Description Roman Kuznetsov 2018-12-12 14:56:17 UTC

Description:
After fix of bug 37223 we can just copy/paste table from Calc to existing table in Writer.
But if table in Calc has merged cells then after paste table in Writer table merging of cells is disappeared.

Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 3c964980da07892a02d5ac721d80558c459532d0
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.1; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
TinderBox: Win-x86@42, Branch:master, Time: 2018-12-12_02:07:45
Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a simple table with merged cells in Calc or open file from attach
2. Create new Writer document
3. Craete a new table in Writer document with 7 row and 7 columns
4. Copy cells from Calc
5. Set up cursor in to <A1> cell in Writer table and make Paste
6. You'll get cool result, but
7. All merged cells will be split

I confirm the described behaviour with

Version: 6.2.0.0.beta1 (x64)
Build ID: d1b41307be3f8c19fe6f1938cf056e7ff1eb1d18
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB
Calc: threaded

But if you just paste the table within a frsh document (and not within a table) everything works fine

Works fine because it will be paste as OLE! 
In the bug 37223 László made very cool feature and now it needs to make some additional work

Dear Roman Kuznetsov,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not
appropriate in this case)

If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
