Description Sigrid Mortensen 2023-11-13 17:59:51 UTC
Description:
LibreOffice Base (version 7.6.2.1) crashes consistently if I try to resize a table display in the Form editor by clicking and dragging a handle. It also crashes (or sometimes hangs) if I try to move the table by dragging. Hence, the only way to move or resize the table is through the properties dialog.

I am using a MacBook Pro with an Apple M1 Max chip, running Ventura 13.4.1.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a form in design view.
2.Add a table to the form.
3.Attempt to drag a corner to resize.

Actual Results:
LibreOffice immediately crashes.

Expected Results:
Should have allowed me to drag the table to move or resize it.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
I tried opening LibreOffice in Safe Mode and the problem disappeared (while in Safe Mode). However, every time I reopened LibreOffice after opening in Safe Mode, the splash screen would flash repeatedly without the application opening all the way. (I had to force quit.) The only way to get LiberOffice to open again was to rename my user folder so it was recreated. This happened several times. Once back in LibreOffice (not in safe mode), the problem returned.

Thank you for the report, Sigrid.
I could reproduce in:

Version: 7.6.2.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 56f7684011345957bbf33a7ee678afaf4d2ba333
CPU threads: 2; OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: osx
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

My steps:
1. Open Writer
2. Form > Table control, trace the control on page
3. Choose Bibliography as a Data Source, biblio as a Table, click "Next"
4. Include some field (I chose the first 4), click "Finish"
5. Resize the table

Result: crash

No repro with:
- 7.5.4.2 on macOS -> regression
- 7.6.3.1 on Linux -> maybe macOS-only
