[HELP] fdo#44721 (nearly) infinite loop & memory consumption

I'd appreciate some help on fdo#44721; it is not directly in my area
of expertise, but is very crippling for Base / Report Builder users:
one cannot resize a control with the mouse: LibreOffice freezes and
takes up all memory.

Someone more familiar with the UI parts of LibreOffice would be *much*
more efficient than me on this bug.

Thanks in advance.

        A basegfx memory leak / crasher :-) Thorsten is prolly a good guy to
have a look I guess.

        Thanks !

Nah, more likely underflow / insufficient range checking, with the
large negatives coming in. Will have a look - a nice, ready-made
.odb with a single big button to press appreciated of course :)

Cheers,

Err... Sorry for the noise, the bug seems to have disappeared.

Well, it has reappeared, with more narrow, but still quite large,
reproduction cases. Could you please have a look? I've attached videos
to the bug to show exactly what to do to reproduce it. Thanks.

This bug by now has two duplicates or near-duplicates :-(

Finally nailed it! Pfou... Now, need to fix the reasons the UI even
allowed one to trigger this bug. Looks complicated again :-|

Thorsten, thanks for the hint at which function to look at (which
already had "unreasonable values").
