Description yxpoh 2021-03-18 06:52:32 UTC
Description:
So when I have pictures in the Impress, changing from slides to slides is very slow and lagging.

I tried disabling anti-aliasing and it doesn't work. That's where I saw the Skia setting and tried disabling it. Immediately my slides transition when working on it no longer lags and it's smooth.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Default Install or Enable Skia in Tools/Options/LibreOffice>View
2. Put some pictures/images in Impress and try moving from slides to slides
3. Restart Impress as indicated (If not activated already.)

Actual Results:
Slides will take some time to load as if the application hung.

Expected Results:
Slides should load almost immediately. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Slides do load almost immediately when Skia is disabled.

I can't find 7.0.5.2 release as the option.
Comment 2 steve 2021-03-18 09:00:11 UTC
7.0.5 is here: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/

That page also lists 7.1.1.

And it would be interesting to learn if this persists with a currently nightly build from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master

Could you test those versions and report back how they behave.

Sorry, I meant that I am using 7.0.5.2 where the issue happen but I can't find it as an option.
Comment 4 yxpoh 2021-03-18 11:25:09 UTC
Yep.
7.2.0.0alpha0 has the same issue.

Ryzen 2600
Radeon Gigabyte 5700
16GB Ram
Running from SSD drive.

Was using pptx.
But thought it might be file type issue.
But saving as .odp but trying with skia seems to produce the same issue.

It's fine if it's just text.

Hello yxpoh,
could you please try again with LibreOffice 7.1.2.2 due to be released today ?

If you can still reproduce with 7.3 and Skia, you could attach the Skia log file from
C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\cache\skia.log
Comment 11 yxpoh 2022-03-18 04:31:35 UTC
7.3.1.3 seems to have stopped the issue.
Still trying but at least initial usage seems fine.

Great, let's close
