Bug ID: 160363
Summary: Context Menus take over 1.5 minutes to display
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.1.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: teob6...@yahoo.com
Description:
LibreOffice WRITER only...version 24.2
With Writer open, selecting any item from upper tool bar (FILE EDIT VIEW ...
HELP) should open the context menu for that entry. Libre Office WRITER only
does NOT open the context menu until over 1.5 minutes later for any of the
items in the tool bar. This happens, I repeat, only for WRITER in version 24.2.
I am not a LibreOffice user myself, but rebuilt a new PC system for a visually
impaired person who is a LIbreOffice person. I had to download the latest
version in install it, which was 24.2, on 2/29/24. Today, my friend called
about a different problem, but it was clearly related to using LibreOffice, so
I checked it out. The WRITER had this issue, which caused him a lot of
headaches since he can't see anything lower than 400% magnified and couldn't
tell what was going on. I first did a REPAIR installation function, but it did
not alter it to correct anything and then a removal and reinstall of 24.2 which
also did not resolve the issue. So, I went to a back level 7.5.9 version and it
resolved the issue! Restating, look only at version 24.2 WRITER.
A side note is that when I did build his new system I put the Right-Click
Windows 10 hack in to replace the Windows 11 context menu. I can't understand
why Microsoft tried to simplify, but in his case, complicate things by putting
what he needs in a second context menu off the 1st one! But, maybe this hack is
involved in the version 24.2 not working properly.
Good luck.
