Description Vladislav 2021-08-31 11:09:34 UTC 
Description:
In 7.1.5 AutoInput works fine, bun in 7.2.0 it was broken.

Steps to Reproduce:
We create an empty table.
In cell A1 we enter asd, in cell A2 we enter asdf, in cell A3 we enter asdfg.


Actual Results:
When entering asd into cell A4 characters should automatically be substituted by asdf, and by pressing Ctrl+Tab should be substituted by asdfg. But it either doesn't happen at all, or it works until the first time the spreadsheet file is saved.

Expected Results:
-


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

It was an intentional change, but flew under the radar of the UX team. Further discussion is happening in bug 142214

Note that for me, Ctrl+Tabbing works fine, but the first keypress does not yet offer anything. The second and third presses then offer asdf and asdfg.

Note that although bug 143960 is marked as NOTABUG, the relevant change has been reverted in both master and 7.2 branch, and the upcoming 7.2.1 release will no longer have this issue.
