Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: NO visual or other indication a task is executing.
Classification: Application
Product: Word processor
Version: OOO330m20
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows Vista
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3

OpenOffice Writer OOO330m20 (Build:9567) and all others.
When saving a file, the program is busied up (little round blue thingy on
screen and keyboard locked out).
When doing other tasks (find and replace, format paragraphs, etc.), the system
seems to NOT be busied up.
This allows multiple tasks to run at the same time. I was doing some massive
reformatting of a large (2.7 Megabyte) file and kept getting program crashes.
I finally figured out that I wasn't letting one task finish before starting the
next, since there is NO visual or other indication the first task is still
executing, and this SOMTIMES causes a system crash. Not always, but sometimes.
This seems to be the major bug I have been experiencing using OpenOffice
Writer. If you wait an undetermined amount of time between tasks the program
doesn't crash.
Please make it a part of your procedures to always busy the program when
executing any task. This seems simple, but it is necessary.
