Hang when changing font while there is uncommitted text in a Writer comment #3

Closed plubius closed 2 years ago

When entering text in a Writer comment and the entered text is uncommitted, changing the font in Writer's font dropdown list will cause the macOS input method to go into an infinite loop.

I can reproduce this bug on macOS 12.3.1 with the following system input methods:

Hiragana:entering "a" repeatedly
Canjie -Traditional entering "p" repeatedly

This bug was originally reported in LibreOffice issue 82115.

Correction: my steps to reproduce were incomplete. Here are the correct steps:

Hiragana:entering "a" 3 times, change font, press "a" again, NeoOffice hangs
Canjie -Traditional entering "p" 3 times, change font, press "p" again, NeoOffice hangs

Attached is Sample of NeoOffice Developer Build.txt taken in the Activity Monitor application. At first glance, it looks like there is an infinite loop in the LibreOffice code, not the macOS input method:
