Description hdiaros 2024-10-22 14:02:32 UTC
Description:
The AutoCorrect ‘replace’ tab is blank in Libreoffice Writer v24.2.5, it doesn't show anything, not even the default.

If I reinstall a previous version 7.6.5. I get back all the words I have added in AutoCorrect ‘replace’ tab and the default ones.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Writer 7.6.5. -> Open AutoCorrect tab ‘replace’ and add new words for AutoCorrect.
2.Update Libreoffice v24.2.5.
3.Writer 24.2.5. -> Open AutoCorrect tab ‘replace’ shows nothing.

Actual Results:
It does not replace words I type with the ones I have added in AutoCorrect.

Expected Results:
It replaces automatically when I type


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
If I rollback to Writer 7.6.5. it works.
