           Summary: Krita 2.4(b5): freeze after typing very big values in
                    the text box
           Product: kde
           Version: SVN
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: grossosilvio at yahoo.it


Version:           SVN (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

BUNTU 11.10 - 64 bit (Oneiric Ocelot) - UNITY SHELL
KDE: Platform Version 4.7.97 (4.8 RC2)
KRITA 2.4 - BETA 5 (installed through ppa:neon/ppa)
OpenGl is disabled (Setting > Configures > Display)
Vbox 4.1.4 (Windows 7 as Host; Ubuntu is the guest)

My Distro is updated - upgraded daily (through the ppa:neon/ppa package)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Fire up Krita and open a new Rgb custom document;
- Write some text;
- Select this text (well, it is a very difficult but....)
- When you have finally *selected* your text, type in the box a very high
value:  e.g. 99999.
 I know this value is way too big but I am testing Krita :-)
- Krita freezes because it is unable to apply this big value to the *selected*
text.

To recap, Krita does NOT crash on Ubuntu 11.10 but its GUI becomes
unresponsive.



Actual Results:  
Krita 2.4 is unable to handle very BIG values for the text tool.


Expected Results:  
Krita 2.4 beta 5 should not freeze its Gui when handling big text values.


I have tried to type big text values on Gimp 2.7.4 to see how it behaves :-)
With Gimp you can type these big values (e.g. 99999).
BUT, as soon as you hit enter to apply them, they are deleted (in order to
avoid Gimp to crash or freeze).

I have recorded a video with all my steps to freeze Krita 2.4 beta 5.
You can get it here:

On Windows 7, Krita 2.4 beta 5 crashes as soon as you hit enter.
While on Ubuntu 11.10, as detailed above, only freezes its GUI.

I suppose this bug affects Calligra Words as well.
