Screen image showing a slide with a vanished picture.
When opening a self created Impress file (".odp") on the same computer,
sometimes some of the inserted pictures have vanished. Instead, a rectangle is
shown, having the exact position and size but just containing an icon (I have
attached a screen image). The pictures have vanished from the file
"content.xml" (<draw:image xlink:href="">) and also from the included subfolder
"Pictures".
History:
We have used StarOffice and Oracle Open Office for many years without that
problem.
Then, we have switched to Apache OpenOffice-3.4.1: My wife had shown an Impress
presentation during her lecture at the university, but five of the about 30
pictures have vanished as decribed above. When my wife had double-checked that
presentation before, everything was fine.
Failed tries of work-around:
Enlarging the picture cache seems to make the problem even worse: the next
time, 7 pictures have vanished — this time at home when checking a
presentation.
Uninstalling Apache Open Office 3.4.1 and reinstalling it did not help.
Uninstalling Apache Open Office 3.4.1 and (re-)installing Oracle Open Office
3.1.0 did not help for long: again one picture has vanished the other day at
the university…
Uninstalling Oracle Open Office, removing as many preferences and cache files
we could find, and re-installing Apache Open Office 3.4.1 did not help: again
sometimes some pictures have vanished when reopening a file.
My wife is suspecting the automatic storing of recovery data, which happens
every 15 minutes while editing a file, but we are not shure about that.
