Description: It was intended to include some symbols or emoticons in a typed text by using the "Replace - With" function of the AutoCorrect -Tool within its Sub-Menu. When trying to chose any item the submenu window extends simultaneously when moving the mouse pointer or using "arrow-up" / "arrow-down" keys. Steps to Reproduce: 1. reported behavior occurs with tested language setting in English (UK) and German 2. click through main menu bar ->Tools ->AutoCorrect ->AutoCorrect Options 3. any action under submenu "Replace". "Exeptions" or "Options" => when moving mouse pointer or choosing menu item with keyboard arrow-keys "up" or "down" the AutoCorrect-windows gets bigger and bigger. Actual Results: When trying to choose a certain symbol or emoticon the AutoCorrect-window expands and overruns the size of the computerscreen quickly. One can close this submenu-window finally just by using the Escape-key or via command "close / schließen" underneath the three lines button within the upper left. Expected Results: Instead of permanent increase of the AutoCorrect-Window it should be possible to chose the requested items easily. AND: It would be nice if one can enlarge the chosen symbols for better view.

Can't confirm current Windows build of master against 24.8, the Autocorrect window does not grow/change in size in response to mouse of cursor key movements.

Just started a 2nd search and found Bug 151452: --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151452 The strange behavior of the AutoCorrect sub-window seems to be a specific Linux problem?
I cannot confirm it on Version: 24.2.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: db4def46b0453cc22e2d0305797cf981b68ef5ac CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded and Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 6a064b1967e06e40be40817deff99d00c1a8554f CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded The window size does not change for me.
