I tried on another machine with same Libreoffice version & could not reproduce the above problem. Then I tried the following steps on my machine again to get around the problem. 1. I deleted my Indian (Hindi) and Gujarati Language keyborad Layouts and added again, but this did not resolve problem. 2. I deleted libreoffice user profile folder ".libreoffice" again run Libreoffice. This time the Libreoffice window reduced in size (including fonts) to almost one fifth of normal full screen. The menu bar displayed somewhat below the window. And the above problem remained same (After restart also).
3. After restart of libreoffice, I selected "Tools -Options-Languages settings - Languages - CTL ", which was showing as "Default - Hindi", then I selected from this drop-down "Hindi" and the pressed "OK" and exited. On re-start of Libreoffice, the normal function of Hindi language typing was restored. Now I can type in English, Hindi and Gujarati normally. It seems to me from above that the reported abnormal function was may be due to some corruption in user profile, or the way the Language options is saved or manipulated. For me it is SOLVED now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1085560 Title: Libreoffice 3.5.4.2 accepts Hindi character only after a space Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After update of ubuntu 12.04 LTS yesterday (01-Dec-2012 through update manager), the libreoffice now accepts only one character as input in hindi language.
