Description Oliver Grimm 2019-12-03 10:38:45 UTC
Description:
sorting multiple rows in calc leads to all LO windows not responding and possible data loss.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a new calc file
2. select rows 1-3 with the mouse
3. select "Data | Sort" from main menu

Actual Results:
- Calc hangs with 100% CPU load
- all open LO windows become irresponsive
- required killing of Calc window leads to possible data loss in this and other running LO instances (including Writer, Impress ...)

Expected Results:
sorting with multiple rows selected should work just fine


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Thank you for testing on your machine.

I just found out that that this bug ONLY occurs in Wayland sessions.
The bug does NOT occur in XOrg sessions.

Can someone please try to reproduce on Linux in a Wayland session?

Do you reproduce it if you launch LibreOffice from commandline like 'SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen soffice' ?
Comment 4 Oliver Grimm 2019-12-12 09:41:06 UTC
no. With 'SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen soffice' the bug does not occur.
Comment 5 Oliver Grimm 2019-12-13 20:39:44 UTC
in addition, NO bug with VCL kde5:

Version: 6.3.3.2.0+
Build-ID: 1:6.3.3-3
CPU-Threads: 2; BS: Linux 5.3; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: kde5; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI-Sprache: de-DE
Calc: threaded

so far, the bug only occurs with "Linux Gnome3 Wayland".
Comment 6 Xisco Faulí 2020-01-20 12:07:50 UTC
You can't confirm your own bugs. Moving it back to UNCONFIRMED until someone
else confirms it.

Hi Caolán,
In case you are using Wayland, do you reproduce it on your end ?
