Description monster.frankenstein 2011-09-27 21:34:23 UTC

Problem description: 
A text box is selected, copied, pasted. and then the pasted copy is moved around.  The pasted copy of the box initially overlaps the original box, so it's not always apparent that anything was pasted (this by itself is not the bug of concern; it is more or less cosmetic).  Pressing the arrow keys will then move the new text box away from the original spot, revealing that there are now two identical text boxes.  In normal operation, the user would repeatedly press the arrow keys until the box arrives at its new location on the slide.  Instead, either immediately after pasting, or while moving the new box around with the arrow keys, the system suddenly locks up.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select a text box or multiple text boxes
2. Ctrl-C to copy
3. Ctrl-V to paste
4. Repeatedly press the down arrow to move the newly pasted text to a different location on the slide.  (or hold the down arrow key momentarily)

Current behavior:
Following the steps will (at random) result in a complete system hang.  Mouse pointer can move around, but the system is otherwise unresponsive, and the processor heats up.

Expected behavior:
This sequence of operations should work without risk of a crash.

I do not reproduce the crash with LO 3.4.5 (ubuntu build) nor LO 3.5.0 rc1+ under Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64.
Please could you try with current release 3.4.5 ?

Best regards. JBF
