Description Hermann Rochholz 2019-04-01 18:44:30 UTC
Description:
I have here on Win7 Pro the problem, that the text cannot be marked by the mouse. But this only when I am logged in for a long time. 
Maybe I can reproduce it, too, when I sent my PC for a sleep. 
After reboot everything works fine. Always.

This text here- can be marked. And in my LO text- no way. 
Some weeks ago I completely set up my Laptop NEW.
Therefore I did not reset my profile - before was the same problem.
---------
Now I started Impress: text marking by mouse works.
Now I restarted Writer: This does not work.

Kind regards 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Let PC on for more than an hour
2. Try to mark text. 

Actual Results:
---------

Expected Results:
---------


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Do you remember the oldest version this has happened?

It would be interesting, if you installed an old version in parallel and experimented with it: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage#Step_7:_Regression_Testing
Maybe versions from the 4 and 5 periods.

Hello Hermann Rochholz,
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

Yes- to Problem is still alive. 
Version: 6.2.4.2 (x64)

I do not know how to show you this problem. 
Im am not abolutely shure that it is not my laptop.

On the other hand: Other applications do not show this problem. 
I again reproduced:
LO works fine (not fully correct - have to make a new different bug report NOW). Close my laptop and with this it is going into some energy saving mode (without  dumping these big files). 
Opening the laptop, 
typing my login,
starting LO writer and then it's not possible to mark several characters with my mouse. 
Multiple clicks allow to mark words or sentences.  
But NO single characters. 

If I try this here in www-address of firefox - no problem: umentf is copied out.
This would be NOT possible with LO writer.  

Now I have to restart the Laptop and it works.

Hello Hermann, a new major release of LibreOffice is available since this bug was reported. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

And just for clarificatin, if the bug is still present: It's only a problem with the mouse, that means, you can mark a single character with keyboard, right?
