Bug ID: 153365
Summary: Invoking font list freezes program and after long
delay crashes LibreOffice
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.2.0.4 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: hal...@gmail.com
Description:
Windows 64. With text program and slide program, invoking font list freezes
program and after long delay crashes LibreOffice. Have tried repeatedly with
all 7.4 releases and 7.5. One user online said that this problem did not exist
with 7.3.7. I installed 7.3.7, and it pulled up my font list immediately
without problem. The text used to experiment was very short, so file size is
not the issue. My laptop has a modern CPU and 8mb of RAM. It has handled
multiple graphics programs simultaneously with problem. The user scenario is
that many users, such as I am, need to access multiple fonts for document
design. Inability to access such a basic capability as fonts is a deal breaker.
I am willing to use the deprecated 7.3 for a reasonable time to fix this bug.
Otherwise, users needing more than basic text design will have to look
elsewhere. Thanks for your help.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open Writer or Impress on Windows
2.type in a sentence
3.call up font list (I have, like other designers, a long list of fonts, which
however works quickly and smoothly on 7.3.7.
Actual Results:
The new versions freeze the system including other applications, then at least
80% of the time completely crashes.
Expected Results:
Font list should invoke immediately to use in modifying text.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
All as above
