Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 125803
Pasting short text does not erase display of longer text

Created attachment 84115 [details] example text When modifying an existing document I marked a text at the end of the first line, consiting of 15+ chars. Then I pasted a much shorter text, 8+ chars, to that marked position. Afterwards a part of the just rewritten text still is shown on the screen without marking and but when I press del, these phantom chars vanish at once. This is misleading.
(In reply to Jens611 from comment #0) > example text No! This is not a text but an picture. Understood that is not easy to reproduce without attach a real document?
Created attachment 84117 [details] Text for Investigation Double click on Replace, mark "15. September 2014" and press Shift+Insert. Now a part of the former text is visible. If you press Del now, several unmarked chars disappear.
Comment on attachment 84117 [details] Text for Investigation ... press Ctrl-C after marking Replace ...
OK your title don't explain what you describe. To reproduce: 1) Open the attached document 2) On 8th line, select "Replace" word 3) Copy with Ctrl-C 4) On 1st line, select "15. September 2014" 5) Paste with Ctrl-V Observed behavior: selected text is replaced but artifact of the original text still remains after the paste occurs. Minimize the window and restore it or refresh with Ctrl-Shift-R: artifact will be gone. Tested with last release 4.1.1 and Win7 Pro x64
