Hi Herald,

I checked your references, but I did not see any profile.

What I did with both computers, I totally deleted LibreOffice, 
deleted  all references to LibreOffice including the entire folders 
C:\Program Files\LibreOffice, 
C:\Users\Greg\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice. I  then  ran CCleaner, 
including running  the registry cleaner, I then ran Privazer, then 
rebooted.


I then did a clean, new download of LibreOffice, the Help file and 
documentations in pdf format. I had to re-enter all my preferences. I 
have java on my laptop, but not on the desktop. I was  able to 
download java a few weeks ago. The java web site now would not let me 
download java on either computer using Windows Edge, or Firefox. I 
kept getting a 503 error.  Do  I really need java, other than the 
database?

I don't know if Impress will work yet, I haven't tried it yet. I 
completed the original presentation project, despite it's continual 
crashing. I have to figure out a new project to try.


Thank you for responding.

Hi Gregory,

it's a pity that it doesn't work properly for you.

Please have a look at the points in the following link:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps

Test steps 3 and 2 from there, in that order, to see if it brings 
improvement.


If this is not helpful, I would ask you to upload your Impress file 
somewhere in the cloud and post the link here.


So that someone can look at the file, test and investigate whether 
there are also problems. Thank you.


Best Regards

the crash report, restore the program, then I have to reposition the

laptop.

not with that nonsense.

By any chance, did you start by importing a Power Point?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Help with Impress

2022-11-11 Thread Ade Malsasa Akbar
Hello Gregory,

I teach LibreOffice class with many students and now they use Impress
7.4 too. All succeeded  doing presentations with 20-50 slides without
any crash. However, they all use GNU/Linux. So I can confirm at least
Impress 7.4 works normally on GNU/Linux.

Firstly, could you send your presentation file here? It might help
others to examine and reproduce the issues.

Secondly, as a suggestion, you might consider to try several different
versions of LibreOffice on Windows 10 and see which one works normally
for you and use the working one (I always do this). Experience told me
the latest version is not always the best.

Sincerely yours,

Ade Malsasa Akbar
