Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 77236
Can split merged cells in protected sheet
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:14:13 UTC
1. Create empty spreadsheet doc 2. Merge some cells 3. Protect current sheet 4. Un-merge (split) operation is allow, but it should not.
Confirmed this behaviour in OOo 2.2 in Windows XP. If you undo (Ctrl+Z) it will undo anything, including a protection of sheet. Perhaps this is as intended, because if you save the document and then open it, then it is really protected. So I don't think this is an error. Can an expert comment on my commment ?? :)
Confirmed this behaviour in OOo 2.2 on Windows 2000. I think the OP was not meaning Ctrl+Z to do step 4, but you can also use the tool bar icon to un-merge the cells. This should not be possible while the sheet is protected.
Have changed to 'new' - issue confirmed.
Hi Niklas, seems to be your construction site. Unmerging works and merging brings up protected cells warning. Should be the same in both cases. Frank

maoyg, I suggest changing issue type to "patch".
Similar to merging, unmerging of unprotected cells should still be allowed.

Hello Niklas, Please review the latest patch,thanks!
Checking the protection of a single cell isn't enough, unmerging can also handle larger cell ranges. Also, merging shows an error message when called for protected cells. Unmerging should probably do the same.
