Description Kim 2012-04-01 05:02:57 UTC

Steps to reproduce:

0. (Install fresh version of LibreOffice)
1. Start Writer
2. In the default empty document create a new table (dimensions does not appear to matter, I used 4x4)
3. Add a comment anywhere on the page (menu: Insert->Comment). Placing it in the table or outside does not matter.
4. Write some text in the table and notice the behavior of the comment box. It starts to flash/reload/repaint whenever you press a key in the table.

If you add a picture with a caption and add additional comments the slowdown can cause severe performance issues as a result of the flashing/reloading/repainting.

Tested using a freshly installed version of LibreOffice (3.5.1.2). I also saw the error in earlier versions, however I did not record the version numbers.

This seems to have been fixed in 3.6, so issues closed.
