Description: I noticed interference between comments and track changes in files. Once text is marked with a comment, adding text during track change will lead to the text disappearing. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open new writer document 2. Write some text 3. Mark the text aand press 'Insert comment' 4. activate track changes (show changes) 5. Try to write in marked text (or outside) 6. Any written text will disappear immediately Actual Results: new text disappears Expected Results: new text should be shown. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Sometimes it works as expected, but mostly it doesn't.
Created attachment 157004 [details] odt document demonstrating the bug Try to write in the middle of the marked text. The text should disappear immediately.

I can't confirm it with Version: 6.5.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: e26d89371f0e4f41476c9a99be01d98dedb76776 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: default; VCL: win; Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB Calc: threaded and also not with Version: 6.3.4.2 (x64) Build-ID: 60da17e045e08f1793c57c00ba83cdfce946d0aa CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Windows 10.0; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: win; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Sprache: de-DE Calc: threaded To be certain the reported issue is not related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your Libreoffice profile (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile) and re-test? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present
I can reproduce it on a different ubuntu system with a clean user profile. libreoffice --safe-mode --> continue in safe mode. Version: 6.3.4.2 Build ID: 1:6.3.4-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo2 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.0; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded It seems that it happens when the track change menu in the sidebar is open and it affects text that is written 'before' the comment.
Created attachment 157018 [details] Screenrecord for reproduction. See above.
I noticed that one doesn't need the comment. So it just seems to be a problem with the first comment when the track change sidebar is open.
Changed the title to reflect what I found. Cannot be reproduced in 6.4 AppImage
(In reply to mace from comment #8) > Cannot be reproduced in 6.4 AppImage So perhaps problem has already been resolved. Can we change status to RESOLVED WORKSFOMRE? Of course it is possible to reopen the bug, if it happens again.
I changed to WORKSFORME but will keep an eye open in future releases.
