Description mrelwood 2015-11-28 00:28:14 UTC
If one Conditional Formatting rule is removed, and then another rule opened for editing, the removed rule is back when the editor window is closed.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create two conditions in a LibreOffice Spreadsheet (Format > Conditional Formatting > Manage...).
2. Select one condition in the Manager, and click "Remove".
3. Double-click (or select and click "Edit...") the remaining condition. 
4. Just click "OK" or "Cancel" to close the opened editing window.

The first condition that was removed, has now magically raised from the dead. For removed rules to remain dead, the Manager window must be closed and reopened before editing the other rule.

The attached spreadsheet is just a simple one with two conditions.

This issue is not huge by itself, but as the Conditional Formatting range splitting bug requires constant housekeeping, this issue gets annoying pretty fast.

Doesn't seems like a bug (read: works as expected). Unless you click 'OK' (in the main window) after removing, the conditional formatting should still be there.
Comment 3 Alex Thurgood 2015-11-30 08:43:03 UTC
Works as designed. As MM has mentioned, you need to approve the deletion via OK for it to be taken into account.
Comment 4 mrelwood 2015-11-30 18:29:55 UTC
That is surprising. The current behavior is unexpected. Since other Conditional Formatting edits (or edits anywhere else for that matter) do not disappear when clicking "OK", I will make a feature request to change the behavior.
