            Bug ID: 140970
           Summary: Usability: Trying to Add user-defined document
                    property quits dialog when trying to enter 'A'
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: Ulrich.Windl at rz.uni-regensburg.de

Trying to reproduce some older issue, I found this one (for German language):
When I tried to add the user-defined property "Arbeit", the following happened.
I opened File->Properties ("Eigenschaften" in German), then user-defined
properties ("Benutzerdefinierte Eigenschaften").
The I pressed "Eigenschaft hinzufügen" (add property).
A new entry ("Name", "Art", "Wert" (name, type, value) appears BUT the input
focus is NOT on "Name" (as users might expect).
As soon as I type 'A' (Shift+a), the whole dialog closes!
That seems true because of those three issues:
1) The focus is not on the new input field(s)
2) "Abbrechen" (abort) has 'A' as hot key
3) Shift+a, and not ALt+A (or Alt+Shift+a) triggers the abort.

All in all just bad usability.
