Here I want to draw your attention towards a very irritating feature in
OpenOffice. When i copy paste anything from a webpage, the images are
downloaded to OpenOffice sheet, and then displayed. Till then,
everything is hanged up.
And after some minutes, that images go off the buffer, so when scrolling
down to a page containing images, it again reloads the images form the
URL. This greatly effects the work flow. I spend most of the time just
looking at the pages and waiting them to complete refresh. It also
doesnt refresh all the images, but only those Images, which are in
current view portion in the page.
So, if i have to work on a large document, generally containing a lot
images besides text, i have to spend hours which would have been some
minutes work.
So, I think OOO.org is negatively effecting my work flow.
Minus the language, I posted about this a week ago in the
Questions newsgroup. No reply. Just now, for instance, I pasted
text with some spacer graphics into Writer. All four instances of
Writer are hung up, lost their internal window display, for five
minutes now. It is completely unconscionable. I was getting to
the point of pasting first into a text editor to clean up remote
file calls, then recopying/pasting into Writer. But that's not
acceptable.
I just got my display back. Why on earth does it take OO so long
to digest remote images?
p.
Paul, the language may have helped. This enquiry drew several replies.
