Bug ID: 106173
Summary: EDITING: Opening the context menu on red squiggly
underlined word in LibreOffice takes several seconds
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.2.5.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: jhertel+bugs.documentfoundation....@gmail.com
When a word has a red squiggly line under it (meaning the spelling cannot be
recognized by the spell checker) and I right click it (or place the cursor
inside the word and press the context menu key), it takes 3-7 seconds every
time before the context menu is displayed, if the word is "formatted" as
Danish. If the word is "formatted" as English (USA), it takes 1-2 seconds
(still consistently).
Here are some specifics: I tested with the word "Lisp-agtigt" (which is a valid
Danish word), marked as Danish, and that gives response times at around 5 to 7
seconds; if I test with a gibberish word "slfiouw", again marked as Danish, the
context menu comes up after 3 seconds.
It should go without saying that this is annoying as it stops you in the
process of writing; you just want to add the valid word to the dictionary but
have to wait up to 7 seconds to do that. The display of the context menu ought
to be instantaneous, of course, or at least under 500 ms or so.
I would like to give a list of installed extensions, in case one of them could
be the culprit, but I don't know how. Anyhow, I only have extensions that came
bundled with LibreOffice. And there is no obvious way to disable them via the
user interface, so I can't try disabling them to see if that solves the
problem.
I am not able to compile LibreOffice myself to do any debugging, as there are
no functional instructions on how to do that successfully and consistently on
Windows. I have spent days earlier trying to compile but had to give up in the
end.
I am not using 5.3.0.3 as it has a major bug (Bug 105844) that prevents me from
using it.
