[Bug 917262] Re: LibreOffice crashes when editing a field in an XLM Form Document (xforms)

 

The problem isn't limited to the tutorial, however. I first noticed the
problem when trying to create my own xml Form document from scratch.

Here I've attached a file with nothing but one field. Double-click it in
design mode and LibreOffice crashes. In other words, I can't create any
xml forms.

** Attachment added: "New XML Form Document with nothing but one text field just created. Crashes when openning control or double clicking field."

Title:
  LibreOffice crashes when editing a field in an XLM Form Document
  (xforms)

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Trying to edit a text box or field in an XLM Forms Document by double
  clicking or any other method brings up a blank dialogue box. Clicking
  on the dialogue box greys out LibreOffice writer in the background and
  all of LibreOffice becomes unresponsive. No matter how long I wait,
  forcequit is the only way out.

  Please see the attached screen-shot of the blank dialogue and hung
  LibreOffice writer.

  After forcequiting, trying to edit a text box or field in xforms
  crashes LibreOffice - instant forcequit.

  When first trying to report this bug, ubuntu-bug showed that I didn't
  have LibreOffice installed. After installing LibreOffice, the instant
  forcequit/crash problem went away, but LibreOffice hung again when
  trying to edit a text box.

  After forcequiting again using xkill (just now while writing this), I
  couldn't re-open LibreOffice until I stopped processes libreoffice and
  soffice in system-monitor.

  Now LibreOffice once again instantly crashes/forcequits whenever I
  double-click on a text box or field.
