Description Marlon Nelson 2007-07-28 18:13:58 UTC 
Ubuntu, 1.7.12 At revision 15712.

To reproduce the bug:

1) Open a new workbook
2) Set A2 to some data
3) Delete column B
4) Set A1 to "=B1" and cycle the formula (F4) before hitting Enter

Results:

Column B is deleted
Comment 1 Marlon Nelson 2007-07-28 18:20:09 UTC 
Oops... I meant that Column A is deleted.
Comment 2 Marlon Nelson 2007-07-28 18:33:00 UTC 
Here's another way to reproduce the bug:

1) Open a new workbook
2) Set A1 to "=B1"
3) Set A2 to some data
4) Delete column C
5) Edit A1 and cycle the formula (F4) before hitting Enter

Results:

Column A is deleted
Comment 3 Jody Goldberg 2007-07-28 21:08:26 UTC 
Replicated.  Something fishy is going on.
Comment 4 Morten Welinder 2007-07-31 01:06:32 UTC 
Confirmed.  Not good.

F4 is supposed to repeat the last command, btw., just not while editing
an expression.
Comment 5 Jody Goldberg 2007-07-31 06:05:34 UTC 
Thhanks for spotting this.  The patch was trivial
s/gtk_action_is_sensitive/gtk_action_get_sensitive/

However tracking it forced me to clean out some unnecessary complexity.

Patch  will be in 1.7.12
Comment 6 Marlon Nelson 2007-07-31 22:13:04 UTC
