A1 is 1 and B1 is 1, formatting shows that A1 is bigger than B1. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a sheet. 2. Fill range A1:A10 with some numbers. 3. Copy those numbers to range B1:B10 respectively. 4. Open 'Conditional' -> 'Manage'. 5. Click 'Add'. 6. Set 'Condition 1' as 'Cell value is'. 7. Set 'less than'. 8. Put cursor on the next field and highlight with cursor range of B1:B10. 9. Click 'Shrink' button at the left bottom corner. 10. Highlight range A1:A10. 11. Click OK. Actual Results: Number in one cell is highlighted as not equal to a number in respective cell in another field when two these numbers are actually equal. Expected Results: Numbers in respective cells should not be highlighted when they are equal and one use 'less than' condition. Reproducible: Sometimes User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 6.4.6.2 Build ID: 1:6.4.6-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 CPU threads: 24; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: ru-RU (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Not sure if it depends on if I compare a simple number and a function result or simple numbers. Possible workaround - remove sheet name (like $'Sheet name') in 'Conditional Formatting' in the right field. Example with a Calc sheet where I see such behavior is attached. Look at F and G fields. I've faced this bug when I work with LO versions 6.4.6.2 and 7.0.4.2.
Created attachment 168913 [details] test condition
confirm in Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 94f6765d6ecc3145fa2d266231124003cf953118 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.1 Service Pack 1 Build 7601; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU); UI: ru-RU Calc: CL and in 3.5.7.2, I think it inherrited from OOo
Created attachment 168927 [details] Sample modified with more test Seems the issue it's in relation with the use of the sheet name in the range to compare, behaving just the inverse it should be in the comparison, and comparing all with F2. Works fine without sheet name, column K
