GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 499723
Find dialog jumps to hidden sheets
Last modified: 2007-11-27 14:09:15 UTC
Version: r16203 OS: Ubuntu Gutsy This bug is similar to the two problems described in Bug 496304. Steps to reproduce: - Run Gnumeric - Type 1 into A1 and press enter - Edit > Sheet > Manage Sheets - Hide and change the direction of Sheet1 (the direction change makes the bug easier to see) - Press OK - Edit > Find - Type 1 into the Search for field - Press Find - Notice that Sheet1 has been focused in the background (the direction of Sheet2 seems to change)
Yup similar. We should not search the deep-deep-undercover sheets. (No gui to create those anyway.) We could avoid searching the hidden sheets, but that will not fix this bug as the search dialog is not modal.

Needs review.
This patch doesn't look complete: Moving GnmSheetVisibility into gnumeric.h should probably go along with deleting it from sheet.h. We are still going to search on hidden sheets?
Sorry, that is incomplete. Just pretend the enum got deleted from sheet.h > We are still going to search on hidden sheets? I think so. Later I might add a checkbox on the Advanced tab for that.
looks good to me.
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
