Bug ID: 140734
Summary: Able to enter data into protected cell in Writer in
7.1.0.3 Community Edition
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.1.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: thomas.naser4 at gmail.com
Description:
I was able to enter data into a cell that was previously made "Protected".
But when I attempted to remove the data entered a message appears that states:
Read-only content
Write-protected content can not be saved
No modifications can be made
After some research it appearshis problem may only be on tables that span
across pages
For research, I made a few one page tables, I was unable to enter any text
before the same message appeared.
Next, I made a multi-page table and highlighted all of the cell and write
protected the entire table. The same situation occurred, I was able to enter
data but not remove the data just entered.
And finally, I made yet another nulti-page document and protected the cells
individually, and once again I was allowed to enter data but unable to remove
it.
The documents were saved, the document closed, and Writer was closed and
reopened later, after a few minutes.
In all of the cases, I was the author of the documemt
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a table in Writer that spans pages
2. Populate table.
3. Highlight and choose"Protect Cell"
4, Save and Close document.
5. Close LO
6. Reopen LO, and edit table, without turning "Protect Cell" off.
7. Try to remove entered data, The "This cell is read only" then appears, not
permitting the removal of the edited data.
Actual Results:
I was allowed to enter data into what was supposed to be a "Read Only" cell.
Expected Results:
The warning message regarding "Read Only" should have appeared when the cell
was selected.
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: Yes
OpenGL enabled: Yes
Additional Info:
I experimented with both multiple and single page tables and achieved the same
results.
