Description sasha.libreoffice 2011-03-16 07:30:38 UTC
Created attachment 44501 [details]
document with formula and drawing object square and circle grouped together

To reproduce problem create document with formula and drawing object square and circle grouped together. This document is in attachment.

To reproduce this problem with selecting (after each click wait 2 sec):

on Linux: place cursor in text, then select square, press Ctrl and click inside square. Formula will be selected 

on Windows: place cursor in text, then select square, press Ctrl and click circle inside square. Formula will be selected 


I found this problem while trying to select drawing object inside of group. To select something inside of group we should press Ctrl and click desired object.

When formula selects in this example, it not want unselect by pressing inside the text.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:

ZIP containing two ODTs, each with a series of objects (raster, formula, drawn) inserted.

Just an update on this bug. The order of insertion of the formula or graphic (raster) appears to affect which object is subsequently selected when attempting to select two drawn (frame/vector) objects. The two attached ODTs differ only in the order that the formula and graphic (PNG) have been inserted. In each file there is a pair of drawn objects before and after the formula and PNG. 

Under Crunchbang 11 x86_64 running v4.1.3.2 regardless of which two drawn objects are selected it appears to be the formula or graphic that is *first* inserted that is selected. For example, if a formula is the first non-drawn object inserted, then attempting to select any other two drawn objects will result in the formula being selected. If a graphic is the first non-drawn object inserted, then attempting to select any other two drawn objects will result in the graphic being selected.

** Please read this message in its entirety before responding **

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 on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (4.4.1 or later)
   https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

   *If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior
 
   *If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System

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)

http://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
