GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 677967
unresponsive custom colour dialog
Last modified: 2012-06-13 01:58:04 UTC
new gnumeric Format->Cells->ConditionalFormatting click EditStyle select "custom colour" from the backgound colour combo the custom colour dialog is 100% unresponsive you can't even close that dialog! It only disappears when Gnumeric quits.
Note that this is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumeric/+bug/1008522
The EditStyle dialog seems to keep the focus. I can reproduce on debian, so not ubuntu specific.
The edit syle dialog is really our regular format dialog with most of the pages hidden, but this problem does not occur with the regular invocation of the format dialog!
I see the format dialog under the normal invocation is a go_gtk_nonmodal_dialog (wbcg_toplevel (state->wbcg),... while this invocation is gtk_window_set_modal (GTK_WINDOW (state->dialog), TRUE); gtk_widget_show (GTK_WIDGET (state->dialog));
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.
