--- Comment #18 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- Comment from the original reporter on Reddit about the filing of this bug: "Thank you! I hope it will be fixed eventually, because for now that's the only reason why I can't be comfortable using LO. Actually, I noticed this problem immediately, but I decided to post only after it started interfering with my work in the app. Specifically, if you switch between different paragraphs too quickly, the UI skips updates completely. You can test this by creating two paragraphs with different alignments, making one bold or applying other formatting, and then quickly switching between them using the up and down arrow keys. As a result, you can't quickly preview the styles of each paragraph. I had to wait for over a second for the UI to update so I could view the styles. Additionally, attempting to change styles, such as making text bold, won't take effect if the UI hasn't updated yet (you can verify this yourself). So for me, it's not just about sidebar being too slow to update, but some of the other things too. The sidebar is just the slowest one. I don't believe my reaction time is unusually fast; I'm just an average user. There are no such issues with Word; its UI changes so quickly that even after repeatedly using the rapid up and down keys trick between paragraphs, I don't notice any delays, let alone problems with changing styles. Both apps use C++, so achieving the same performance in LibreOffice should be possible." -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
