Description Aditya Dewan 2017-06-17 01:31:47 UTC
Only for Calc and Impress -

Expandable option is currently not working while using the 'find' feature, without it we cannot enable searching as the user types.

Lets say we have a document with text 'aaaaaa' at multiple places.
Ideally, if we are searching as user types each character, the selection should expand. 
As in here if the user types 'a' in the search box, the first character should get selected, when he changes the query to 'aa', the selection should expand to include the first two characters, and not jump to another occurrence.

*For Impress, the problem exists only in files with multiple slides.

Thank you for reporting the bug.
it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

Hi,
I think there is some confusion here. 
This bug is against LibreOffice online only.

Yes, these are issues in LibreOffice Online.
