------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Oct 8 09:44:17 +0000 2007 ------- description: on 64-bit linuces, copy-pasting calc cells into writer misbehaves: inserted ole object defauts to the (empty) top left cells. this produces an ole object that usually displays nothing but empty cells. this does not affect 32-bit versions of linux. steps to reproduce : 1) open writer, open calc. go to calc. 2) fill some cells, say, A21,B21 and C21 for instance. 3) select those cells, and copy them (Ctrl+C) 4) go to writer, and paste those cells (Ctrl+V) 5) see the result : you'll get a empty, 1-row 3-column ole object 6) double-click this ole object to edit it 7) scroll down to line 21, you'll find your data 8) click somewhere else on writer page to stop editing the ole object : hopefully you'll get the expected result, usually object's dimensions change and you need to manually resize it. see this ubuntu forums' thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=453265 this issue is a major showstopper for anyone who often inserts calc objects in writer. it seriously alters productivity because any copy-pasted object from calc to writer needs to be edited twice to get something approching the expected result. from my experience, it only affects 64-bit versions of linux (obviously running 32-bit version of OOo). i've been using OOo ever since 2.x is out, this bug affects all versions (2.1, 2.2, 2.3). This has been encountered on several 64-bit distributions, amongst them ubuntu (7.04 and 7.10 beta), sabbayon, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
