Hi,
thanks for the information.
Thus, I normally except, that after the copy action and the waiting to
resolve the URL links to the pictures, the pictures should be visible.
The performance problem, that the Writer is blocked until the picture
links are resolved, will hopefully be solved in OOo 2.3.
The problem, that the linked pictures aren't visible, can't be
reproduced in my environment.
Questions:
- Do you have the same experience with other websites?
- Do you have the correct internet connection settings?
See menu Tools - Options - Internet - Proxy. You can tried out, if the
resolving of URLs in general works by inserting a linked picture into a
new Writer document:
-- new Writer document
-- menu Insert - Picture - From File
-- mark checkbox named "Link" in the opened dialog
-- insert the following text into the filename field of the opened dialog:
http://www.mopo.de/images/dummy/ad-mopo-epaper.gif
This is the logo of a german newspaper
-- confirm the dialog
Check, if the logo is visible.
Regards, Oliver.

These tests were done on a Macbook running Parallels, so OS X and Windows XP
were used. The copy source was Firefox. By paste to windows I mean pasting
to Office 2003 Word in XP. This behavior is consistent in OpenOffice Writer
in OS X and Windows XP. Word will paste all the pictures fine and it will
not lock up.

Hi,
Which application is your copy source?
Firefox, Internet Explorer, ... ?
There is a known issue, that certain linked graphics of a website copied
from the Internet Explorer aren't visible. Reason: If the links to the
graphics are given relative to the website address, the links can't be
resolved.
What do you means by "paste to Windows"?
Do you mean that you've pasted to a document of Microsoft Word?
Regards, Oliver.

Not exactly sure why, but from certain sites OpenOffice.org Writer will
either lock up / lag for a while after the content was pasted. I see this
behavior and also another issue. I cut & pasted text from a web page and
it
took 83 seconds for the hourglass to go away. I also noticed that the
pictures that I cut were not displayed in the document after pasting.
Here's how to reproduce:
go to
http://www.tutorialsforopenoffice.org/tutorial/First_Time_User_OpenOffice_Writer.html#3.1.Change%20Margins|outline
cut the text from the heading "Activate the Tips Feature" to the heading
"Paper and Margins"
Paste into Writer. As you can see the pictures do not show up in the
document

But if I paste to WIndows it looks just like the original

Can anyone here give some feedback as to why this issue is occuring, and
a
possible fix?
