[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #6 from [email protected] --- I attempted to replicate this bug and was able to. My test environment is Apache OpenOffice 4.1.3, AOO413m1(Build:9783)- Rev.1761381, which is the latest version for macOS. According to following the provided steps: 1. Create a new text document in the OpenOffice. 2. Pressing and holding a character, such as a, e, i, o, u. Expected result: accented characters are displayed. Actual result: key repeat instead of the accented character. According to follow-up tests. I attempted to test: 1. Create a new text document in the OpenOffice. 2. Pressing and holding a character, such as y, s, l, z, c, n. Expected result: alternate characters are displayed. Actual result: key repeat instead of the alternate character. Thus, the OpenOffice didn't display alternate or accented character when the user holds a key down. The another follow-up test, which is testing OpenOffice whether typing an accented or alternate version of a character is accepted. 1. Create a new test document in the OpenOffice. 2. Attempt to paste an accented character, à, into the text document. Expected result: an accented, à, display properly in the text document. Actual result: Attempt to paste an accented, à, into the text document. The conclusion is that the OpenOffice accept and show the accented and alternate version of a character. I hope that the developers are able to fix this bug. Base on the majority of macOS users, they are accustomed to use type an accented version of a character by holding a key down. In the current version, the only way the OpenOffice user can type an accented or alternate version of a character that is click (insert -> special character) or paste an accented character directly. Thus, it is importance that fixing this bug. Test by: Jiahao Wu -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
