Description Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2015-02-02 21:09:13 UTC 
When you open a large document (e.g. attachment 100922 [details]) from the start center, the progress bar will be active at the bottom and the start center thumbnails and buttons will still be clickable (e.g. i can click the 'Open File' button) and the menu bar will still be clickable as well.

I'm not reproducing this under Win8.1 x64 using LibO 5.0.3.1
but I'm able to reproduce it using LibO 4.2.6.2

while the file is loading you cannot click any element of the start center UI

I set status to RESOLVED WORKFORME

Yes it isnt as bad now as it was, but if you open the attachment 100922 [details] and while the loading bar is working click on the 'Open File' or 'Writer Document' button, those will be executed before the ods is opened.

Comment 4 tommy27 2015-11-01 17:56:57 UTC 
you are right.
it seems you cannot click them but the click stays in memory and is executed just before the .ods loads.

so improved but not yet fixed

Possible solutions: disable access to controls in the start center while loading, make this particular loading modal (e.g. feedback to the loading in an extra dialog - awkward for small files), show the target module immediately (ideally with first data). I would prefer the latter.
