Created attachment 44001 [details] Calc dialog Data->Filter->Standard Filter behaves in wrong way in Calc dialog Data->Filter->Standard Filter behaves in wrong way Users can aquire problem with it. Explanations in attachment used Libreoffice 3.3.1.2 Mandriva 64 and Windows XP 32
We may need to change the value of these special strings to avoid them starting by the "minus" sign. Here are the strings to hack: http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/calc/sc/source/ui/src/scstring.src#216 kohei, your advice on this easy hack would be great.
The right fix is when the auto select is showing a candidate value, we shouldn't treat it as the final value (hence changing the operator). Changing the value of '-not empty-' would only shift the problem elsewhere, it would not fix it.
Tibby Lickle has decided to tackle this bug, and fixed it in the following commit: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/calc/commit/?id=3f775efc94aca0fa96fc93e1ad9a08322558d370 The solution is to disable auto completion in this dialog, which in our opinion is totally redundant there (since there already is a drop-down list showing all possible selections).

Hello The chosen solution seems not good to me because: - Loss of an important feature (autocompletion) - Not homogeneous with the ergonomics (AFAIK no other case in LibO) - Auto completion is *not* redundant with the drop-down, especially when there is a lot of data. Enter the first characters of the searched value (word) is a very frequent use. cf. this Issue: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47412 The operator is no longer changed (when enter minus in value) : it would be good, please to restore autocompletion. Platform : version 3.6.0alpha0+ (Build ID: c2003c7) & Windows 7 64bits Regards Pierre-Yves
No, sorry.
