Bug ID: 148433
Summary: Extreme keyboard input delays in paragraphs which
contain both rtl and numeric characters in DOCX files
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: bensha...@gmail.com
Description:
There are extreme keyboard input delays (when typing characters and/or
navigating with the arrow keys) in paragraphs which contain both rtl and
numeric characters in DOCX files.
Since the arrow keys and the characters are handled in independent queues, for
some reason, this bug makes it very difficult to edit such files in
libreoffice. The characters typed are often inserted before the arrows even if
the user typed the arrow first.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the attached file in writer.
2.Try to move the cursor along each of the four paragraphs using the arrow
keys.
Actual Results:
In the second paragraph (the only one containing both rtl and numeric
characters) the cursor moves extremely slowly and makes uncontrollable jumps.
In the other three paragraphs the cursor moves as expected.
Expected Results:
No input delay should occur in the second paragraph.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This is tested on ubuntu 22.04 with gnome 42, but I suspect that this problem
is platform-independent.
