Description: Composing document. * From time to time updating or editing ToC. At one time LO will stall on this action (rotating ball). LO needs to be killed. When restarting LO and recovering document, this continues adding pages in the hundreds. Need to close document. Upon reopening all looks normal but: continue at *. "Findings" (after 3 hours of desperation): Document has a cover sheet, that is not counted in page numbering. 2nd page is a welcome note and ends with a Page Break. 3rd page is ToC. Content starts on 4th page as a new page, therefore 3rd page (ToC) ends with Page Break. When length of ToC reaches end of page and a ToC-Action is attempted, LO stalls, see above. "Solution": Added enough Line Breaks on ToC page, so a new page was formed. ToC extends now in new page (new 4th). Conclusion: ToC process is not capable of extending into a needed new page and lets LO stall/crash. Steps to Reproduce: 1. see description above 2. 3. Actual Results: see description above Expected Results: see description above Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: none
Is it possible to share an example file demonstrating the issue described.. attempting to rebuild same circumstances sounds like quite an exercise
You can also give a try to 7.0.3. Indeed, even if there's a bug in 6.4.7, there won't be any new official version since it's EOL (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/6.4).
