Summary0008964: Scribus uses 100% CPU for a long time when editing drop caps in layout view
DescriptionWhen adding corrections in layout view (not using the story editor), I deleted the first word of a paragraph with drop caps. Scribus then started to use 100% CPU and 4-5% of RAM (8GB) for a long time, until I killed the process after more than 30 minutes.
Steps To ReproduceDelete first word of paragraph with drop caps in layout view.
Additional InformationDoes not happen when using story editor.
TagsNo tags attached.

A sample would be quite useful to solve this issue. Could you upload the problematic document, please?

I can't do so now - I'll try not to forget to do it tomorrow, when I'm back in the office.

OK. I uploaded the file. I edited the article "Englishwomen conscientious objectors in World War II", where I deleted/changed the first word in the first paragraph.
I didn't try again - as I said, doing it in the story editor works perfectly.

Thanks you very much, the issue is now fixed. It was caused by ugly divisions by zero in the text layout function.
