Description daniel.schaaaf 2012-03-20 02:56:32 UTC
Bug in version 3.5.2RC0+ and earlier
Difficult to describe in only a few words ...

1) Enter some text into cell A2 that is (much) wider than the cell itself and align it centered.

2) Double click A2 to edit text

3) Click onto right part of text that overlaps with cell A3 => cursor will be in text at mouse position

4) Click onto left part of text that overlaps with cell A1 => cursor will be in cell A1 instead of the text in cell A2!


[   A1   ][   A2   ][   A3   ]
[    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX    ]
      ^                ^

[Reproducible] with "LibreOffice 3.5.1.2 German UI/Locale [Build-ID: dc9775d-05ecbee-0851ad3-1586698-727bf66] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)   and
[Reproducible] with all former LibO versions
and
[Reproducible] with OOo 3.1

So OOo heritage, see a.m. AOOo Bugzilla link!

In OOo 1.1.4 text never exceeded left cell border, so this problem could not appear.

Comment 4 daniel.schaaaf 2016-01-17 20:57:35 UTC
Bug still present without changes in LO v5.0.4.2 on Windows Server 2012 R2 (Windows 8.1)

My original report was a little misleading. Instead of A1, A2 and A3, think A, B and C.

The bug is not present any more in 24.2.3.2 x86 or 24.2.5.2 x64.

The mouse cursor does not change into a text cursor when hovering over the left cell (A1 in my and Andy's example), but upon clicking onto the text overlapping A1, the a text cursor does get inserted at the correct text position instead of selecting cell A1.
