Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 54819
Horizontal scrollbar stops paging across when cell is more than twice paging width
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:13:19 UTC
The horizontal scrollbar stops paging across (clicking in the scrollbar gutter) when a cell is more than two pages wide. 1. Download the example csv file from: http://www.agitate.org.uk/download/report.csv and open it in the OO Spreadsheet application. 2. Click in the gutter to scroll to the right. Note that the second column is very wide because of the very long contents and the application will not scroll once it hits that cell, either right or left. Using the arrow buttons on the scrollbar does allow you to scroll still. You can stop the application from producing this behaviour by shrinking the very large second column so that it is less than twice the width of the applications window (or spreadsheet area of the window). Resizing the big column can be difficult, so if you right mouse click on the column header and select optimal width, it is easier.
I don't find this problem with OOo2.0RC1 on WinXP SP2. However I find that the scrollbar slider changes it's size. (Is this a bug or intended?) It is small if column 1 or 2 (the big one) are the leftmost ones and much larger when I scroll further to the right. My interpretation is that this behaviour might be dependent on the window manager (or OS in this case). So someone with Linux should check this there.
I can confirm this behaviour in m130 on Linux.Setting oooqa keyword Alex
Hi Niklas, please have a look at this one. Windows works well Linux stops working, click on the the direction arrows on the scrollbar works as well as the cursor keys. Frank
