Hi :) I suspect there are a dozen or so highly specific combinations of factors that cause the bug. In which case it would be impossible to isolate the different sets from each other if there was any overlap.
Lets say that B=3 causes the bug but only when A is set to 3 or when C is set to 5 but if D=8 when A=3 then the problem doesn't happen unless .... Add in that we don't know whether A is the OS in use or the one previously used with the file, or a version of java or phase of the moon or something to do with chicken bones. Hmm, we can probably discount those last 2. If devs haven't been able to solve it in several years then maybe the problem needs to be approached differently or maybe it will become obvious during code-clean-up or just magically vanish.

To: [email protected] Date: Friday, 17 February, 2012, 3:11 You've been lucky. Several of us encountered the problem with a few files when using LO 3.4; I can't recall whether it occured with 3.3, but I think so. My suspicion is that there is something weird in some of our files ... some of which originated in OOo1.x, OOo2.x, or even MSWord ... and that weird something triggers the observed behaviour, sometimes, for some people, under who knows what conditions. Of course, that's just speculation. --Jean On Fri, Feb 17, 2012 at 12:50, Andrew Douglas Pitonyak <[email protected]> wrote: > I had not seen this behavior in a very very long time.
