Bug ID: 118288
Summary: The "Save a copy" or "Save As" dialog adds a dot at
the end of the filename sometimes for spreadsheets
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.3.7.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: maitchy at gmail.com
Description:
When saving a spreadsheet LibreOffice 5.3.7.2.0+ (Build ID: 5.3.7.2-9.fc26) the
dialog sometimes lists as the default name to save it under as the current
filename with a trailing dot (but no extension after the "."). Normally the
base part of the filename is highlighted and no dot or extension follows it,
but sometimes a trailing dot is added and it is the only part of the filenamne
that is highlighted. If I don't spot it then I might create a file named
something this test1..html instead of test1.html.
It happens often, for many files, over the last few versions of LibreOffice,
but it doesn't happen every time... I had thought it occurs if and only if a
numeric cell is selected when trying to save, but doesn't always happen, and
sometimes occurs when a text cell is selected. It can happen several times in a
row (with different cells selected at the time I save) then revert to normal
and stay normal until I load another spreadsheet. I am not sure exactly which
was the first version to have this bug.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a recent spreadsheet
2.possibly edit some cells
3. Choose "Save as" or Save a copy, and look at default name for saving -
sometimes has a surplus "." character
Actual Results:
File name suggested by dialog might be "test." if current file is "test.ods"
Expected Results:
File name suggested should be "test" (without a dot) or possibly "test.ods" (or
"test.html" if an HTML type is selected).
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: No
