Description Peter Gervai 2016-05-17 14:39:07 UTC
- a sheet created in excel have autofilter active on a column. xlsx saved.
- xlsx loaded into calc
- the fields look filtered
- select the column
- copy
- paste into another sheet
- BUG: all the values are copied, even hidden ones

- change anything in the original table (fiddle with autofilter), then only the corect (visible) cells are copied

package containing xlsx + xls + ods

On Win10 with master sources updated today, I created an ods file with a simple autofilter, then I saved it to xls + xlsx format (the attachment contains the 3 files).
On each of the files, I selected filtered/not hidden lines and copy pasted them on a new sheet to compare number of lines pasted and selected, here are the results:
- ods -> OK
- xls -> OK
- xlsx -> KO
Comment 10 Julien Nabet 2020-02-18 13:42:56 UTC
Let's increase importance since:
- it's easily reproduceable
- it concerns several envs (all?)
- not a corner case
- you may miss the problem when working on your file (so a bit "stealthy")

Copying from https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126505#c11

Problem seems to be that in the Excel file format there is no differentiation between filtered rows and manually hidden rows, there is just a hidden="true" attribute which on import does not result in a filtered row.

Can someone with Excel please create a short sample with an AutoFilter range where one row is filtered (which should not be included in a SUBTOTAL(9;...)) and one row is manually hidden (which should be included in a SUBTOTAL(9;...)) and attach it here? Thanks.

Test on Excel 365

Eike: on Excel 365, I created a brand new file following example at the end of https://support.office.com/en-us/article/subtotal-function-7b027003-f060-4ade-9040-e478765b9939?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US.

Subtotal is 303 at the beginning => OK
I filtered data to filter out line with value = 10, subtotal is 293 => OK
I hid line with value 150, subtotal = 143 => ?? We expected 293 if I well understood the last comments.
