            Bug ID: 114376
           Summary: Grey Spaces Created When I Press SpaceBar While Typing
                    With Biblical Hebrew - Tiro Keyboard In LibreOffice
                    5.3.3.2
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: Other
                OS: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
For my professional work, I require the ability to type advanced Hebrew
diacritical marks offered in the input source of Biblical Hebrew - Tiro. I have
installed ( downloadable as
http://www.sbl-site.org/Fonts/BiblicalHebrewKeyboardsInstallerOSX.zip ; and
found at http://opensiddur.org/help/typing/ at the words "keyboard layout and
install") the input source keyboard of Biblical Hebrew - Tiro onto my MacBook
Pro High Sierra 10.13.2. Whenever I type what should just be a regular space
with the Biblical Hebrew - Tiro keyboard, I end up with a grey quadrangle in
between the Biblical Hebrew words I am typing.
I have posted an example of this error at
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10103610833158202&set=p.10103610833158202&type=3&theater
Please correct such that the Unicode of whatever the spacebar's character is on
the Biblical Hebrew - Tiro keyboard can be read by LibreOffice as a regular
space.
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/search.htm?q=%C2%A0&preview=entity
seems to believe that the space is supposed to be just a regular space.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Biblical Hebrew - tiro.
2. Open word document in LibreOffice.
3. After selecting Biblical Hebrew - tiro as the input source language in
LibreOffice, type space.
4. See what happens.

Actual Results:  
Grey space.

Expected Results:
Just a plain old space: U+00A0 or something of that sort.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This is very important to me and to my work, and I value your work too. I am
going to make a donation quite shortly to LibreOffice because I am amazed by
this word processor. The company (DavkaCorp) behind my favorite Hebrew word
processor is closing this month, and I anticipate that their DavkaWriter
program will soon no longer work after just a few more system updates. I am
trying to learn how to use LibreOffice fast and efficiently to continue the
work that I do, and I have been very impressed so far--with the exception of
this space feature. I look forward to the bug being fixed. Thank you so much.
