Description: This is a minor problem: I have a form with several columns. When I want to filter the data according to a specific value of a column I click into this column and the window of the filter navigator pops up. I select the value from a drop-down list. This works fine. When I want to filter again with another value the window of the navigator does not show up, but filtering works fine. When filtering with another value everything works as expected, the filter navigator appears again and so on. This behavior exists since release 6.x. I do not remember the exact version. Btw, the position of the window cannot be changed since version 7.1.5. It is positioned always on the left side of the screen. When I move it to another place, it shows up on the left side again when I call the filter again. Steps to Reproduce: 1. see Description 2. 3. Actual Results: The filter navigator shows up every second filter action Expected Results: The filter navigator shows up every time and the window remembers its last position Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.1.5.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 85f04e9f809797b8199d13c421bd8a2b025d52b5 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.3 Build 9600; UI render: default; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: de-DE Calc: CL
With version 7.3.2.2 the problem is worse than before. Now, the navigator window does not open, only the top of the window is visible. One has to enlarge the window by clicking on the border line and pull it down.
Have tried to understand what you are doing, but can't find the filter navigator. You open a form in Base. You click into a field (column). …and then? The field is marked, I could copy the content, but how do you get a "filter navigator" here? I don't see anything pop up in LO 6.4.7.2 and also LO 7.3.2.2 on OpenSUSE 15.3 64bit rpm Linux. Could you show it with a screenshot and attach it to this bug?

Hello Robert, I click into the form. Then I click on the icon 'form based filter (Formularbasierter Filter (Strg+Umschalt+L) in German). The the window of the Filternavigator pops up, but it is minimized. In previous versions: - it showed up enlarged. - I could fix its position and size by shifting the window to the desired place on the monitor screen and setting its size - the window showed up every time when I clicked the icon. Now it appears every second time only. Greetings Hans
I'm missing some steps to show a buggy behavior here: 1. Open a form in Base. 2. Click on "Form-Based Filters". 3. "Filter navigator" appears. 4. Form is ready for input something in a field. 5. Press "Apply Form-Based Filter". 6. Filtered rows will appear, "Filter navigator" will disappear. 7. Click on "Form-Based Filters". 8. "Filter navigator" won't appear. → Bug 9. Press "Apply Form-Based Filter". 10. Click on "Form-Based Filters". 11. "Filter navigator" appears. The "Filter navigator" seems to be deactivated every second time. You have to press "Filter Navigation" to get the filter. This buggy behavior appears since LO 7.0.0.3 on OpenSUSE 15.3 64bit rpm Linux. Works well in LO 6.4.7.2 on the same system. @Hans Zeki: Please report another bug for the "Filter navigator", which is minimized in Windows since LO 7.3.2.2. I couldn't reproduce it here. Test it with a clean user profile before.

Created attachment 183794 [details] Open the form. Press Formbased Filter, apply, press Foirmbased Filter again Filter navigator will be shown first time - but very small in LO 7.4.3.2 … Apply filter and press "Formbased Filter" again. No Navigator will be shown.
