I use auto-filter all day long, what used to take me less then a second now takes me seconds. Is there anyway to revert? If not, this makes LibreOffice about useless to me. Use case: I only want to see red from a list of 10 colors. Old way: click type r, select, I see what I need. New way: click, unselect all, scroll through list, select, click ok. I'm not sure how this is "better" it's a total waste of my time, and personally not what the auto-filter is for. What you created was another full filter that was always there.

I have one small issue with current implementation in v3.5. Old implementation of autofilter we can jump to the intended word in list by typing the initial few letters. That was very handy and didn't require use of mouse. now i have to use mouse to scroll till i reach the intended filter item. Could you please add that functionality? or may be the option between old-filter v/s advance filter? Thanks. I really appreciate you work and effort to improve over age old autofilter.

Also after the filter menu is closed, please auto-scroll the current sheet up to the top so that users don't think there are no results with the current filter and really, they just need to scroll up for them.

Excel has neat feature that help us select certain cells in the range base on criteria like blank, has comment, has formulas, has constants called Goto Special. It would be nice if calc has some feature like that, as i use it often to clean up my data. Anyway Guys, Keep Up the good work. Its good to see calc is finally catching up with excel.

We're using LibreOffice 3.5 at work and are apart from some performance problems pretty happy with it. Unfortunately we found a quite annoying problem with the new autofilter. The Cells in the column which is filtered have some very long content, which looks always the same at the beginning and differs only at the end. Unfortunately the window for the Autofilter is too small in breadth so that when trying to filter you can't see the whole lenght of the content, which makes it very hard to find the content you want to filter for. Any advice on how to solve that problem? Nice update on the autofilter. We’re using LibreOffice 3.5 at work and are apart from some performance problems pretty happy with it.

This is because it now hides the values in the current column, which may be useful to see when selecting a value in the drop down list. I've been using 3.5 for a while and find that I do indeed often like to see the values currently displayed there (and now hidden by the drop down). I better design choice would be to align the left border of the dropdown window with the dropdown button (further right) and leave cell values visible.
