Description Ian Jarvis 2022-05-16 07:07:43 UTC
Description:
When I open a document that had an image in from some time before, it does not display the image. When I paste a copied image it pastes only a blank frame.

Both are very recent errors since it has been working perfectly for years.

Interestingly if I paste an image copied from MSWord, that works! But seemingly nothing else, including MS Picture Mgr.

I installed version 7.3.3 from your site but there is no change from my previous version 7.3.2.2

This is a major problem for me.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. copy an image (by any means inc a windows clip, except from MSWord)
2.paste to writer
3.look

Actual Results:
No image - just a frame

Expected Results:
an image pasted


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Sorry but I forgot all about it.

I haven't met the error for a long time. Ther have been a few updates as you will know so maybe one of those corrected it.
