Form wizard works with TDF LibreOffice Version: 7.2.5.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 499f9727c189e6ef3471021d6132d4c694f357e5 CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 12.1; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded
Also works correctly with LibreOffice for Mac ARM Version: 7.3.0.1 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 840fe2f57ae5ad80d62bfa6e25550cb10ddabd1d CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 12.1; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded

It's the same version as in description. Is the step 1 in description necessary, especially Firebird ODB, to reproduce the bug? Status has been set to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested information has been provided. Best regards. JBF
Have just tested again. Still reproducible with LibreOffice Vanilla Version: 7.2.5.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 499f9727c189e6ef3471021d6132d4c694f357e5 CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 12.2.1; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded cf. attached screen capture video

Note reproducible for me with Version: 7.3.4.0.0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 7f989417a1f16b6db6b9b0fbc6bb6ffd7a81bb1c CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.13; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Ubuntu_20.04_x86-64 Calc: threaded nor with Version: 7.2.8.0.0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ffa09959edd087794b1f2fe6b9b6faac484ef74b CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.13; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Ubuntu_20.04_x86-64 Calc: threaded In the last case (LO 7.2.8.0.0+) form wizard starting fails with an error message about JRE missing because LO 7.2.8 is not installed. Anyway, that shows that something starts when clicking on Create Form with Wizard Best regards. JBF
This bug only affects LibreOffice Vanilla (or "Community" as it is called in the version information) and Collabora Office, as released through the macOS AppStore. It does not affect LibreOffice Community released by TDF, as mentioned in comment 2.
If the Form Wizard relies in any way on Java, that would be an explanation why it doesn't work, as Collabora does not support Java integration in their product releases.

Will work with Version: 22.05.5.20220901 Build ID: 12d0317070bce527e64980aa5596d1a284544fd1 CPU threads: 6; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded of Collabora Office here. Java also has been included. Special Mac-bug?
(In reply to Robert Großkopf from comment #11) > (In reply to Alex Thurgood from comment #10) > of Collabora Office here. Java also has been included. Special Mac-bug? Yes, Collabora don't include any Java support in the macOS Appstore release.
Updated to also include LibreOffice now available from appstore: Version: 7.3.6.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: c28ca90fd6e1a19e189fc16c05f8f8924961e12e CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 12.6; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded
Reproduced with appstore version: Version: 7.3.6.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: c28ca90fd6e1a19e189fc16c05f8f8924961e12e CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 12.6; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded
It is a reflection of a rather sad state of affairs to notice that this bug was opened 11 months ago and still hasn't been confirmed for macOS.
This is still not working in LibreOffice from the Apple app store : Version: 7.4.6.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 5b1f5509c2decdade7fda905e3e1429a67acd63d CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded However, it does work correctly in the LibreOffice app bundle available from the project download page: Version: 7.4.5.1 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 9c0871452b3918c1019dde9bfac75448afc4b57f CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded
The reason it doesn't work in the LibreOffice bundle from the macOS Apple Store is probably because everything in: /core/tree/master/wizards/com/sun/star/wizards/form/ appears to be Java code, and this can not be executed in the app store version as JVM support has been removed.
So how high in importance should a bug be set which does nothing when the relevant button is pressed, and which forms the basis of one of the major helper functions for users in a product that is pushed through the app store ?
