Description stragu 2024-04-19 11:06:36 UTC
(Bug 121032 is the same issue but for Fontwork)

Steps:
1. Open Writer or Calc
2. Insert a shape
3. Insert an image
4. Insert a chart
5. Insert a formula
6. Insert a text box
7. Insert a QR/barcode

Result: in step 2 to 6, objects are always inserted above everything else.
In step 7, QR/Barcode is inserted below everything.

Expected: fontwork should be inserted at the top of z order.

Not reproduced in Draw / Impress.

Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: bdf3b5ce49b0e4ee1b4525d344cfb037ef473059
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3

Already the case in:

Version: 6.4.0.3
Build ID: b0a288ab3d2d4774cb44b62f04d5d28733ac6df8
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3

So assumed implementationError.

Dear Stéphane Guillou (stragu),

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
