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.
