Caolan

  • Calc - missing content
    • wild goose chase of a a reproducible cell-in-edit goes blank when
      an automated user randomly cycles editing cells and deleting stuff
    • column with numbers “right-aligned” for rendering but
      “left-aligned” for editing where the automated user triggers a
      formula update that refreshes the editview of the human user and
      the active editing snaps back to the outer “right-aligned” mode
      and ends up outside the clip area
    • more of the same, first effort not sufficient
  • accessibility
    • backport fixes and 100% a11y test coverage support for calc
      and impress dialogs/sidebars/notebookbar in prep for
      test of calc/impress
  • TTT on the joys of PDF font extraction and reconstruction

Calc: Pre-View Spreadsheet Filtering

  • Fixed more issues
    • also started implement some missing Operations
    • TODO to get all into main
  • Most of reported issues are fixed now - directly or can’t reproduce anymore

Vector rendering for online:

  • Got a lot of primitives reviewed and merged into main.
  • Now working on graphic primitives
    • also adding infrastructure to get the original graphic files from core
    • then redraw once the Graphic is fetched from the server
    • but vector renderer is not directly doing this
    • a pass checking the primitives to get the needed resources first, then draw or re-draw
  • Interesting things start now
  • Will do main slide rendering in parallel to adding primitives

Carlito Font issue:

  • In process: Calc EditEng migrator for cells
    • Added some tests for this
