This exact issue was also posted by a user, TheCrazyDriver, on the LibreOffice
subreddit:

"I cannot type some characters because the sidebar opens"
https://www.reddit.com/r/libreoffice/comments/13h9qwd/i_cannot_type_some_characters_because_the_sidebar

Except he was using a Hungarian keyboard.

The problem is:

- Ctrl+Alt+3 = Open the Gallery Deck

but:

- AltGr+3

seems to be matching the Ctrl+Alt shortcut too...

- - -

I found a workaround mentioned by LeroyG in Bug #151614 which was:

- an AltGr+4 problem instead!
- (Fixed in 7.4.2, so maybe same solution can be applied here?)

I'll post my rewritten workaround below:

- - -

Current workaround:

1] Tools > Customize

2] Go to "Keyboard" tab.

3] You should see 2 radio buttons in the upper right corner:

- LibreOffice
- Writer
--- (Selected by default)

Select "LibreOffice" instead!

4] Now, scroll down to:

- Ctrl+Alt+3 = Open the Gallery Deck

4.1] Click on that row, then:

- Press "Delete" button.

That should remove that default shortcut. Now, your AltGr+3 should work to type
a ^ instead of opening the Gallery!
