Description William Friedman 2023-06-23 18:26:25 UTC
Description:
If one changes the formatting of list numbers using direct formatting, and then does undo, it does not undo the changes.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new document.
2. Toggle ordered list (F12 or press the GUI button).
3. Press the left arrow or click near the number so that it is surrounded by a gray background box.
4. Bold the text (Ctrl-B or use the GUI button).
5. Undo. The text remains bolded.
6. Unbold the text (Ctrl-B or use the GUI button).
7. Undo. The text is now bolded again.

Actual Results:
The first undo does not undo the attribute change. The second undo does undo the attribute change.

Expected Results:
The first undo should undo the attribute change.


Reproducible: Always

Dear William Friedman,

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


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
