Description Terrence Enger 2016-11-01 18:56:06 UTC
Menu Tables advertises <Ctrl>+<F12> to insert a table.  However this
key combination has no visible result.

I see this in daily Linux dbgutil bibisect repository version
2016-10-31 and in 43-all bibisect repository version oldest running on
debian-stretch.  I thought I remembered this shortcut working once,
but maybe I am dreaming.  For comparison, the shortcut does work in
Windows daily built 2016-10-31.
Comment 1 Regina Henschel 2016-11-01 22:17:29 UTC
It works for me with Version: 5.3.0.0.alpha1+

Please look in menu Table the first item "Insert Table". Which shortcut keys are listed there?

I can't reproduce it in gtk/gtk3 in

Comment 3 Xisco Faulí 2016-11-02 09:28:05 UTC
I can't reproduce it in daily Linux dbgutil bibisect repository version 2016-09-18 too. Could you please check the menu as mentioned in comment 1 ? Setting to NEEDINFO meanwhile...
Comment 4 Terrence Enger 2016-11-03 14:50:19 UTC
If I navigate the menus, I can insert a table withou any problem.  Is
that what you are asking, Xisco?

I should have said that I am using Xfce.  Perhaps that makes a
difference.

Looking in the Xfce keyboard settings, I do not see that <Ctrl>+<F12>
is being mapped to anything.
Comment 5 A. Barbosa 2016-11-05 20:55:33 UTC
I can reproduce it in xubuntu 16.04 using libreoffice ppa (version 1:5.2.3~rc2-0ubuntu1~xenial1 )
I have ctrl+f12 listed as shortcut but it doesn't work. Menu entry works fine.
Comment 6 Terrence Enger 2016-12-07 02:36:13 UTC
The bug is apparent in debian-stretch 64-bit on xfce desktop in LO
version 5.2.3.3 as distributed with debian-stretch and daily dbgutil
bibisect repository version 2016-12-06.

Based on comment 5, I am setting bug status NEW.  If I have left any
questions unanswered, please ask me again.

Comment 11 Roman Kuznetsov 2019-01-26 12:34:54 UTC
it possible system settings for shortcuts makes shortcuts in LibreOffice unusable.

In Kubuntu 18.10 Ctrl+F12 just shows me Desktop instead any actions inside LibreOffice

I use plasma and when I disable the "keyboard shortcut" for "show desktop" in system sittings for plasma. 
the shortcut in LO office and the dialog is shown just like if I press the menu entry in 'Table>insert table'
Comment 14 Terrence Enger 2021-03-20 23:42:34 UTC
I still see the bug in a local build of commit 005adbef (2021-03-18)
built and running on debian-buster with xfce desktop.

Considering that others do not see the problem and that there is an
obvious workaround, I am setting bug status RESOLVED INSUFFICIENTDATA.
