Description ibelin123 2022-08-28 01:26:04 UTC

Description:
This is a new install on a new Desktop. The yellow “Help Tip” when I enable the “Display remainder of name as suggestion while typing” is not showing. I used to just press “Ctrl+Tab” to advance through my many autotext entries in my other installation. I cannot do this now.

I have reinstalled Libreoffice. I have reset my profile. Copied another profile from another installation. I have checked the language and path settings. Nothing worked.

I have used Libre portable and found this:

6.4.7 working
7.0.6 working
7.1.8 working
7.2.7 not working (my regular installation)
7.3.5 not working



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tools>AutoText
2. Check Display remainder of name as suggestion while typing
3. Close

Actual Results:
Yellow "Help Tip" DOES NOT APPEAR when I enter the first three characters of the autotext

Expected Results:
Yellow "Help Tip" appears when I enter the first three characters of the autotext


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

While searching for a similar problem over the web, I came across a post saying that the yellow "Help Tip" does not also appear in autocomplete. The poster was using Libre 7.3.4.2.

I tried it in my Libre 7.2.7.2 and the yellow "Help Tip" indeed does not also appear in autocomplete.

I tried using Libre portable and found these about the yellow "Help Tip" in AUTOCOMPLETE and AUTOTEXT:

6.4.7 working
7.0.6 working
7.1.8 working
7.2.7 not working (regular installation)
7.3.5 not working

REPRODUCED:

AUTOCOMPLETE is no longer working in version 7

Steps:
1) Mark "autocomplete words" and "show as tip"
2) Write some words, to fill the autocomplete list;
3) Rewrite those words, when is expected the tips to appear;
4) No tip is showed.

Tried on 3 different machines, with same result.

I suggest changing the bug title to include "AUTOCOMPLETE"
