[Bug 376996] Re: Sudoku not acknowledging winning solution

 

I am still experiencing this bug with cell not being recognized as
filled out after conflict resolution. Please see attached file.

1. Starting position: 1 and 7 are misplaced in the top row.
2. Step one: put 7 in place of 1 in the top row, creating a conflict, marked with red
3. Step two: put 1 in its correct position in the top row, clearing the conflict.
You can now see that 7 in the top row becomes black again, but actually Sudoku thinks that the field is blank. And here is the demonstration to prove just that.
4. Fill out the remaining blank fields. The winning situation is not recognized! And here is the reason why.
5. Print out the game. Note the blank field in the top row where you can see 7 on the screen. It is missing from the printout!
6. Clear this 7 in the top row and put it back in. Now the winning situation is recognized, and everything is fine.

I believe that conflict resolution needs further patching, and
consistency with printout needs to be achieved.?field.comment=I am still
