Consistent with Excel behavior, BTW I would expect such behaviour, when I have selected only the label row, and range is extended columnwise until empty cell. I think this is not a bug. The range is auto resizing, for example write some text into empty cell (Bottom4, cell P20). This text is automaticaly included into range and range is resized. Ubuntu 14.10 x64 LibreOffice 4.3.2.2 release Reproducible Steps: 1. Download document; 2. Click P7 3. Data -> Filter -> Autofilter (uncheck it) Observed: Autofilter goes away (good) 4. Highlight cells P7-P16 5. Data -> Filter -> Autofilter (check it) 6. Click on down arrow on P7 to get the list to appear Observed: You see values that were not highlighted (values in P17-P19) Expected: You only see what was highlighted when you applied the auto filter (thus to comport with documentation) Marking as: New Minor - can slow down professional quality work but won't prevent it Low - I don't see this having a huge impact or anything so not worth raising from default. Going to check to see if it's a regression right now, if it is I'll bibisect it. Thanks! Apparently it's always worked this way - updating version as version is the oldest version that we can confirm the issue on. At least PreBibisect. |

Created attachment 108809 [details] Auto-filter feature The documentation (F1) for auto-filter says: "Automatically filters the selected cell range, and creates one-row list boxes with which you can choose the items that you want to display." How ever, for filtering is used a range that is extended from the given range by rows, until there is an empty cell at bottom. The version of calc is 4.3.3.2 (not included in version list). Expected behaviour: as documented. In attachment, a label and cells 1-9 are selected and auto-filter is created so that the first row is used as label. When filtered items are listed, there are listed also "Bottom1" - "Bottom3" (wrong), but not "Bottom 5" (ok).
