I do not offer this as a sure-fire solution, but merely record my experience Thank you for sharing your experience! A memory corruption may be the main problem, but pictures nowadays are typically much bigger than they were, when OO was designed. That said, I would like to increase the memory settings at least for trunk/AOO42X. Default is now: Graphics cache: 20 MB, 5.2 MB per object, Remove after 10 minutes. 20 Objects Opinions? just in crease the settings. What about 100 MB and 10 MB for each object?
