I just tested this with MS Word and it works ok there. Unfortunately, LO on macOS is not "accessible-tool friendly". Using any sort of accessibility tool on macOS with LO is pretty much guaranteed to make it crash and/or freeze. The reason is that most of the LO accessibility code is using deprecated Apple APIs and there simply aren't the developers to keep on top of the changes, or even rewrite the parts of the code to match current Apple accessibility API requirements. Confirming with Version: 7.3.1.3 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: a69ca51ded25f3eefd52d7bf9a5fad8c90b87951 CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 12.2.1; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: threaded It hangs for me with aarch64 M1 version too, requiring a forced kill.. Pretty certain this is a DUP, just can't find it right now. I can now dictate using VoiceOver, with no crashing, when using: Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (AARCH64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ad387d5b984c6666906505d25685065f710ed55d CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 13.0.1; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded |
