More than that, if the user does manual search with formatting and later tries to run the macro (without formatting) the search will reuse formatting from manual search thus making macro search invalid. Steps to reproduce: 1. Record a simple search/replace macro, e.g. for regexp "[a-z]" 2. Try that it works 3. Do a manual search with formatting (e.g. language "Latin") 4. Rerun search/replace macro It would not find anything. Hi arysin, Recording macro's in OOo currently has it's limitations. I do not know exactly, but IIRC, in any case values added in extra windows are not recorded. Cor reassign ( no idea who looks after the recorder ), ->mba I guess you will know ;-) Enhancement Pls also see issue 79935! target ooolater |
When recording a macro for Find/Replace action, the Formatting is not stored. Steps to reproduce: 1. Press "Record Macro" 2. Open Find/Replace dialog 3. Enter some find and replace texts 4. Press "Format..." and change formatting, e.g. set Language to "English" 5. Do find/replace (all) 6. Press "stop macro" Observe the macro code: there's no reference to char fomatting ("English" language in our case), thus when calling this macro the find/replace will search for any formatting which is wrong. Expected: macro should preserve the formatting as well as text and other flags.
