Description Vincent Boudry 2012-02-17 02:14:05 UTC 
Copying a selection of cells from LO3.5.0 to Postbox compose window (I guess it should be the same for Thunderbird) seems to send both program in infinite loop (CPU raises at 100%, no end time until one of the programs is killed).
No such problem with LO 3.4.5.
Comment 1 Vincent Boudry 2012-02-17 05:00:20 UTC 
I just noticed that this might be the HTML export that fails.

Copying some cells from Calc and pasting them in a Writer document as HTML (paste special...) results in the same behaviour: 100% CPU...

I haven't seen any problem when pasting in TextEdit (as RTF ?).
Comment 2 Peter Schmitt 2012-03-14 22:47:25 UTC 
I can confirm the behaviour in the case that the CELL SELECTION CROSSES OVER HIDDEN COLUMNS:
Copying this selection from CALC and pasting it into Thunderbird leads to hang-up of both LibO and Thunderbird unless CALC becomes terminated by Task-Manager. 
Then Thunderbird will be released.

reproducable on Windows Xp SP3 with LibO 3.5.0 and LOdev3.5.2RC0-nightlyBuild-20120312

it does not happen in LibO 3.4.5
Comment 3 Peter Schmitt 2012-03-15 23:23:25 UTC 
Freeze/Hang-Up of both LibO and Thunderbird if Copy&Paste-CELL SELECTION CROSSES OVER HIDDEN COLUMNS also happens in LibO 3.5.1 Release.
Comment 4 Markus Mohrhard 2012-03-22 20:12:47 UTC 
I'll take this one.
