            Bug ID: 118907
           Summary: Protect Sheet dialog does not warn if CapsLock is on
                    when creating password
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.5.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: libreoffice at trevorparsons.com

Description:
When you enter and confirm a password in the Protect Sheet dialog of
Libreoffice Calc while CapsLock is toggled on, there is no warning.

Users don't usually intend for CapsLock to be on while they are creating a
password. If CapsLock has been toggled on accidentally, or the user has
forgotten to toggle it off, it's therefore possible that they will be unaware
that they are creating a password with inverted capitalisation, and will
probably not know why their attempts to unprotect the sheet fail.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. "Accidentally" toggle CapsLock on.
2. Tools > Protect Sheet. Enter and confirm password.

Actual Results:
No warning is given either while you are entering and confirming the passwords
or when you select OK.

Expected Results:
A warning should be given.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
