Hi yet again Cathy, Today I finished the styles translation table for Drew and now I am catching up on some of my email backlog.
Yes the _theory_ was that the memory settings had little effect. In practice they were moved from the global options dialog into the "/Expert Configuration/", because the majority of users do not understand how computer hardware memory allocation works or how the software utilizes that allocation. I have seen first hand, situations where users, in an attempt to solve slow processing issues, have changed resource allocations to levels their computers were unable to provide, only to generate software or whole system crashes. Of necessity LO has to allocate itself resources in accordance with the provisions made available by the operating system it is running on. By it's very nature this allocation has to be a calculated "/best guess/' and for the most part succeeds, but like everything in life, there is no "/no one size fits all/" solution. In a previous message I made reference to an installed version of LO 6.x on a Win 7 machine "/running like a dead slug/" and that is only one of the very trivial issues encountered. I won't go into this here, but suffice it to say that I have played every trick in the book to resolve these issues to no avail. I just have to accept there is something in this machine's configuration, or something else, that prevents so many aspects of LO from working correctly.
