Pre-requisites: 1. Install KDE4 integration ('libreoffice-kde' package in Fedora\Debian\Ubuntu), and make sure you're actually using it (by running under KDE or by exporting 'SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=kde4'). 2. Enable CTL\Asian support (Tools->Options...->Language Settings->Languages). Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Writer. 2. Go to Format->Character... (3. Switch to 'Font' tab if it was opened with another tab.) 4. Click on one of the combo-boxes (Family\Style\Size). Results: Font Family combo-box gets wider with each click, making the other combo-boxes impossible to use. Tested with: 4.1.3.2 under Ubuntu 13.10 (64-bit) & Fedora 19 (64-bit) master build (with --enable-kde4, Build ID: 93210ec3b3e7e773e998a3771136043748232f85)
Reproducible with 4.1.4~rc2 andkde 4.12 kubuntu 12.04-32 Not present in 4.2.0 rc1, IF libobasis4.2-kde-integration is equivalent of libreoffice-kde (otherwise my test with 4.2 is meaningless). Can't bibisect since related to kde integration
Hi Marco, thanks for confirming this bug! (In reply to comment #1) > Not present in 4.2.0 rc1, IF libobasis4.2-kde-integration is equivalent of > libreoffice-kde (otherwise my test with 4.2 is meaningless). libobasis4.2-kde-integration is for KDE3, not for KDE4. See Bug 48611.
Ah, very bad I do use KDE and deploy to schools, bug 48611 looks a problem and I'm wondering how can we reliable test LiBo with KDE if it's integration with KDE itself is left to the good will of distro packagers, probably with code out of control from Libo devs.
(In reply to comment #3) > probably with code out of control from Libo devs. Why out of control? The KDE4 integration code is actually stored in LO code repository, it just not builded\distributed with the official builds.
I think that I found the right solution for this bug. I submitted it to gerrit: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/7287/. It should also fix Bug 73103.
