------- Additional comments from ans...@openoffice.org Tue Sep 1 10:09:04 +0000 2009 ------- I'm using OOo Writer version 3.1 on MacOS X 10.5 (officially released download). Tried to work with a 200 page document with images (software user manual). Scrolling page-wise up and down with the page up/down keys takes about 2-4 seconds per page on a Mac Pro 8-core machine with 12GB RAM. I doubt this is the intended behavior, especially on a capable machine like that. As mouse wheel scrolling is also not usable for skimming long documents (see Issue #90907), there is currently no viable way to work on longer documents on the Mac. The previous version 2.4 under X11 performs fine with the same document. Therefore I rated this issue a defect rather than an enhancement. As to the cause, although I dont know the source code, I would guess there is something wrong with the lazy background formatter/renderer, i.e. it seems to always render the entire document rather than the requested pages only. Hopefully this is not too hard to fix. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
