Description Jill Miller 2014-07-27 16:40:01 UTC

With a dropdown list containing:

...
Beacon Press
...
Harper Business
Harper Collins
Harper San Francisco
...

Typing 'harper' correctly selects 'Harper Business'. But if you type 'harper b' it jumps to Beacon Press. It appears that search function may not be interpreting the space as a part of the search string.

Hello Jim,

Is it possible for you to attach a sample document containing the bug?

Open the form and try chosing "haper b" like described in the bug

I can confirm this bug.
Doesn't work in any Version of LO since LO 3.3 beta 1. So I will set the version to inherited from OOo.
If you press Space the searching for the value seems to begin new and jumps to the first value beginning with the character, which follows the Space.

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, indeed space character reinitialize the research. However typing harper gives "Harper San Francisco" in for me (with master sources and 4.3.0.4)
