            Bug ID: 150331
           Summary: EDITING: AutoCorrect without "Show as tip" always
                    fills in rest of word regardless of next key stroke
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.4.0.0 beta1+
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

This is with version 7.4.0.2 (prerelease version).

I open a new Writer document (English language).  My AutoCorrect options under
Word Completion have:
* Enable word completion (ticked)
*   Append space (not ticked)
*   Show as tip (not ticked)
* Accept with: (return/enter key)

I then type (without the quote marks): "Sun" and AutoCorrect offers the option
"Sunday", showing me the letters "day" with a dotted underline and pale blue
background.  So far so good.  But whatever I type next, these three characters
are kept.  So if I try to type "Sunny", I end up with "Sundayny"; "Sun"
followed by backspace ends up with "Sunda", and "Sun" followed by enter/return
ends up with "Sundayday".

This behaviour occurs on both Debian GNU/Linux (version 7.4.0~rc2-3) and MacOS
(version 7.4.0.2).

I've marked it as "major" because it causes Writer to be really annoying and
hard to use, and is likely to lead to errors.
