When you quickly right-click the context menu after double-clicking a word, Writer sometimes freezes. This is especially common when performing this operation multiple times in quick repetition. Freezing can last from half a second to minutes. Sometimes so long that LibreOffice has to be canceled.
I could not reproduce in: Version: 7.4.6.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 5b1f5509c2decdade7fda905e3e1429a67acd63d CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Can you please share the information copied from Help > About LibreOffice? Thank you.
This is the Information from help/about LO: Version: 6.4.7.2 Build-ID: 1:6.4.7-0ubuntu0.20.04.6 CPU-Threads: 4; BS: Linux 5.4; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: gtk3; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI-Sprache: de-DE Calc: threaded Another Information: During the freeze, one core runs at 100%.
Thank you, Fred. Your version won't see further bug fixes, so please update to a currently supported version: 7.4 or 7.5. Please report back if you can still see the same issue.
not present in Version: 7.5.0.3 (x86) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: c21113d003cd3efa8c53188764377a8272d9d6de CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ro-RO (ro_RO); UI: en-GB Calc: threaded
The bug happens in special cases. I tested it with this Version: Version: 7.5.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 50(Build:2) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: de-DE Ubuntu package version: 4:7.5.1~rc2-0ubuntu0.20.04.1~lo1 Calc: threaded A little hint to the background: I am the actual developer of the LanguageTool extension for LO. The extension adds the additional right spelled words used by LanguageTool as user dictionaries to LO. For German language, these are more than 160,000 words split into 6 user dictionaries. I wrote the dictionaries to files and deactivate the LanguageTool extension, to decouple the extension from LO. The bug remains. It is interesting, that the marking of spell errors works perfectly. It is also no problem to do a right click on marked words. The expected context menu appears immediately. But if you highlight a word or a part of text, and you do a right click on it in nearly one of five cases, it takes a long time (sometimes to minutes) till the context menu appears.

Thank you for the extra information, Fred, but I still haven't been able to reproduce with: Version: 7.5.2.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 53bb9681a964705cf672590721dbc85eb4d0c3a2 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded I am using Ubuntu 20.04 with GNOME 3.36.8. Can you reproduce with other VCLs, for example starting libreoffice with the environment variable SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen ? Which desktop environment are you using?

Usually I work with Linux Mint. But I am able to reproduce the bug working with Windows: Version: 7.5.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: fcbaee479e84c6cd81291587d2ee68cba099e129 CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 22621; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: de-DE Calc: CL threaded To reproduce the bug. I attached some files. There are six dictionaries. Please close LO and add the dictionaries to LOs wordbook directory. After that, open LO again and activate the dictionaries (sorry, they are in German language). After that, open the German test file. Now double-click on an arbitrary word to highlight it. Then right-click on the highlighted word. The context menu opens slowly. Sometimes you have to iterate the clicking sometimes. From my experience, at least the tenth click will slow down the opening of the context menu by minutes.

The context menu that opens has Cut, Copy, Paste... I made sure to activate the dictionaries in writing aids options. I have hunspell-de installed.

With sample files, extra dictionaries in the workbook directory and activated in the UI, and a German dictionary extension installed, I could reproduce a 1+ second delay to several-second freeze when right-clicking. (LT extension not installed.) - right-click does not have to be on selection - right-click does not have to be on misspelt word - could reproduce without an active selection - right-click has to be on German paragraph - not reproduced when right-clicking on English paragraph - could reproduce if cursor is in English paragraph while right-click is on German paragraph Version: 7.6.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 38d5f62f85355c192ef5f1dd47c5c0c0c6d6598b CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Also in 7.5.9, but interestingly I can't reproduce in 7.4.0.3, which doesn't agree with comment 2...
