Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 99952
strike through button fails to update
Last modified: 2013-01-29 21:40:02 UTC
Hello. Please... - open a (blank) spreadsheet - place the strike through button in the toolbar (attached screenshot) (it is not available in the drop down by default and has to placed manual) - apply strike through to cell A1 - move the cell focus (the cell cursor) to cell A2 by using the arrow keys or by clicking the mouse Result: The strike through button is still displayed pressed although A2 does not have the stile applied. The bug also exists vice versa when selecting a cell which has strike through already applied the button fails to indicate that. Expected Result: The strike through button should always update its state to indicate if the cell has the format applied or not. (like bold, underline, italic) The bug should be very easy to fix since working code already exists for the bold/underline/italic buttons. (Bug found on OOo 3.0.1 Linux and Windows builds.)
Created attachment 60770 [details] screen shot of the strike through button
I checked with "Ooo 3.0.1 (DE) Multilingual version GERMAN UI WIN XP: [OOO300m15 (Build 9379)]" and can confirm the reported effect. You can reproduce the problem (after you activated the required button(s)) using my "sample.ods" and walking around in the document using the cursor keys. You should see that the trike through button will only be updated after you pressed F2. That differs from the behaviour of the other buttons (underline, bold, ...).
Additional info: The bug also exists for within-cell editing when navigating the cursor through ONE cell (where only a part of the text has strike through applied).
