Created attachment 83813 [details] ODT_Crash_Ctrl_M.odt: crash document Writer freezes with 100% CPU usage when resetting a complete paragraph to standard formatting. OO version: AOO410m18(Build:9764) - Rev. 1589052 2014-04-22 12:11 - Linux x86_64 (official German version from Apache) System: Linux 3.5.0-51-generic #76-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 15 21:19:10 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 12.10) Description: 1. Open ODT_Crash_Ctrl_M.odt. 2. Mark the complete first paragraph after the first table starting "xxkuts" (bold text, 2 lines), including the "invisible" paragraph mark after the last character. 3. Reset to standard formatting using Ctrl + M or menu command. Writer freezes, using 100% CPU. I have to kill the process. Writer will not freeze if you mark only the text contents of the paragraph before pressing Ctrl + M, or if you reset the following paragraph to standard format before touching the bold paragraph.
Confirmed for AOO4.1.0 on Windows 7. It does not hang with build bot version of 4.1.1. @stfhell: End of this week the release candidate of the new version 4.1.1 will be available for download. Please try again with this new version.
This should be fixed in the current release candidate, to be release as 4.1.1 later this month; if you want to try it, download the RC from https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Development+Snapshot+Builds *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 124877 ***
