Description Petri H 2022-11-21 15:55:59 UTC
Created attachment 183702 [details]
Afterwards added label field indexing error

After successfull File->New->Labels wizard walkthrough, any afterwards added data source fields in Writer are not printed correctly. 

In attached screen shot I have presented spreadsheet data source where I have set content on relevant cells using naming 1x2 (row x column) principle. Label fields, which were added during file->new->labels wizard walkthrough, are printed with correct content. The same label shows incorrect content if field was added afterwards in Writer. 

Afterwards added fields seems to be in an offset, like indexing 0 or 1 bug. This bug is very annoying if you didn't (remember) select all fields correctly in the start and want to do some changes in your label.

How to reproduce:
1. Make sure you have a spreadsheet linked to a database created in base.
2. Walk through File->New->Labels wizard pointing to some database fields by selecting those fields
3. In Writer, add some fields pointing to e.g. the same database cells
4. Print to any printer

Dear Petri H,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
