Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 114019
Status Bar appears when Drag and Drop Sheet-Tab
Last modified: 2014-03-18 14:34:45 UTC
I use Calc with the status bar turned off. Lately, when I click on a tab to move to it the spreadsheet will move up as if to make room for the status bar. More recently, the status bar has actually come up. This is very annoying. When only the space is made, I have to click on View>Status Bar to make the status bar appear. Then click it off to have everything go back into place. When the status bar appears, I keep having to turn it off. As far as I know there is nothing near the tabs that I could be accidentally clicking to cause the status bar to come on, or the spreadsheet to move as if to make room for it. If there is, it should be removed or have an option to turn it off.
Status bar reappears by simply dragging a column in a sheet. AOO410m1(Build:9750) - Rev. 1543812 Rev.1543812 Win 7
Version has been updated in error, so back to "3.3 or more early" Neither understand original report nor reproducible with server installation of "AOO 4.1.0-Beta – English UI / German locale - [AOO410m14(Build:9760) - Rev. 1577236 2014-03-15]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", own separate user profile: 1. From AOO Start center open new empty Calc document 2. Menu 'View -> Status Bar': Click to make invisible if necessary > Status Bar disappears below Sheet TABs 3. Click several sheet Tabs Due to report Status bar should reappear, but it does not 4. In Sheet1, Click column header "C" to select all column 5. Click on C1 and Drag and Drop to E1 Due to Comment 1 Status bar should appear, but it does not. @White Phoenix What means "click on a tab"? Sheet Tabs to switch from 1 sheet to an other?
Ah, I think I've got it. Steps how to reproduce with sever installation of "OOo 3.2.1 English UI / German locale [OOO320m18 (Build 9502)]" on WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) DE: 11. From AOO Start center open new empty Calc document 12. Menu 'View -> Status Bar': Click to make invisible > Status Bar disappears below Sheet TABs 13. Click on Sheet1-TAB -> drag & drop it between Sheet2-TAB and Sheet3-TAB Bug: Status Bar reappears :-) Additional Info: (a) Situation is a little different if you document opens without Status bar in Step 11. (a1) To reach that situation you have to disable Status bar in document, terminate Calc. Now when you open a blank new Calc document it will not show a Status bar (a2) If you now Proceed steps 11, then step 13 something like a placeholder for Status bar appears (as reported). (b) Edwin's observations might be a DUP of Bug 115770, I will check that later. (c) we have a very general "Bug 62456 - Calc statusbar does not stay hidden", this one might be related @White Phoenix No more info required
(d) Still Reproducible with server installation of "AOO 4.1.0-Beta – English UI / German locale - [AOO410m14(Build:9760) - Rev. 1577236 2014-03-15]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", own separate user profile. (e) Also a problem with LibO 4.2 (f) All details also reproducible with LibO 3.5.7.2 on VM / Ubuntu 12. So OS to ALL
for the sake of completeness: (g) was not a problem with OOo 1.1.5 (h) already reproducible with OOo 2.0.2
I now use AOO 4.01 for Linux. I have this problem on that platform also. Something else that I noticed that may help fix the problem. After the AutoRecovery does a scan, the bottom of the spreadsheet returns to its normal position. At least until the next time I move a sheet using the tab.
