            Bug ID: 138528
           Summary: When I type ö using the ASCII code, instead of
                    appearing where I typed it, it appears before the
                    previous character.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gebuscher at gmail.com

Description:
I type in different languages, including German, and use ASCII codes to produce
accented characters. Until recently, this presented no problem,but recently
whenever I need to use the character ö (i.e. o with an Umlaut) and use the
ASCII code (Alt+148), the resulting character does not appear where I typed it
but jumps over the preceding character, sometimes taking with it all the
characters I type after it e.g. örterW rather than the correct form Wörter. If
the character comes at the beginning of a word in a sequence of words, it
replaces the preceding space, e.g. ich geheöfters rather than the correct ich
geheöfters.
The exact result depends on the position of the character in the text, as
illustrated in the examples below


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type: W(ALT+148)rter
2. Type: die W(ALT+148)er 
3. Type: ich gehe (ALT+148)fters 

whecre (ALT+148)represents the ASCII character in question, i.e do not type the
brackets. 

Actual Results:
1. örterW
2. die örterW
3. ich geheöfters

Expected Results:
1. Wörter
2. die Wörter
3. ich gehe öfters


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:

I am not sure exactly when this problem started - whether it was after I last
downloaded an update (6.4.7.2) or not too long before it.
