--- Comment #14 from [email protected] --- @Steve No I am not using any window manager. However, I do have some more information on this issue. Deadlocks would occur for various activities, however under certain test environments (see end of post) certain actions would trigger the deadlock with high probability. Environment A would show this for typing text in a table consistently. However, I think that typing text into a table is just a red herring for the deadlock issue. I think it maybe related to toolbar state. Process ~~~~~~~~ What I did try to do was to make LibreOffice the same for all 3 testing environments since there was some discussion that it may be an OS version issue. This included completely clearing out "~/Library/Application Support/libreoffice/4/" files and reinstalling from the same install image. Dead Lock Observations ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Running with a clean install and default setup in general reduced the frequency of deadlocks. However after copying my desired setting files back the frequency of deadlocks increase. Staring from the default setup and making changes manually it seems like increasing the number of visible toolbars and increasing the number of tools on the tool bar increased deadlock. So it is not likely a corrupt settings file. When selecting "User Interface \ Single Tool bar" it was much more difficult to reproduce deadlock in all 3 environments. With lots a tool bars showing just losing focus could trigger a dead-lock (spinning ball would briefly appear before libreoffice lost focus then when clicking on libreoffice again it would be in deadlock). I could get this to occur in environments A and B pretty consistently. It would happen in environment C intermittently and often took a lot of work / time to trigger. I also noticed that toolbar state would change (grey-out tools) when losing focus to another application. Unstable Versions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Both libreoffice version 7.2.6 and version 7.2.7 suffers from deadlock. In environments A and B I would get a deadlocks with my preferred toolbar settings consistently for certain actions (get deadlock, restart, perform same action and get deadlock again) and randomly maybe every hour of usage. In environment C I would get deadlock maybe once a day sometimes less when using it all day. Stable Version ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have now been using version 6.2.8.2 daily on large documents for over 3 months without a single dead-lock. It seams like version 6.2.8.2 does not suffer from this issue. Testing Environments (A, B, C) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A) On MacOS (10.11.6) running very old hardware dead locks were easily reproducible when editing table text. B) On MacOS (10.14.6) running on old hardware dead locks occurred but sporadically. C) On MacOS (12.6) running on newer hardware dead locks occurred but where harder to reproduce (hours). Not sure if the differences in dead lock reproducibility is due to the OS version or hardware or a combination of the two. I'm guessing it is a timing thing which would be affected by both hardware and software. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
