Screenshot illustrating the issue

After reporting another bug, I returned to the document I was editing and clicked on resume in the Spell & Grammar dialog.

I then clicked on a replacement word in the list, and was the dialog returned to the Resume state as shown in the screenshot.

The loop continued until I closed the dialog and re-started.

Please note that this is a regular occurrence (the looping...)

not reproducible with LO 3.6.4.3. (Win7 Home, 64bit)

Please inform about the necessary steps if this bug still exists.

I happened with master too, but I haven't got how to reproduce it.
Comment 3 Urmas 2013-04-06 05:29:28 UTC
How to reproduce this:
1. During spellcheck, make a correction below in the document;
2. Click 'Resume' button;
3. If you click anywhere in text window or in suggestion list, the dialog will be disabled again and Resume button will be active;
Comment 4 A (Andy) 2013-04-27 20:37:18 UTC
Thanks for the hint.

now it is for me reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit)

Steps done:
1. Write any US English text with a mistake (typing error)
2. Start the US English spell check (TOOLS -> SPELLING AND GRAMMAR)
3. When the spell check finds this buggy word, then select with the mouse pointer this word in the document and correct it manually
4. Afterwards, click into the SPELLING AND GRAMMAR dialog and everything besides RESUME, HELP, OPTIONS and CLOSED is disabled and now press RESUME
-> Now the spell check still shows the typing error which was already corrected manually (-> buggy behavior)
5a. Now you have to press IGNORE ONCE twice and the issue finished


Further Other Issue: Instead of 5a. do the following:

5b. Click again anywhere in the text and then go back to the dialog, then the RESUME option is shown again
6b. Press RESUME
7b. Now click again anywhere in the text
-> Result: The RESUME option is shown again (all the time for the manually corrected word) and this is an endless loop if go on with the steps 5b - 7b

Comment 9 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-03-31 13:22:42 UTC
The two issues described in comment 4 could not be reproduced for me on Linux in 6.0 or 7.1.
There is however a similar one that crept up on Linux with GTK VCL, reported in bug 138815.

Maybe this here is Windows-specific.
Retesting in the recently released version 7.5.2 would be appreciated.
Comment 10 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-04-02 15:27:58 UTC
I could not reproduce in:

Version: 7.4.6.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 5b1f5509c2decdade7fda905e3e1429a67acd63d
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR); UI: fr-FR
Calc: threaded

Given that the most recent reproduction of this issue is from late 2014, and that I can't reproduce in a recent version, I am closing as Works For Me.
I you can still reproduce in 7.4 or more recent on Windows, please feel free to reopen.
