Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 48140
dragging chapters in navigator misbehaves
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:22:04 UTC
In the attached document, Writer doesn't correctly do the chapter dragging in the navigator. 1. Open the attached document. It has been censored (I hope), but I put numbers in the headings for easy identification. 2. Open the navigator. Make it display the headings, ready to drag a chapter from one place to another. 3.a. Drag number 8, and drop it between 6 and 7. It moves 9 also. It ends up being 6, 8, 9, and 7. Notice how subchapters of 9 didn't move along with 9. They ended up under 7, after 7's subchapters. 3.b. Drag 7 between 6 and 8 to put it back where it belongs: it ends up 6, 7 (with 7's and 9's), 10 (without its subchapters), 8, 9 (with 10's). 4.a. Drag 4 between 2 and 3: again 2, 4, 5, 3. 4.b. Drag 4 between 5 and 6: it ends up 4, 5, 3, 6. 5.a. Drag 15 to the end, it takes 16 with it also. Promote chapter and demote chapter buttons are misbehaving too. It's all messed up.
Created attachment 25450 [details] Document with lots of tables where dragging in navigator misbehaves.
MRU->OS: As described, the move of chapter via Navigator will move more than expected. E.g. when moving Chapter 8, Chapter 9 will also be moved.
->MRU: What makes this issue relevant for OOo 2.01? This is a common problem of the Writer that selections of text with tables at the beginning or end cannot be created. The basis to move a chapter/subchapter is a selection. Target changed to OOo Later
Does it mean it won't be fixed? Do I need to file a bug about "Writer can't create selections with a table at the beginning or end"?
No, this means it will be fixed for successor of OO2.
