Bug ID: 143298
Summary: Writer: CTRL-TAB to cycle through suggestions for word
completion does not work
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.1.4.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: a...@mellomrommet.no
Description:
Ediiting, Formatting: When editing text I am used to hitting CTRL-TAB to cycle
through suggestions for word completions. This behaviour is described in the
help documents of LibreOffice and works as expected in Calc: when editing text
in cells, CTRL-TAB does cycle alternatives.
However, Writer acts as if I only hit TAB: a tab stop is inserted. Other
shortcuts involving the CTRL key works as expected: CTRL-O to open files,
CTRL-S / CTRL-SHIFT-S to save, CTRL-Z to undo, etc.
I had the same problem with a LibreOffice install from the Ubuntu repositories.
I then asked a question at ask.libreoffice.org and was encouraged to try the
newer version from LibreOffice's PPA. The problem persists.
(https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/293091/word-completions-ctrl-tab-wont-cycle-alternative-words-does-not-work/)
I tried
My system is (K)Ubuntu Studio 20.04 with LibreOffice Version: 7.1.4.2
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tools > Autocorrect > Autocorrect options > Word completion > Enable word
completion
2. Type the start of a long word in the list. The first option to complete
shows as a tooltip.
3. Hit CTRL-TAB to cycle to next option.
Actual Results:
Instead of cycling to the next option, a tab stop is inserted.
Expected Results:
Cycling to next option in word completion list.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
CTRL-TAB works as expected in other programs like Firefox or Thunderbird, and
even even in Calc.
