Description Mark C 2022-12-09 02:18:05 UTC
Description:
This is 100% reproducible.  It is more an annoyance than a major problem.

I use Calc all the time so this is done with calc.  How to reproduce:

1. Save your document.
2. While the saving is in progress, select File > Recent Documents.
3. You will see an empty list.
4. Wait for the save to complete.
5. Now go to File > Recent Documents -- you will see the expected list!

screenshots are attached.

Please test with a clean profile, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode

Comment 5 Mark C 2023-06-08 05:45:46 UTC
Okay.  I did the Help>Menu>Restart in safe mode.

I followed the steps I documented.   This time I used the ppt equivalent (I think you call it Draw).

I observed EXACTLY the same issue.

Reproduced.

I couldn't really try it on Windows, it didn't seem to let me open the menu. On Linux I used a debug build to delay saving.
