Bug ID: 105271
Summary: Sideways page display jump & window flash with every
character typed under dual window condition
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.2.3.3 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Scenario: A multi-page Writer all-text doc with 2 normal-view (not Web view)
windows open on same doc. Label the windows MAIN and REFERENCE where active
editing is in MAIN and REFERENCE is positioned 1 or 2 pages later in the doc
such that there is no content overlap between the windows. Between MAIN and
REFERENCE in the doc there are no manual or Styles-associated forced page
breaks that potentially could buffer text flow. Editing in MAIN which changes
text length in MAIN propagates by text flow to what is displayed in REFERENCE
as expected.
IFF (If & only If) *both* MAIN and REFERENCE page windows are *wider* than the
WYSIWYG doc page, meaning the right hand scroll bar or properties sidebar is
not visually overlapping the right side of the WYSIWYG doc page, then for each
character typed (inserted) or deleted in MAIN:
A) The MAIN WYSIWYG doc page does a sideways right jump and then a left return
and Writer mis-places or looses track of the horizontal position of the cursor
is as if both cursor and text jump right but only the text then returns left.
For subsequent character inserts characters are inserted as expected from where
the cursor was initially placed but the displayed cursor maintains a
7-character right offset in the lengthening text. Delete or backspace works as
expected where the cursor was initially placed but the cursor maintains the
same right offset, so things become confusing very quickly.
B) For each character insertion or deletion or even mouse click in MAIN,
REFERENCE flashes an otherwise absent horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of
its page window.
