            Bug ID: 142852
           Summary: KMFL characters are not "swallowed" in a Writer
                    textbox or shapeText
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.0.0.beta1+
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

In Writer, using kmfl which works by DeleteSurrounding, the composing
characters that are supposed to be deleted in an editeng textbox or shape are
not deleted.

This started in LO 7.1 with commit b9405fbc4e19901c78d136895c5ab0437d8450ac
Author: Caolán McNamara on Sun Oct 25 15:27:58 2020 +0000
    Resolves: tdf#137620 add DeleteSurroundingText at vcl::Window level

See bug 137620 comment 0 about setting up kmfl/ibus, and to see what this issue
is about in general.

Steps to reproduce (with kmfl / GE.kmn enabled)
1.) Insert textbox
2.) In the textbox, type ";n", or ";;~a".
The composing characters should be removed, leaving on the complex character
"ŋ" or "ä̃".


P.S. That fix solved the same problem for draw comments (bug 96805 comment 9)
and Writer tables (bug 137620 comment 23) among others, so make sure to test
any changes against at least those two.
