Bug ID: 156127
Summary: LibreOffice hangs when choosing Tools -> Language ->
For All Text -> Spanish (Spain)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Linguistic
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
I'm marking this as _critical_ because app hanging is similar to a crash (as it
leads to data loss). I've waited 5minutes already and the UI doesn't recover
from a "Not responding" state, so I've had to kill the app and lose all the
work that I had been doing from the last time I saved the document.
This has happened to me on Windows (v7.5.4.2), but it may happen as well in
other platforms. I cannot reproduce this bug, though, for very small document
(around 2 pages), but I can reproduce it reliably for a document of around 100
pages.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open large document (in my testing, the language I can see in the status bar
is "English (Hong Kong)").
2. Tools -> Language -> For All Text -> Spanish (Spain)
Expected results:
Change language in status bar, and maybe start highlighting in underline-red
the words that are no in the Spanish dictionary?
Current results:
It hangs, I cannot use LibreOffice for 5minutes already and so I need to kill
it.
(Maybe with a large document, this action may take time, but if this is the
case, the way to fix it is showing a progress bar to the user so that she
doesn't suspect that the app is dead.)
