[Issue 128269] New: Cell conditional formatting has a logic error

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=128269

          Issue ID: 128269
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Cell conditional formatting has a logic error
           Product: Calc
           Version: 4.1.7
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows 10
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 (lowest)
         Component: formatting
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: craigydon14@yahoo.co.uk
  Target Milestone: ---

Conditional formatting has a logic fault. 

I try to display certain text with a background colour for emphasis and put the
condition as "is equal to" to display text "X" with a background colour. When I
apply this filter the result is the inverse of what it should be - all cells
that DO NOT contain the text "X" have a background colour added, and the cell
with "X" has no colour.

Hi,

Because your conditional formatting must be refer to :
"x"

And not :
x

So, this issue is not a bug ;)

You are in wrong place here. This tool is a bug tracking system and not a help
desk.

You must use a style and a template if you want this setting.

Created attachment 86817

Screen shot of formatting error

Please find attached a screen shot showing the conditional format I have
applied. If there is an "X" in the cell, the cell should show a green
background. As you can see, the green background is being applied to the cells
that DO NOT contain an "X".

I don't know how much clearer I can make the explanation.

And kindly don't ask me not to "spam" this thread when it is the responses I
have been receiving that qualify as spam.

Please attach a small file that shows the error. That make it easier to
investigate.

Marcus

Kindly do not treat bug reports so dismissively. Clearly this isn't a help desk
as your response is no help at all.

I have been using his kind of software for more than thirty years, so I know
how it is supposed to work.

When you apply a conditional formatting filter to display text in a particular
colour if the value in the cell is above zero, and the operation works in the
reverse manner to the criteria applied in the function, namely turning all
cells that are BELOW zero that colour instead, then it is a BUG.

Kindly address the reported problem.
