Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 80446
Cannot select data range with mouse using generic X11 plugin
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:18:40 UTC
This problem has only be seen on Linux / KDE (Linux XFCE or Windows are ok). - create a new spreadsheet and enter some values - add a new chart, using the wizard - in step 2 press the "select data range" icon (right of the data range input box - the dialog is shrinked -> expected: Data Range can be selected with Mouse -> got: the shrinked Dialog still blocks the Calc window,so mous selection is not possible It is the same for Data Series in Wzard and in the respective dialog outside the wizard
Uh, doesn't sound good. It works on my Linux system (m225). Have to check.
->kla: Sending back, because I have no KDE to check this issue on. Please evaluate.
Could reproduce this. It looks like the range-chooser window is treated as modal. No idea why this happens only on KDE, and why the other occurences of this dialog (Insert/Names/Define, Function auto-pilot, Data/Define Range) are treated differently.
Mention KDE in summary.
@pl: have you any idea about this (KDE) behaviour?
changing target
Note: also happens on Gnome when environment variable SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN is set to "gen".
actually this is a timing issue which is triggered by asynchronous focus handling in Dialog::Notify; as a side effect that does SetModalInput mode itself and triggers EnableInputMode on the dialog's parent. weird. fixed in CWS vcl23101
adjust title accordingly
please verify in CWS vcl23101
seen ok in CWS VCL23101 -> verified

I have encountered this problem in Ubuntu Gutsy. People at Ubuntu Bug #153158 have experienced, that switching desktop effects off works around this problem. So I don't know, whether it is the same issue or not.
It works fine in OOo 2.3.1 but not in OOo-Dev_SRC680_m241.
reopened - same here, data ranges ar not selectable in m241
It works here not in OOo-Dev_SRC680_m241. I'm not able to select the data ranges. Systemenvironment: OpenSuSE 10.2-i586, KDE 3.5.8.
Data ranges ar not selectable in m242
@pb: Do you want a new issue for this behaviour in m 241/242? Or will you fixed it again in this "old" issue?
I already have an issue for this problem in 2.4, issue 84265 which is fixed in CWS vcl85. I'll close this one again and add 84265 to 84957.
back to verified
closing again
