Description Gerry 2013-01-11 16:41:40 UTC 
In the (really great) new conditional formatting feature in LibreOffice Calc 4.0Beta2, I encounter a reproducable bug which always results in a crash of LibreOffice:

How to reproduce:
1. Type or copy in any 20 cells of the spreadsheet following matrix:

1	2	3	4
2	3	4	5
3	4	5	6
4	5	6	7
5	6	7	8

2. select the cells of the matrix
2. Choose "Format" -> "Conditional Formatting" -> "Data bar" -> choose "Icon set" -> click "OK".
3. select the cells
4. hit "ctrl" + "c" to copy the matrix in the clipboard
5. Click "edit" -> "undo" as often until the spreadsheet is again empty
6. Choose "Edit" -> "Paste Special" and select the option "Numbers" and unselect the option "Formats".
7. Choose again "Format" -> "Conditional Formatting" -> "Data bar" -> choose "Icon set" -> click "OK".
8. In most cases, LibreOffice crashes now. If it does not crash, repeat steps 5, 6, and 7 once more to reproduce the crash.

System: Ubuntu 12.10, 64-bit, LibreOffice Version 4.0.0.0.beta2 (Build ID: 4104d660979c57e1160b5135634f732918460a0)

Thanks for reporting!

There are many changes made between LibreOffice 4.0 beta 2 and upcoming release candidate (RC1). This bug probably will be fixed. I can't reproduce using Mac OSX 10.8.2 and Linux/Bondhi with LibreOffice RC1. Can you please test retest with upcoming new RC1 (coming out in one of these next days)?

If this bug is still present in RC1, please feel free to REOPEN it; but for now (because of the MANY changes that are made) -> WORKSFORME.

Select area of numbers in Calc and make this area data bar formatted.
Now select this area again and press icon formatting, press yes in menu and in dropdown list select again icon formatting - CRASH

I can reproduce it on 5.0 beta1
Mint 17.1

On pc Debian x86-64 with LO Debian package 5.0.4.2, I don't reproduce this.
Could you give it a new try with last stable version?
