Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 79531
chart2: failed range verification in range dialogs should not disable controls
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:19:33 UTC
With the fix for issue 79013 in sw it became apparent that the 4 controls of the range dialog should not be disabled if the range check fails. The reason for this is that just a change of e.g. the source direction from cols to rows may result in the same data range being acceptable now. Currently it is not able to change any of the 4 controls if the range was found invalid. For a sample case and document have a look in issue 79268.
.
Changing to TASK as this was no requirement yet. Note: this change may affect automated tests.
It violates the spec and therefore breaks the auto tests. So this can not be done for OOo 2.3. We have to reconsider this issue for 2.4. Meanwhile we should at least handle this situation: * you have a valid range * you click one of the checkboxes or radio buttons -> the range becomes invalid * you can't get back as the controls are disabled. Solution: disable all buttons that would render the range invalid.
Violation of the spec is no reason to postpone this. Please ask to have the spec changed since the behavior is quite inconvenient to the user.
Fixed it this way. A checkbox/radiobutton is disabled when after clicking it, the range would be verified as invalid. Checking auto-tests.
Please verify in CWS chart07. Check that changing the radio buttons and check boxes do not lead to an invalid range (when it was valid before).
@mru: one for you.
Verified in CWS chart07.
Checked in 680m224.
