--- Comment #1 from Andre <aw...@googlemail.com> ---
I can not reproduce this bug.
There are two contexts with different sets of visible panels involved here:
- When a cell is selected but not currently being edited then four panels are
visible:
Text, Alignment, Cell Appearance, Number Format (not expanded by default)
- When text in a cell is being edited then only two panels are visible:
Text and Alignment
Therefore the number of visible panels changes every time text editing starts
or ends.
@Edwin Sharp: Can you still reproduce an error with a recent snapshot build?
Platform is Windows7?

Thanks for the video.
It shows me that we were not talking about different things.
The video shows several start-editing-end-editing-cycles on different cells.
The current behavior of the property sidebar is intended as we have defined
different contexts for just having a cell selection and being in cell edit mode
- as Andre already pointed out. For these contexts different property panels
are currently defined to be visible.
Edwin, do I understand you correct that you want these two contexts to be
unified?

I can not reproduce the described defect
- on Ubuntu 10.04 (64bit) with current snapshot build (AOO400m1(Build:9700);
2013-05-03 07:08:08 (Fri, 03 May 2013) - Linux x86_64)
- on Ubuntu 11.10 (64bit) with former snapshot build (AOO400m1(Build:9700);
2013-05-07 14:38:38 (Tue, 07 May 2013) - Linux x86_64)
- on Windows 7 Pro (64bit) with current snapshot build (AOO400m1(Build:9700) -
Rev. 1479897)
- on Windows 7 Pro (64bit) with former snapshot build (AOO400m1(Build:9700) -
Rev. 1478648)
I did the following:
- start OpenOffice
- new spreadsheet document
--> cell A1 is selected and property sidebar shows panels Text, Alignment, Cell
Appearance and Number Format are shown.
- start typing/editing
--> edit cell mode started and property sidebar shows panels Text and Alignment
- continue typing/editing
--> no "blinking" in the property sidebar, Text and Alignment panels are shown
- finish typing/editing
@Edwin:
The version information which you were giving is looking like the one from the
Linux developer snapshot.

You say you can not reproduce but then describe the bug...
Will try recent snapshot later, Windows 7 it is.
There can be no two contexts and when cells are populated with data the
contexts are jumping back and forth.
It is annoying and distracting.
GUI should be static during data input.

Yes.
Reproduce on
AOO400m1(Build:9700)
2013-05-03 07:08:08 (Fri, 03 May 2013) - Linux x86_64
If this is by design, people will turn off the sidebar when filling cells.
And if they turn it off, they will probably won't bother turn it on again...

Yes.
Maybe if removing some panels and putting others instead - I can understand the
logic
But in this case removing for blank space in screen...
Bottom line: erratic working environment = distraction = bad thing.

--- Comment #9 from Andre <aw...@googlemail.com> ---
With the video I now understand that 'blinking' means that different sets of
panels are displayed.
The task shown in the video (insert text into a cell then go the next cell
below) seems to be a frequent use case which would cause the sets of panels to
change quite often. Therefore I made the requested change and added Cell
Appearance and Number Format for the "EditCell" context.

This behavior is in both Win and Debian
Very clear in the video:
http://screencast.com/t/1XwUfCT9eI
-while collected data is inserted into sheet the sidebar is constantly changing
form and distracting the user.
Maybe this is by design (horrible if yes!) so no one understands me?
