            Bug ID: 173014
           Summary: When selecting some rows and choosing AutoFilter
                    checkbox, AF should be cleared rather than re-applied
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 27.2.0.0 alpha0+ master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Reproduction instructions:

1. Open Calc
1. Enter some data, e.g.

aa,bb
11,22
12,34
56,78

2. Selec the cells with the data.
3. On the menus, Choose Data > AutoFilter
4. Select a subset of the (two-column) table rows, e.g. the 11 and the 12 rows
(i.e. 2x2 cells).
5. On the menus, Choose Data > AutoFilter

Expected behavior: 
During step 5, we see AF checked on the menu. After step 5, one of two things
happen:
I. The AutoFilter is removed. Choosing again creates an AF using just the
selected rows.
II. You get a dialog box for choosing whether to remove the current AF; remove
and create a new one; or do nothing.

Actual Behavior:
During step 5, we see AF checked on the menu. After step 5, the old AF is
removed, and a new AF is introduced using the selected rows.


The reason for my expectation is that the AF menu item is a checkbox. When you
choose/press a checked box, it's supposed to be unchecked. Plus, it is more
intuitive to me to have the single action only remove the current AF, since
repeating is easy, while undoing is more complex and annoying.
