Description sirollihamalainen 2014-04-29 18:47:01 UTC

Three stages of the bug: beginning, copy-paste and backspace

If you try to merge two cells in to one, you may encounter little problem: After pasting the one's data after another's to the command line, the "cursor" jumps one step too far to the right (and leaves an "empty" space after pasted data). However if you use backspace to erase this one, you'll end up erasing the last character of actual data, even while it seems right on the command line. If you hit enter straight after the loss is permanent, but while making screenshots Calc somehow fixed the bug by itself few times.

PS. I'm sorry if I mixed up some terms, but I use finnish version of LibreOffice, and couldn't easily verify if I got them right. Check the screenshots.

Sorry, but I mixed few things while trying to post this out (first time):
Now the screenshot is on PNG-format. In description I said "merge", but I didn't mean the actual merge-tool, but just copying the data of a cell to another cell which has data already.

Tested this out on my laptop which runs 32bit Win 7 Starter. Got exactly same behaviour as on my desktop with 64bit Linux Mint, so I changed this to affect all platforms. Also changed component to "spreadsheet" as it should be.
