Re: [orca-list] Likely bug with Office Writer, was: Re: More on submitting Orca bugs



Thanks. I can reproduce it. I'll fix it if it's an Orca bug or report it
if it's a LibreOffice bug.

OK, then, here we go.


Most recent update of Libreoffice Writer.


Orca 3.31.90 Pre


Ubuntu Mate 18.10.


1. Open writer to a blank new document, and type three lines of text
respectedly: item1, item2, and item3 all on their own line.


2. Select all with CTRL+A.


3. Go to the formatting toolbar with F6, hit space on the bullets
button, then enter on one of the bulleted styles, doesn't matter which one.


4. Press CTRL+Home to move to the top of the document, then while at the
beginning of the first line of text, hit shift+down arrow to select the
first line of text.


Orca is going to report something very strange.


Item 1 selected, item 2 selected.


So, this leads one to think the first two lines of text, in this case
the first and second bulleted points are being selected, when, in all
actuality, this definitely isn't the case. All being selected is the
first line as you'd expect. Orca's just not reporting this correctly.


I've been able to produce this weird behavior with bulleted lists on 4
different systems now, not including my friend who also tried, and was
able to reproduce.

Hi Christopher.

While anyone can file official bugs, I typically prefer people start
here stating the problem because often what you think might be a bug
isn't a bug and the user community can help.

Thanks!

I just tried, on the official Gitlab issues page for Orca to submit a
bug report regarding Libreoffice Writer.


The problem is, I don't seem to see it now anywhere in the opened tab of
issues. It appears there only still is 19 issues, not 20. So, I'm
baffeled as to what in the world happened.


Does Joni first have to approve submissions? I didn't mark the checkbox
stating it was confidential so, it should be showing up in theory, I'd
think, shouldn't it?


I know I can post bug reports here, but I wanted to go the official
hopefully correct way of doing this, by filing them on the gitlabs
website. If I should just post the report here however, then do let me
know, and I'll do so going forward.


My user name on gitlabs is


waxhawlover


Hopefully that'll help yall find my submission... provided it didn't
crap out on me, and indeed took.


I did this in Firefox on my Linux machine, and I'm still getting the
hang of web browsing over there, so I might a done something wrong.


Chris.
