Description Manfred Spraul 2023-06-04 14:45:25 UTC
Description:
When using the "clone" feature with double-click to transfer for formatting to other cells, the mouse pointer is invisible when the mouse is in the data area.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open libreoffice calc
2. create empty sheet
3. Select a cell
4. Move the mouse pointer to the ribbon bar and double click on "clone"
5. Move the mouse back to the data area

Actual Results:
The mouse pointer becomes invisible when it enters the data area

Expected Results:
The mouse pointer should have changed to the "clone" appearance


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
When moving the mouse pointer out of the data area, e.g. back to the ribbon bar, the mouse pointer reappears.
Other appearance changes of the mouse pointer work (tested: changing the width of column A, by going with the mouse pointer to the line between A and B)
If you aim blindly to a cell, then the clone feature itself works flawlessly. 

The issue was first noticed after switching to Wayland. I'm using Wayland with KDE.

Configuration from libreoffice:
Version: 7.4.6.2
Build ID: 40(Build:2)
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.2; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+wayland)
Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded
Comment 1 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-06-07 13:50:55 UTC
Thank you for the report!

I can reproduce with 7.4.7.2 with kf5 (cairo+wayland),

But not reproduced with 7.5.3 with same kf5 (cairo+wayland).

It was fixed in LO 7.5 by Michael Weghorn's commit 091f56e50748e3fd807b9bae88652b68834aac3a, a fix for bug 153333 (I verified with the linux-64-7.5 bibisect repo).
So I am marking this report as a duplicate.

Please update to LO 7.5 as 7.4 won't see further releases.
