[Bug 1737429] Re: LyX crashes when undoing an advanced search-replace

 

Christopher, thank you very much for taking the time to report this
issue and to give details on how to reproduce. I've tried several times
and I cannot reproduce. Can you make a screencast? If not, please answer
the following questions: After writing "ccc", do you put the cursor at
the top? Or after you search you first click on "Yes" in the "wrap
search" dialog? Do you do the search before you click in the replace box
and type "\abc"? Do you do anything (e.g. click in the main text area?)
after you make the substitution and before you execute the ctrl-z? If
you do ctrl-z with the cursor in the advanced find, then it undoes the
last edit to the advanced find window. If you do it in the main
workarea, it undoes the substitution.

Are you able to reproduce while running LyX from gdb? Can you post a
backtrace?

Title:
  LyX crashes when undoing an advanced search-replace

Status in LyX:
  New
Status in lyx package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Open a new document. Type content as follows:

  aaa
  bbb
  ccc

  Then open the Advanced Search-Replace dialog (under edit), and search
  for "bbb". In the replace box, write "\abc" inside an ERT (red) box.

  Make the substitution. Now try to undo the operation (ctrl-z).  LyX
  repeatably crashes /dies completely at this point.
