Description jaap.aarts1 2020-10-06 12:15:51 UTC
I am working in a document with mostly formulas and some calc table, about 3 pages long.
I needed to insert a decision tree with calc, this worked fine until at some point writer slowed down and became unresponsive, after this page 1 was unaffected but all the formulas and sheets after that ware misaligned. Deleting the draw OLE fixed made everything align nicely again (besides the sheets, but the anchors ware moved for those).
I can upload the document in question later, I dont have much time right now.

The artifacts are a bit less visible but there are still formulas not being shown.

Can you attach screenshots showing the good and bad results? I ask because I don't understand the problem.

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the screenshots.

Attachment showing weird behaviour

It is best shown in a video, just me playing around, scrolling a bit, and cut/pasting the OLE. When I removed the OLE everything look as it should be, when when I put it back everything went back to being messed up.
