Description artarnold1954@frontier.com 2014-05-31 14:53:24 UTC
choose to insert document from scanner.  The scan will finish.  You cannot close nor exit the windows to continue work.  Only way to exit is to use the control alt delete

A major problem and was in a RELEASED version  

Should never have been released.

Has this happened in a previous version of LibreOffice? What version of windows are you running and what type of scanner do you have?
Comment 2 artarnold1954@frontier.com 2014-06-07 01:16:44 UTC
do not have, nor tried another version of Libreoffice.  The scanner is a canon multifunction MP280 completely compatible
with Windows 7 Professional.  After installing/reinstalling about 3-4 times, I gave up.  Sorry is didn’t work.

Scanning with LO 4.2.4.2 under Windows XP Pro en_US SP3 x86 works perfectly both with an HP Photosmart 5520 Multifunction and a Canon LIDE 35.

Maybe this is a Windows 7 and/or x64 specific problem?

Could you possibly send us a screenshot of the scan window that is not closable.

LibreOffcie 4.2.3.3 Writer Insert  -> Image -> Scan -> Select Source

Calling this Works for Me, with caveat that TWAIN vs. WIA could be an issue for folks working on MS Windows.

On Windows 7 sp1, 64-bit (en-US)with
Version: 4.2.3.3
Build ID: 6c3586f855673fa6a1576797f575b31ac6fa0ba3

Screen clip attached is the correct Insert Image from Scanner, which is a two step process.

1. Select the Scanner source in Writer from Insert -> Image -> Scan -> Select Source; a pop-up dialog will show whit a listing of scanner devices *detected* with TWAIN drivers that LibreOffice requires. Select the scanner, in my case a VueScan driven HP Photoshop 3100.  Note: if no Scanners are presented, correct TWAIN (or WIA) driven access to the scanner is not configured.

2. With scanner selected, start a scan acquisition with the "Request" action button, i.e. the Insert -> Image -> Scan -> Request

In my case, TWAIN scan control is passed out of LibreOffice and over to VueScan for actual control of the scanner. Where I do a preview scan, Image rotation and cliping, image format, and make final scan at resolution. With VueScan, I also must complete the scan and release the result by selecting "Last Page". 

Note that ALL of this is external to LibreOffice which will *block* waiting for the input and release. When image is returned from scanner it is inserted anchored at cursor position and scaled to fit within current document margins.

@artarnold1954, can you describe the driver type (WIA or TWAIN) and supporting software for your chosen scanner?
