[Libreoffice-qa] Base: Greyed-out icons in document preview on Tables

Hello Thomas,

Which connection? ODBC, JDBC or do you use a direct connection, which
isn't available for every distribution?

Don't know what this symbols should do there. They appear since LO 4.1.
They have nothing to do, because this is a preview, not a possibiltity
for input content into a table.
Up to LO 4.0.* you could only see the table with the fieldnames and the
content.
If the symbols should be more information, they are placed wrong. They
appear in front of the fieldnames and the first row of the content of a
table.

Have never used this preview, so I haven't recognized that this has been
changed from 4.0 to 4.1.

Regards
