Description Dan Dascalescu 2024-03-17 22:05:17 UTC 
1. Open a sheet with several conditional formatting rules.
2. Go to Format -> Conditional -> Manage
3. Edit a rule. Notice the position of the "Conditional formatting for..." range.
4. Click the mouse in the range box to make the position more obvious in the next step.
5. Press Enter to close the dialog.
6. Edit another rule.
7. Notice how the mouse is above the range box.
Comment 1 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2024-03-18 03:08:00 UTC 
No reproduced in:

Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 39663a323c3330c18b610fcdc9e9c75ddac770f1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded

Which operating system and VCL plugin?
Comment 2 Dan Dascalescu 2024-03-18 03:25:39 UTC 
Fedora Linux 38 KDE spin, kf5 (cairo+wayland)
Comment 3 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2024-03-18 04:51:03 UTC 
Interestingly, I can reproduce with kf5 (cairo+xcb) in a recent trunk build:

Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 39663a323c3330c18b610fcdc9e9c75ddac770f1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb)
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded

The dialog keeps moving down until it touches the display's edge.

But with kf5 (cairy+wayland) and gtk3, it only moves once to a different position to the one I set, but it stays there on subsequent opens.
Comment 4 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2024-03-18 05:41:51 UTC 
No need to go through the Manage dialog, can be seen by repeatedly doing right-click > Conditional Formatting.

Already reproduced in 6.4.0.3.

No repro for gen VCL plugin.

This might be the same as tdf#137471.

This might be Wayland not allowing to access and control screen positions/coordinates by design.
