Description: If the font is switched from one to another and the font name is typed in the field at the top, the font name is auto-completed. The first suggested font stays as auto-completion and is not replaced or updated by newly typed letters. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a document 2. Change the font name by typing the font name in box in the header bar Actual Results: Font name is auto-completed with the first match in the list, but is not updated when following characters do not match the typed font name Expected Results: The suggested font name is auto-completed, but updates when it no longer matches the user input. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Because it is not working well, the auto-completion actually hinders the workflow much more compared to it not existing at all.

Hello, is it correct video?

(In reply to raal from comment #2) > Hello, is it correct video? It was the wrong video from a different bug. Thanks for the heads up. I already uploaded the correct video.
Created attachment 203857 [details] LibreOffice Writer - Bug 169105 - auto completed search updated incorrectly I saw that the same problem applies to the search field. When you search for a value (eg. "Hello World") the text is auto completed next time when you type "Hello" even when you actually want to write "Hello Test". This is rather annoying when you have several search entries that slightly differ at the end of the search term
The font name auto-correct is working as it should on Windows. No reproduce Version: 25.8.2.2 (X86_64) Build ID: d401f2107ccab8f924a8e2df40f573aab7605b6f CPU threads: 32; OS: Windows 11 X86_64 (build 26100); UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: win Locale: en-US (en_US); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded
(In reply to jcline from comment #6) > The font name auto-correct is working as it should on Windows. No reproduce I also couldn't reproduce it on my Windows machine. It seems to be a Linux bug (that's why I did set the hardware information accordingly)
Bibisected with linux-64-7.0 to 2e0a32b51681fb356699b4a722f461f55a46b890 weld FontNameBox Only affects gtk3 UI.
I find the video more confusing than explanatory. In some cases it looks like typing begins, a suggestion is offered and then there is a click outside the combobox so it resets to its contents before the editing began, which is expected. I think we always did that. Are you pressing return/enter at the end of typing the font name? On the other hand, at 0:20 "Sans" is selected, at 0:21 "Sans" is not highlighted and content inserts between "S" and "ans". For me if I select "Sans" and type "S" I get "ans" highlighted/selected and when I type "e" after that then it auto-completes to Serif with "rif" highlighted/selected so what I experience doesn't seem to match. Maybe there is a momentary tooltip firing and stealing focus away, and that loses the selection, and then focus is restored, so the cursor is between letters after that, the same as if you explicitly click between them @Buovjaga are you reproducing with this gtk under kde setup, or gtk under gnome? Is there a difference between these two, or am I just failing to see the obvious.
(In reply to Caolán McNamara from comment #9) > @Buovjaga are you reproducing with this gtk under kde setup, or gtk under > gnome?

I don't move the focus out.
