Bug ID: 93301
Summary: Font scaling is set to 400% if user input wrong
character
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: low
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
A user can make LibreOffice unusable by mistyping
1. Open any LibreOffice application
2. Select Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice -> View
3. Write 100?0 to scaling field (You can use any incorrect character instead
of “?”, for example, wrong decimal separator)
4. Press OK
Scaling is set to 400%. LibreOffice interface become unusable (at least for
1280x1024 screen resolution). I think it would be great to show a warning if a
user tried to input not a number into the field.
In LibreOffict 3.5 it was not a problem, because it has much less scale range,
hence, the scale become 130% and a user can open the dialogue and fix his
mistake. In LibreOffice 4.3 - 5.0 it is frustrating.
Workaround:
Open a file with the configuration in a text editor (in my case (Debian Jessie)
the file is
~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/registrymodifications.xcu). Find and delete the
string
<item oor:path="/org.openoffice.Office.Common/View"><prop
oor:name="FontScaling" oor:op="fuse"><value>400</value></prop></item>
