To Reproduce: 1. Change Windows system language to Hebrew, so that Add Sheets creates RTL sheets. 2. File -> New -> Spreadsheet. Sheet will be RTL. Click plus sign at bottom to add sheet. 3. While still in Sheet2, select a cell. 4. Ctrl+Alt+C to add a comment. Expected Behavior: Yellow pop-up window to add comment. Actual Behavior: Yellow pop-up window is off screen. Only appears on second or higher sheet. Only appears on sheets that are created as RTL, not LTR sheets that are later changed to RTL. Bug disappears when RTL sheet is changed to LTR, then back to RTL.
Can you attach a screenshot of this happening?
Also, which version of LibreOffice are you running?
Created attachment 183245 [details] we see yellow comment window this is regular behavior.
Created attachment 183246 [details] here no yellow window appears this is in second sheet, when sheet is right to left
I am using LO 7.4.2.3 build 382eef1f22670f7f4118c8c2dd222ec7ad009daf Windows 10 x64. Bug is alive and well. No yellow comment window. I don't know why i said it was off screen - i just don't see it at all. To see the bug, make sure you set tools -> options -> language settings -> languages -> locale setting -> עברית / Hebrew. Then restart LO to see sheet in RTL. Follow steps above - the bug only appears on second or higher sheet. Could someone check Arabic? i can't because i'd get lost in the menus.
Step 1 can be Tools - Options - Language Settings - Languages - Locale setting: Hebrew For me, the comment is invisible while writing, but does show when hovering over the indicator. Same on Win and Linux. Tested with Linux all the way to 3.5.0. As this does not require an RTL UI, I will change one of the meta bugs.
