Description Marcin Steć 2016-12-10 15:35:13 UTC
Description of problem:
Navigator panel (F5 keyboard shortcut under Writer) shows up on the right side. Moved to the left, remains there until document is closed, or whole Writer is closed. When I open document (same or other) Navigator panel appears again on the right, not on on the position it was left before.
I've observerd the same behavior on Impress, Draw and Calc. It is not happening on Fedora 24.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libreoffice-core-5.2.3.3-11.fc25.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create new document.
2.Open navigation panel (View -> Navigator)
3.Close the document.
4.Open the document again.

Actual results:
Navigator panel appears on the right side.

Expected results:
Navigator panel should appear where it was left before.

Comment 1 Caolan McNamara 2016-12-12 13:10:27 UTC
Can I get screen shots of it on the left when its "temporarily" there and when it shows up back on the right. I'm unsure if the whole sidebar was on the left and its a sidebar switching back to the right issue (which I can reproduce) or if its the different standalone navigator issue which I can't reproduce.

Are you using the default login settings, i.e. wayland and gnome ?

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 18:34:06 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2017-12-12 10:45:34 UTC
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
