Bug ID: 170026
Summary: Search function crashes on first try after opened
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.1.1 release
Hardware: IA64 (Itanium)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I use the search function multiple times to change certain foreign words into
italics. Every time after opening Libreoffice for the first time, and after
restoring recovered files, I need to make sure that everything is saved. As
soon as I click on the magnifying glass or call up the search and replace
function, all open LO files crash. I've managed to get most back, but
unfortunately some have been lost or damaged, which necessotated many hours
rebuilding everything. THis is extremely frustrating! I'm marking Calc below,
but it has happened on Writer as well as Impress as well. It happens very
often, but at time you least expect it.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open two or more instances, such as one Writer file, one Calc file and one
Impress file.
2. Try replacing a word in Writer by selecting the magnifying glass or probably
any other method - search and replace it where the problem is.
3. As soon as the magnifying glass is clicked, Libreoffice dies a certain and
quick death. I've doen a screen recording of this, but can't anywhere to upload
it.
Actual Results:
Starting a previously used file, it opens a dialog, trying to recover the lost
files. Most times it is successful, but I have lost many hours of work which
had to be redone. I never experienced this with microsuck's powerpoint.
Expected Results:
A decent fix, where these things do not happen. Apar from wasting time when it
crashes, it also wates time when file can not be recovered. Who pays for that?
Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
Work correctly. Please let me know where I can upload a screen recording.
