Writer will hang after I scrolled up - down between the ends of a complex document with lots of linked slave documents with linked pictures, sections, and so on in it. After some scrolls focus will hang, pictures are flashing, CPU load is at maximum, memory consumption rises and rises. I have to kill soffice.bin by task manager, problem is 100% reproducible for me. It seems that the problem mainly appears with Zoom = adapt height/width 2 sheets view selected in Status Bar. I had to fall back to 4.0.3, what does show that problem for me. This was with a German LibreOffice on WIN XP 7 No way to create a sample document easily, these Master document are embedded into my file system
Hi Bugcruncher, could you please attach an example document showing this behavior? Otherwise it's impossible to reproduce the problem and the exact steps that lead to it, since you say this is reproducible 100% for you. Also could you try http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/ LO 4.1.0.1 and see if you still see the bug with that version? After providing that additional info please set this bug to UNCONFIRMED. Thanks :)
Hi James, As I said in the report it's not possible to create a sample document, the problem is only reproducible with my complex documents, newly created documents with a more simple structure do not crash.
I wanted to do some additional tests, but 404 has such a horrible number of crashes in Writer, I uninstalled it again (replaced it with 4.0.3 again) and will not do any further tests with that Version.
Same Mess with Master documents and with 4.1.0.3 WIN administrative installation
