             Bug #: 43497
           Summary: User Data: Initials incorrectly assumes 2 letter
                    initials string on update
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.4 release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: ad...@adric.net

initials field incorrectly displays ANN, Mac , libo 3.4.4

In Options (Preferences on Mac) user may input or update first name and last
name fields and on field change (eg with Tab key) the Initials field is
calculated and updated. When initials are not a 2 letter string incorrect
initials are populated.
As noted in #30862 the field is too narrow to see this until it's scrolled
(screenshot attached).

Reproduction:
In User Data fields of Options/Preferences input initials directly (eg 'ADN')
and update First Name (gn) or Last Name (sn) fields directly (eg 'Adric',
'Net'). Initials field is updated to incorrect value 'ANN" rather than 'AN' or
'ADN'.

I've seen this in these builds:
LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402) Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (Intel 64bit)
LibreOffice 3.4.4 OOO340m1 (Build:402) Ubuntu 11.10 (Intel 32bit)

Although this is a trivial display concern easily worked-around it demonstrates
that a assumption made by the software is incorrect. The behaviour I see
suggests that the second character of the string in the Initials field is
updated when a new Last name (sn) is input rather than clearing the field and
drawing a new correct value.
