Calc Wrong number of selected rows using AutoFilter (Bug)

[sete]

Hi!
Let’s say there’s a table with 10 lines.
Let’s set an autofilter where you can see only lines 2, 4, and 6.
Then, if you select lines 4 and 6 the status bar shows this:

Selected: 3 rows

That is wrong. There are only 2 rows selected. I guess the application counts from 4 to 6 which would be 3 rows.
Then if you apply a different background color to the selected rows and then deactivate the filter, only those 2 rows will have the new color, which is right. So there were only 2 rows selected.

I asked a similar question last week and saw that my question was finally a bug. I reported and receive confirmation that it was a bug but it was already reported a long time ago.
I guess this is another bug but I haven’t found any information about it.
I’m using LibreOffice 6.4.7.2

Does anyone else see this problem?

Can confirm you describe what it shows and that in fact only 2 rows are selected (didn’t test with colorization but using copy&paste to another sheet). Hence: Yes - the number of selected rows in status bar is wrong.

Look like this reported bug tdf#138264

Yes, I failed again.
I reported it and it was already there.
No matter how much time I spend looking for it, I never locate anything about the bug I’ve found.
I’ll have to improve my skill in looking for bugs reported.
