Maybe a search-and-replace of all alphanumerics with the a single letter would yield a test document that exhibited the symptoms but could be released publicly. (Though maybe not, some things such as spell checking and autocomplete would act differently). -Chris -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: discuss+unsubscr...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
[tdf-discuss] Bug (??) Table deletion in Writer 4.0.2.2
Hi: I'm using 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 and recently updated LibreOffice to 4.0.2.2, and I hope I've been sending these reports to the right place. Today I attempted to delete a table, which I have always done by placing the cursor in the table, then using the menu sequence Table | Delete | Table but when I tried to do that with 4.0.2.2, and chose the Table | Delete menu option, everything was greyed out and I couldn't do it. I ended up selecting the table as well as the paragraph markers above and below it to delete it. I'm assuming that Writer knew the cursor was in the table because the Table Tool bar appeared as usual when I entered the table. I used the Ubuntu software center to install this version (and yes - I removed the earlier version I was using first), so I assume I'm not using a pre-release candidate or anything, but I seem to be encountering more anomalies than usual with Writer (I've sent three possible bugs to this address in the past few days and believe I've only sent in one or two in the past couple years). Is there any sort of sanity check I should be running to insure the stuff I have is ok? Also, by the way, I've noticed that Writer tends to bog down and stop for a while in large documents (such as the book I'm currently working on which is about 350 pages or so), which it didn't do in earlier versions. Is there some sort of memory management configuration that's changed that I should know about? Thanks, by the way, for a great program - I've used countless word processors - both early stand alone machines as well as personal software - since the late 70s, and Writer is as well thought out as anything I've encountered (just don't be like Microsoft and completely change the interface every couple years or so while leaving the long-standing bugs in place.) If you have questions about this report or my recent ones, or need examples, feel free to contact me. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: discuss+unsubscr...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
