Demo file

Windows XP SP3
LibreOffice 3.5.6.2 
Build ID: e0fbe70-5879838-a0745b0-0cd1158-638b327

To reproduce problem:-

enable and install "Install files for complex script and right to left languages ..." in Windows OS.

In LanguageBar->settings, add languages "Sanskrit", "Bengali", "Kannada", and Keyboard layout "INSCRIPT" for each one of them.

Open a blank Presentation

Click on title, choose "SA" from Language bar and INSCRIPT Keyboard layout

Type 'a' 

choose "BN" from Language bar and INSCRIPT Keyboard layout

Type 'a'

choose "KN" from Language bar and INSCRIPT Keyboard layout

Type 'a'; results in empty box.

Please check if this bug is reproducible with the latest stable release (4.0.x) as 3.5.x line is in EndOfLife state.
Comment 2 Floater 2013-05-03 07:35:28 UTC
Tested with Version 4.0.0.3 (Build ID: 7545bee9c2a0782548772a21bc84a9dcc583b89)

The Bug has got worse.


Type 3 'a' keys with SA (Sanskrit INSCRIPT) keyboard. Change the Kryboard to KA (Kannada) type key 'a'. The displayed text gets scrambled and more so with second  'a'.

Regards
Floater

@Floater
1- I have reverted version from 4.1.0.4 to 3.5.6.2
please note that the version field should always indicate the earliest release where the issue appears which is 3.5.6.2 according to your first post.

2- basically the bug is that the 2nd letter changes aspect after entering other letters... I tested the demo .odp file and I see that you cancel the 3rd letter the 2nd one changes aspect. so I think issue is confirmed. setting status to NEW.

3- is this issue happening just in Impress text boxes or does it affects digiting such asian letters in Writer as well?
Comment 9 Floater 2013-08-23 09:27:31 UTC
I now have 4.1.0.4. The issue is only present in Impress and not in writer.

Bug remains
Comment 16 ⁨خالد حسني⁩ 2018-05-23 21:13:40 UTC
Can someone please clarify what is the exact bug here? Inputting characters results in non-nonsensical string, or that the string is correct but the rendering is bad?
