Screencast Showing Auto Filter Popup Without Any Function

There seems to be a major functionality regression in LibreOffice 7.2.1.2, module Calc:

Version: 7.2.1.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 20(Build:2)
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.11; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb)
Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: de-DE
Ubuntu package version: 1:7.2.1~rc2-0ubuntu0.20.04.1~lo3
Calc: threaded



The auto filter popup seems to be without any function. Trying to click anything in it just closes/dismisses the popup again without invoking any action.

See the attached screen recording for a demonstration. Seems to be reliably reproducible anytime with any sheet.

This seems to render auto filters completely useless in this version.



Desktop is KDE 5 with kwin / X11.

Example Document - try the auto filter.

Ok, I attached a newly created example document - actually, no specific document is necessary.

Every spreadsheet with auto filters exhibits the problem, the autofilters are unsuable.

After latest system updates, the problem resolved itself.

Not sure if a new build of LibreOffice or an update to KDE - or simply the reboot itself after the update - fixed the issue, but this seems to have been a "false positive".
