Description Ashe 2022-07-16 17:27:14 UTC
Description:
I've tried several workaround to be able to freeze rows AND columns at the same time, as well as be able to edit them, and have met with failure. Attempting to freeze a Row after freezing a column results in the initial freeze failing and leaves nothing frozen as a result.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select Column C.
2. Right-Click on Column C Header.
3. Select Freeze Rows and Columns.
4. Should now be frozen UP TO Row B.
5. Select Row 4.
6. Right Click Row 4.
7. Select Freeze Rows and Columns.
8. Column freeze disables, and there is now no frozen area.

Actual Results:
The initial freeze fails, leaving nothing at all frozen.

Expected Results:
I expected for both Up To Column B AND Row 3 to be frozen simultaneously.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

If I import files in xlsx format, they will maintain the frozen rows AND columns unless I try to add or delete a row or column. Neither attempting to add or delete a row or column results in any change. I am able to edit those rows or columns which are ALREADY present in the xlsx file without losing the frozen aspect of rows and columns.
