------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Nov 10 02:18:16 -0800 2005 ------- I'm writing down my school notes using stable OOo2.0 on Debian. Take a look at my document: http://193.95.242.3/tmp/APS-I-zapiski.odt As you can see, the document consists of many drawings, paragraph styles, formulas and tables. If this were a few pages long document, OOo handled it fine. But when document became 20+ pages long, I began experiencing some *very* critical issues: 1) Having OOo session opened for more than 3 hours and editing the document, copying&pasting from draw component etc. usually results in crash (memory leak?) 2) Some of the vector drawings (arrows, rectangles, drawn in OOo Draw component) randomly loose vertical positions. They look anchored at the correct paragraph, but the Y offset is completely messed up (eg. they appear on a 2000th page, or at the beginning of the document?!?) 3) Switching from web layout -> page view also results in unexpected behaviours. Elements randomly loose their Y offset (rerendering of the document?). 4) When you load the document, it's imperative to wait for 30 or so seconds, go slowly from top to the bottom of the document so the OOo aligns things as they should be (and some are not!) and only then proceed to the end of the docuemnt and start writing. Shouldn't the complete layout be calculated and stable when you open the document? Now, if you don't follow the rules I mentioned, you get elements randomly loosing their anchors and jumping up and down. 5) When undoing in the mentioned document, every undo becomes composited of 5 or so steps. One of them is your actual action. The other four are the new automatic alignmnents of the drawings that jump from a for me unrelated random page to another unrelated place. This appears no matter where I'm making the document change. (maybe some elements are at the end of the document and I don't see them and they're related somehow?) 6) Today, OOo2 crashed when I wanted to save my document and the recovery program was only able to recover the original document (this resulted in a 30 minutes of lost data!). I really don't know why the AutoSaveRecovery function isn't enabled by default in the configuration. It's obvious that OOo2 isn't stable enough IMO for this option being turned off. All of the issues are very obvious in the document I'm reffering to. I'm personally really dissapointed about these issues: I was using OOo1.1beta 3 years ago with similar document complexity and I was encountering the same bugs. This points out that the internal formatting&typesetting code wasn't touched a bit for so much time... and it's obvious that it needs fixing, if not a complete rewrite. Am I the only one experiencing this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
