            Bug ID: 122376
           Summary: EDITING Calc locks up when selecting cells for formula
                    across "freeze" boundary
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.7.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jamshark70 at zoho.com

This sequence of events reliably locks up LibO Calc for me.

1. Set up a sheet like this:

Name            Values
A               1       2       3
B               4       5       6
C               7       8       9

2. Go to C2 (value 1).

3. View > Freeze Cells > Freeze Rows and Columns.

4. Go to B2 (empty). This is to the left of the "Freeze Columns" boundary.

5. Type "=sum(" and right-arrow to C2 (which is to the right of the boundary).
It will probably lock up here. If it doesn't, try shift-right-arrow to E3.

At some point during the key sequence in step 5, LibO enters an infinite loop.
The interface locks up and the only option is to kill the program (and hope
that document recovery works -- which it did, actually).

I saw this issue repeatedly in LibO 6.0.4.2. I just upgraded to 6.0.7.3 to see
if it had been fixed, and it's still a problem in this version. I haven't tried
the 6.2 RC (and I'm not a heavy enough LibO user to a lot of time into
installing many versions).
