Description Jeff Fortin Tam 2024-10-26 19:53:26 UTC 
1. Open Calc
2. Ctrl+V the contents of a CSV file (or ask Calc to open a .csv file)
3. Change the "From row:" field in that dialog from 1 to 2 (or more). Notice the very thin blue separator line below that row (not obvious enough, but I'll file a related bug about that).
4. OK or Cancel that dialog
5. Repeat step 2


Actual Result:

The "From row:" field is already set to the previous value, but the divider indicator line is not set / does not match.


Expected result:

Either it should not reuse the previous value of the field, and always default to "1" to avoid mistakes (which is what I would probably recommend), or at least the visual indicator should match the state of that field upon dialog creation.
