I can see the issue in the attachment: Steps: 1. Right-click on existing pivot table > Properties... Result: nothing in "Column Fields" nor in "Data Fields". However, if you right-click > Refresh the pivot table, the values update and are calculated properly! If I recreate the pivot table in 7.3.7.2 with: 1. Select 3 columns 2. Data > Pivot table > Insert of edit... > OK 3. Drag "Continent" into "Row Fields" 4. Drag "Data2" into "Data Fields", double-click it to change to "count" 5. Click OK 6. Right-click on new pivot table > Properties... Result: the properties are still there, works as expected. Tested in: Version: 7.3.7.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e114eadc50a9ff8d8c8a0567d6da8f454beeb84f CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded So the issue is that pivot tables created in a version prior to the fix for bug 118117 result in *functioning* properties that are not displayed in the dialog in later versions. Justin, what do you think? Original spreadsheet from Meta.xml was created in LibreOffice/7.0.4.2$Linux_ARM_EABI LibreOffice_project I modified it in 7.3.7.2 just to add image so neither is earlier version. It was created in German language version so the word displayed in Data fields was "Daten" not "Date". Apparently, it still displays "Daten" in German version, de.DE. Maybe better to have an error dialogue on creation of pivot table based on a range with a heading using reserved words so the issue could be corrected before the pivot table is created. Here is a patch that fixes it: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/149013 However I am a little reluctant to get involved in this again, since I don't know anything about pivot tables, and they obviously need a lot of work. |
