--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
Well, actually there is a way to stop running macro. In my system, with default
settings, the corresponding combination is Shift+Ctrl+Q.

To test, you may create a macro with this:

while true
wend

and run it. It will run in background, but if you look into IDE, you will see
that it runs. If you use the combination, a dialog pops up saying that macro
has been stopped.

Your case is an edge case. The msgbox routine creates a modal dialog that
intercepts all input and has no special processing of hotkeys. So, whatever you
press while the message box is up, it will not reach LO. When you close the
message box, another one pops up immediately, giving you no time to use the
hotkeys. If you have no other LO windows open at the moment, you will have to
close all the boxes. But I doubt that this is a real-life issue. If you develop
the macro, and have IDE open, you may use its controls to stop the macro. Other
LO windows are not blocked by the message boxes, so the hotkey will stop it.

I close it as NOTABUG. But if you feel that it is incorrect, please reopen it.
Don't forget to describe your point. You may, for instance, want to make this
an enhancement request to enable the modal dialog boxes to process the
macro-terminating hotkeys.
