Description: Bibliography entry can only be updated by entering a numeric value in the entry table: selecting a value from the type dropdown does not update the value. This was also reproduced on Windows 10 with 7.4.0 and an earlier version as well, maybe around 7.1? Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Writer 2. Open Tools -> Bibliography Database 3. Click on small + on bottom left of table to create new entry 4. Add a value to Short name field, tab out of it (value is updated in table) 5. Select 'Book' from Type dropdown, tab out of field after that Actual Results: Entry type in table (and the actual entry data) is empty Expected Results: Entry type in table (and the actual entry data) is changed to 'Book' Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Changing the value in the table (write 1 in the field and press enter) updates the dropdown as well, it seems to just be the dropdown selection that is broken. Selecting the value twice in the dropdown (i.e. first 'Article', then 'Book') seems to work around the issue. Version: 7.3.5.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 30(Build:2) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Ubuntu package version: 1:7.3.5-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 Calc: threaded
Step 4 is with the form components on the bottom, not in the table.
No repro in Windows. No repro GEN or KF5. Repro GTK3.
This is a somewhat similar problem to tdf#148197 in this case "Book" was last selected by a previous entry and "unselecting" it didn't return to the same state as an initial nothing-selected case
