Description: I use the LibreOffice flatpak (v. 26.2.2.2) on Linux Mint (22.3 Cinnamon edition). When I use the GroupedBar Compact or Tabbed Compact user interfaces in Calc, and select the spell check icon in the ribbon, the application crashes. This does not happen with other user interfaces; nor does it crash when I hit F7 to launch the spell check. In the Linux Mint forum, another user has confirmed they see the same behaviour. In the LibreOffice community forum, another user has found the same issue in Windows EXCEPT that the crash only occurs in the Tabbed Compact interface (NOT the GroupedBar Compact interface). Please can this be fixed? Steps to Reproduce: 1. In Linux, select either the GroupedBar Compact or the Tabbed Compact UI. 2. In the Review tab, select the spelling icon. 3. Calc will immediately crash. Actual Results: Calc crashed and offered to recover my document. Expected Results: The spell check dialogue should have opened, as it does when you press F7. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 26.2.2.2 (flatpak) Build: https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/1f77d10d6938fd34972958f64b2bcfa54f8b1ba5 Environment: CPU threads: 4, OS: Linux 6.8 User Interface: UI render: default, VCL: GTK3
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today + gtk3 rendering, I don't reproduce this. Clicking on "Spelling" icon doesn't crash. I also tried with LO 26.2.2 Debian package, no crash. What language UI do you use? Do you use a specific spelling dictionary?

I just use the default English dictionary that was initialised with the Flatpak. Others have found this issue, see Linux Mint forum posts here: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2773074#p2773074
You indicated you reset your LO profile so no corrupted profile here. Do you use a specific file to reproduce this? I mean, if you just launch Calc (with Tabbed Compact) (and so you're on a brand file) and click on the icon, do you get the crash or you must open a specific file? Would it be possible you attach a backtrace? (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport/Debug_Information#GNU/Linux:_How_to_get_a_backtrace). Do you have any console logs? Indeed, since I can't reproduce the bug, all extra info may help.

I can answer the first question: it happens on any file, at any time I press the F7 button. It was the same for the person on the Linux Mint forum. I'll try to work out how to do a backtrace, but this really isn't my specialist subject.

I'm sorry, but the backtrace instructions leave me bemused. I'm just a casual user, sorry.

Sorry - I meant "when I press the spelling icon", not "when I press the F7 button". The video link I sent will show you what I mean.
Created attachment 206856 [details] bt Thank you for the video, I could reproduce this so I attached a backtrace.
My fault, the pb was I had tested "Tabbed" option instead of "Tabbed Compact". Sorry for this.
I've submitted a patch here for master sources: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/204551 With it, I don't reproduce the crash anymore with GroupedBar Compact or Tabbed Compact user interfaces. Let's wait for some feedback.
Fantastic - thank you! I know it's a very minor bug, but it has been annoying me for quite a long time now. It will be great to see it fixed.

Does that mean we have to wait until August until the Flatpak is updated? Sorry if that's a stupid question!
For the moment, the patch is available for future 26.8.0. According to https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/26.8, the release will be at the end of August. Someone has cherry-picked the patch to integrate it in 26.2 branch. If this patch is pushed, it might be for 26.2.4 release at the beginning of June (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/26.2). Now about Flatpak, I've got no idea since I never use Flatpak.

I've cherry-picked the patch for 26.2.3 here: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/204593 I don't know if it'll be accepted but since the 26.2.3 released is planned in the next days (see release plan from my previous comment), it's perhaps too late. Anyway, to fix the bug, I can't do more here. There's only some cleaning remaining.
Thanks for all your help - much appreciated!
