Summary of the issue you are facing:

predefined dropdown cells in spreadsheet cannot be used:

when hovering over such a cell, a small arrow indication a dropdown cell appears right of the cell border.

When clicking on this downward arrow I would expect the dropdown with the possible values to appear, instead the adjacent cell to the right (where the arrow icon overlaps) is selected and no value options are shown.

@roberting that depends on the Collabora version that “Wolkesicher” is offering. from CODE 26.04 dropdown lists have been revised, so it may not be an issue in 26.04 any longer

this could be a Collabora issue Issues · CollaboraOnline/online · GitHub
