Description Arthur Carter 2024-06-18 00:09:51 UTC
Description:
Shortly after opening a Calc document, when I attempt to EDIT (COPY) the content of a single cell, the app crashes. This happens roughly 5 mins after the document has been opened and after several similar edits have been made. Immediately after the app crashes, a "Recovery" window pops up and the file can be recovered intact. This is happening consistently since the last version update. 

(I am using an Apple Macbook Air) 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open existing Calc document
2.Make some routine format edits (which occur)
3.Attempt to make another format edit by copying the content of one cell.

Actual Results:
The app crashes. It only crashes when attempting to COPY the content of a cell. Then a Recovery window opens automatically showing the file name that crashes. By clicking on the file name, the file re-opens at the same place prior to the crash. 

Expected Results:
The recovered file works fine until the same crash occurs again... about 5 mins later. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
It should not crash when attempting to COPY the content of any cell in the spreadsheet.

I just reset my User Profile, then reopened the file in Safe Mode, and tested to see if the bug would repeat. It did repeat shortly after doing several format edits as it did before resetting my User Profile.

Update: the fix for this bug is now available for Mac App Store version of LibreOffice:

https://apps.apple.com/app/libreoffice/id1630474372

If you bought LibreOffice in the Mac App Store, you can get the fix by opening the App Store application on your Mac and selecting the Store > Updates menu item.

Unfortunately, the fix is not yet available in an official release from the LibreOffice website. But a new LibreOffice version is expected to be released sometime later this month (July 2024). I will post an update when the LibreOffice website has the new version.
