Bug ID: 105758
Summary: Writer 5.3.0.3 Truncates Alphabetical Index Entries
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.3.0.2 rc
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: libretraining.tutori...@gmail.com
Description:
Writer 5.3.0.3 truncates Alphabetical Index entries by deleting the last
character in the term.
I have been working on an Index in a long document using Writer 5.2.5.1.
I modified the default index format to conform to well known style manuals.
The entries should look like this:
Access2Base, 1
LibreOffice, 2
Instead they look like this:
Access2Bas, 1
LibreOffic, 2
It works correctly in Writer 5.2.5.1.
It does NOT work correctly in Writer 5.3.0.3.
Attached is a demo document.
The document is simply one paragraph with some index terms marked, and two
indexes inserted below - upper index has the default settings, the lower index
has been modified by deleting the [T} (tab) and entering instead ", " (comma
space).
Open the demo document in Writer 5.2.5.1 and refresh both indexes.
- Default index format works
- Modified format works
Open the demo document in Writer 5.3.0.1 and refresh both indexes.
- Default index format works
- Modified format does NOT work - truncates the last character of each term
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert an Alphabetical Index
2. Modify Alphabetical Index default format.
3. Delete the [T] (tab) and enter ", " (comma space)
4. Save
5. Update the index
Actual Results:
The expected results are an index where the terms are not missing the last
character.
Expected Results:
Truncated index terms.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No. Does not appear relevant.
Additional Info:
This was all working fine in recent Writer v5.2.x.x versions.
The problem appeared with the update to Writer v5.3.0.3.
The index format I am using is the format recommended in both The Chicago
Manual of Style, and The Oxford Guide to Style.
So I would say it is fairly important that this works properly in Writer.
