[LO-Add-on] black window + underlining in wrong position — 2024-01-11

[marcoagpinto]

Heya, @FredKruse

A few days of testing: I have tested the latest nightly with LibreOffice 24.2.0.1 and its window still gets black with this version of LibreOffice, so probably it is an issue with the add-on.

Also, it underlines in green words in the wrong position and if you right-click them, it doesn't do anything.

See the video attached.

Thanks!

The window blackened:

The problems with the wrong position and no reaction at right mouse click should be solved. Please test it. The turning black of the window seams to be a LibreOffice problem in combination of functions of LT that needs more time. The LO Window doesn't refresh. I have no idea how I could solve this by LT. The window refreshes if you e.g. change the size of the window.

Thank you, @FredKruse

My thesis has been causing too much trouble, I guess 😛 😛 😛 😛 😛 😛 😛

I posted, but the post vanished (or maybe I was stressed and didn't press the comment button).

The bug is still happening:

At least it now underlines whole words instead of the underlines appearing in the middle of words.

This is a bit crazy. I tried to reproduce the bug. But it works well. I tested it under Linux and Windows. Could you try a 'Refresh Check Results'?

Sure, I will delete the cache.

I will test it at 5am.

Heya,

It is 100% reproducible here, it doesn't work.

And now that we are at it, this .docx always makes the window black, so maybe it will help you fix the black window issue (it is only a one-page document, so it will make things easier to fix).

[FredKruse]

@marcoagpinto I'm very sorry, but I can't reproduce the bug. I did exact what you did in the video. There was no problem (I don't speak Portuguese, but there was definitely a suggestion). The difference in the log file are:

• You use Windows 11 - I had run it on my Windows 10 test system (usually a use Linux). I don't think this could be a problem.
• We use the same java version
• In your log file, there is a very strange version number for LibreOffice (LibreOffice 24.2.0.1 (The Document Foundation), en-GB). I use 7.6.4.1. What version do you use?

I'm a little helpless and don't know what I can do.

[marcoagpinto]

@FredKruse

I am using LibreOffice prerelease 24.2.0.1, downloadable from LibreOffice's site.

[marcoagpinto]

or what they call RC1 (release candidate 1).

The new versioning on LibreOffice: 2024 February.

[FredKruse]

OK, I think I got it. Now, I had tested the bug with LO Version 24.2.0.1 and could reproduce the problem (with 7.6.4 .2 the check works correct). I did many tests and look what happened. LT gives back the right error when you do a right mouse click. It seems to be a problem with LO 24.2.0.1. It doesn't show the correct context menu, although the grammar checker gives an error back. Would you like to provide feedback to the LO team?

@FredKruse We have a developer who works in LibreOffice, I can't remember his name.

He helped create a fix for that bug that used to eat all RAM.

Let me try to find his name.

[marcoagpinto]

It is @mikekaganski

Mike, would you mind helping us with this for LO 24.2.0.1?

Thanks!

[marcoagpinto]

Ohhhh… Mike lives in Russia, so I don't know about his current condition… Just like Yakov, who never appeared again on GitHub.

Please file it in LibreOffice bug tracker.

A related change is https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/155890 ; it was for Impress/Calc.

[mikekaganski]

Thank you Marco! But please don't create stubs like "Here is the bug; go to another site to read some long-ish discussion to try to understand what it is about". Bug tracker issue should be self-contained, have clear problem description, and clear steps to repro. Thanks!

[marcoagpinto]

Ahhhh... sorry.

[marcoagpinto]

Done!

[FredKruse]

@marcoagpinto Could we close this issue?
