Reporter's observations are REPRODUCIBLE with reporter's sample document and STR Installation of Version 7.2.3.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Build d166454616c1632304285822f9c83ce2e660fd92; CPU threads: 12; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19042; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win; Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: de-DE; Calc: threaded; Elementary Theme; My normal User Profile But I'm not sure what might be bug and what might be intended feature ... The behavior also depends on cursor position. I tried with reporter's document and added a step 1.1 to his STR: 11) Open either sidebar ctrl+F5 or floating F5 Navigator 11.1) press key <ArrowDown> » Caret flashes left from "1) ..." 12) Double click on Shape 1 13) Press Tab key » Shape selection switches to Shape 2, more <TAB> always will switch selection between shapes Let's try something else 21) Open either sidebar ctrl+F5 or floating F5 Navigator 21.1) Click left from "Heading 1" » Caret flashes left from "Heading 1" 22) Double click on Shape 1 23) Press Tab key » nothing happens I also managed to get "Heading 1" through many formattings with each <TAB>, but I can't remember the conditions how I did. Do we have some help text telling what the expected behavior should be?
Already REPRODUCIBLE with Server Installation of Version: 4.0.0.3 WIN10 Build-ID 7545bee9c2a0782548772a21bc84a9dcc583b89; Special devUserProfile
Looking at this again I see my STR need clarification. One could take step two to mean double click on 'Shape 1' in the document. If that is done before the steps to repro, the bug does not occur. Steps to repro using the attached 'test file with repro steps' file: 1) Open either sidebar ctrl+F5 or floating F5 Navigator 2) In the Navigator expand the Drawing objects category, if needed, then double click on the 'Shape 1' entry in the list of drawing objects. Shape 1 in the document is selected 3) Press Tab key Results: A tab space is applied before all headings in the document Expected result: Selected drawing object in the document changes to Shape 2.
The behaviour changed in 7.4 with https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/ba2c5e05319181aa00357d66ba2fbaba20231bd3 Resolves tdf#146762 - Consistency for list indent and level shortcuts Now there is no indentation, but no focus change either. If I double-click a second time, the focus change starts working.
