Screenshot of the problem in Calc

When there is an autofilter set by color and the user wants to re-run the filter for the same color (after changing some items color, so to hide them), it is inconvenient to do: 
one has to open the autofilter for the column, select Text/background color and uncheck the current color. 
Then reopen the autofilter for the column, select Text/background color and check the previously used color. 
With number/text filtering it is enough to open the autofilter and push OK to re-run the filter.
But with color filters the OK button is greyed out as if there were no condition defined yet.

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open attachment 173243 [details] from bug 143104
    2. The column B is filtered for blue text, the first three rows has that. 
    3. Change the text color in B3
    4. Try to re-run the filtering on column B

Actual results:
The autofilters OK button is greyed out so re-running the filtering is cumbersome as above.

Expected results:
The autofilters OK button can be pressed and it would hide the row 3 which has now no blue colored font in B3.

Confirmed.
OK Button should be enabled in that case.

Dear Gabor Kelemen (allotropia),

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
