Description: Hello Calc Team When copying or cutting cells sometimes LibreOffice Calc crashes on macOS 14.5. I see this happening in the last few weeks, I am now on version 24.2.4.2, but don't know when the last update happened, so maybe some previous minor versions could be affected. Yesterday I finally systematically tried to eliminate variables: - The crash is unrelated to the actual spreadsheet content, it happens even on an empty spreadsheet that hasn't been saved to disk yet in a fresh process. - The copied cells can be empty too. - There is no pasting required, the copying alone triggers the issue. - Cutting and copying behave the same w.r.t. to this crash - Moving cells with drag crashes in the same way, I assume this is a "cut" under the hood. The most minimal reproduction steps I could identify: - Start LibreOffice - Click File->New->Spreadsheet - Select A1, copy the cell - Select B1:C1, copy the cell range - Select D1, copy the cell --> Immediately the software crashes. No crash reporter opens, but the Document Recovery dialogue appears and says that LibreOffic crashed. It tells me that Untitled 1 will be recovered. - The crash happens if I use command+C to copy, but also if I right click and click copy. - The crash happens with mouse or with keyboard selection of the cells. - Copying many single cells into the buffer does not trigger the crash. - Copying many cell ranges into the buffer does not trigger the crash. - Only the order of single cell copy (one or multiple), then cell range copy (one or multiple), then single cell copy triggers it. I hope someone with an established community reputation has a macOS device and can reproduce. Finally here is my detailed version info: Version: 24.2.4.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 51a6219feb6075d9a4c46691dcfe0cd9c4fff3c2 CPU threads: 16; OS: macOS 14.5; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: osx Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded PS: I have first contributed with my reproduction steps to the thread at https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/crashes-in-24-2-4/106728/22. I believe that at least one or two people in that discussion observe the same issue I describe. Best regards, Joel Busch Network Engineer at AS559 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start LibreOffice 2. Click File->New->Spreadsheet 3. Select A1, copy the cell 4. Select B1:C1, copy the cell range 5. Select D1, copy the cell Actual Results: Immediately the software crashes. No crash reporter opens, but the Document Recovery dialogue appears and says that LibreOffic crashed. It tells me that Untitled 1 will be recovered. Expected Results: The copy buffer should contain the empty cell D1 and Calc should continue to run. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: - The crash is unrelated to the actual spreadsheet content, it happens even on an empty spreadsheet that hasn't been saved to disk yet in a fresh process. - The copied cells can be empty too and it will still crash. - There is no pasting required, the copying alone triggers the issue. - Cutting and copying behave the same w.r.t. to this crash - Moving cells with drag crashes in the same way, I assume this is a "cut" under the hood. - The crash happens if I use command+C to copy, but also if I right click and click copy. - The crash happens with mouse or with keyboard selection of the cells. - Copying many single cells into the buffer does not trigger the crash. - Copying many cell ranges into the buffer does not trigger the crash. - Only the order of single cell copy (one or multiple), then cell range copy (one or multiple), then single cell copy triggers it.
