FOUND THE BUG.
Mar. 26th, 2022 11:37 pmI was grumbling about LibreOffice Calc the other day! Specifically, about a 22 that had shown up in the middle of the graph in ways that confused and dismayed me!
WELL. Today -- among other things -- I found out how to make it go away and also how I'd got it there in the first place.
To wit: I had apparently single-clicked on the graph (to select it as a whole entire object) and then absent-mindedly started typing 2, which I wanted to enter into the cell I was looking at, but focus still doesn't follow eyeballs and nor do I want it to do so in any way that is not hugely context-dependent.
However. If you single-click on the graph and then just press backspace, the entire graph -- quite reasonably -- gets deleted!
... in order to delete the mysterious and unnecessary palindromic numbers I first had to do some more typing, to get it to enter the fucked-up text-entry mode in the first place, and THEN I could backspace and delete shit.
I... am almost fascinated enough by wtf to go digging around in the LibreOffice code!
