            Bug ID: 140445
           Summary: Autocorrect works only when pressing return, not when
                    pressing space
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: pezcurrel at tiscali.it

Description:
I have an autocorrect rule to substitute "aaa" with "bbb".
This happens only when I press "return" after the third "a"; if I press
"space", "aaa" doesn't get substituted with "bbb". It's been sometimes since I
last used libreoffice but I can remember autocorrection used to work on "space"
too, as expected.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure "Tools > AutoCorrect > While typing" is active
2. Write a sequence of characters which should be replaced by another sequence
of characters, according to the current replacement table, like "wroet", which
should be replaced by "wrote"
3. Press spacebar

Actual Results:
"wroet" isn't replaced by "wrote"

Expected Results:
"wroet" should be replaced by wrote (it happens, if you press return instead of
space at step 3).


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes
