Description Andreas Rehor 2021-04-18 13:53:02 UTC
Description:
I use Calc to manage a stock depot with 8 external links via Internet. If one of the servers need more time to respond or do not respond not only the actual calc is stoped but also other calc sessions without external links. Sometimes I need to stop it with the task manager. This behavior exists also in older versions of libre office calc.

Actual Results:
bright gray window, no reaction in calc, sometimes waiting only a few seconds, but sometimes several minutes. A few times I needed to kill calc with the task manager.

Expected Results:
The call of external links should not stop calc at all.


Reproducible: Sometimes
