Bug ID: 165447
Summary: LibreOffice Writer hangs when using Find & Replace to
find single-underlined text to then apply yellow
highlighting
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.0.3 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
When using Find and Replace to find all single-underlined text and then apply
yellow highlighting, the application hangs.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start LibreOffice Writer > Enter a text string "TestTestTest" > highlight
text string > in Ribbon, click on "underline"
2. Edit > Find & Replace
3. Click on Find: entry field > Click on Attributes > Click Underline > Click
OK
4. Click on Replace: entry field > Click on Format > Click on Highlighting >
Click on Color > Click Yellow > Click OK
5. Click on "Replace All"
6. A pop-up window appears "To proceed with this action, you must first turn
off the "undo" function. Do you want to turn off the "undo" function? Click
"Yes"
7. Cursor is now an "hourglass" icon and application hangs.
Actual Results:
Application hangs. Cursor becomes an hourglass icon. Find and Replace window
title says "Find and Replace (Not Responding). I click on a red X, and a pop
up window "LibreOffice is not responding", asking if I want to close the
program.
Expected Results:
All underlined text strings in the document are highlighted yellow.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
This does not happen when using Find and Replace to find bold or italicized
text and then apply yellow highlighting. Application does not hang. The bold
and italicized text is correctly highlighted in yellow.
I discovered this issue when attempting to record a macro that will
automatically apply yellow highlighting to bold, italic, and underlined text
within a document.
