------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Nov 30 18:46:08 +0000 2009 ------- *** While reporting this bug I did not notice any option that allows uploading files *** I have a doc for which I have changed the template. In the Writer at Tools->Options->Load/Save->General section I have unmarked the option "Load user specific settings with the document". This allows when the template changed to have a pop-up message that offers the option to apply the new styles (i.e. update the doc to new template) or keep the old ones. I found two issues that crashed the writer when the new styles are applied, and I will detail below. It may be more issues, but I have attached a short version of the doc that I am using. Note that the crash happens both in Linux and Windows XP with the latest stable versions (3.1.1) of OpenOffice installed. *** Short description of the files attached *** ReferenceDoc.odt is the document for which the template Carte_A5.ott was changed. The change in the template Carte_A5.ott was for the paragraph TextBody style for which in the Text Flow tab the "Orphan control" and "Window control" options have been unmarked. *** 1st issue **** Two situations are described below. a) While opening the ReferenceDoc file the pop-up window that allows applying the new style appears. Selecting the option to update to new styles crashes the Writer. b) Open again ReferenceDoc, but this time select to keep the old styles. Go to the end of the document. You will notice 4 rows of "x". Delete those 4 rows and save the doc. Open it again, but now select to apply the new styles. Note that in this case there is no crash. You can add yourself back some 4 lines text at the end of the doc, but don't forget to use the the original ReferenceDoc since at this time the new styles are successfully applied. *** 2nd issue *** Now we have to change the original setup. Open the original ReferenceDoc, keep the old styles when the pop-up window appears and delete the 4 lines of "xx" at the end of the doc. Save the file. This will ensure that 1st issue will not happen, as described in 1b) above. Modify the template Carte_A5 by going File->Templates->Edit. Go to paragraph Heading 2 style, and modify it by selecting the tab Text Flow and enabling in the Breaks section the "With Page Style" and Default page. Save the template. Open ReferenceDoc and you will be prompted to apply the new styles. If you click to apply the new styles, the Writer crashes. The issues occurs at the page 3 in the ReferenceDoc with Content section which is a Heading 2 type. In the template Heading 2 inserts a page break before and starts the page with the page style Default. In the ReferenceDoc, the Content which is Heading 2, has a page break before it, but the page style was set manually to First Page (check the page style for the Content section). I would expect that the Writer would change the page style for page 3 with Content, from First Page to Default, as the template commands. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
