Just to clarify: The Page tab is still there, it is the Background tab that is (in 4.2.0) replaced by Area. No special build are used by me, just those from our buildbots. I always do a clean install, that means everything from LO is purged. > > The Page background problem also showed up on AOO 4.1.6 (linux DEB 64 > version); others have reported the crash with Master Pages in Impress on that > version. I have not investigated the 4.1.6 version on a Windows machine. For Impress/Master Pages see: https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127805 It is important to name the Linux version on which the crash occurs. 4.1.6 has no problems (regarding Master Pages) on Ubuntu 16.04 but crashes on 18.04. My guess is that it is related to the different FreeType versions (2.6.x vs. 2.8.x). Regards, Matthias > smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Yes, this is the same issue as far as Impress Master Pages is concerned on OO Linux DEB 64 There is the other issue in my posting that OO Linux 64 DEB 4.2.0 does not apply page backgrounds (and the minor issue of whether that tab should be called Page or Area across all operating systems) I should stress that currently, for me doing my current work, these are not critical problems, but it would be good to have them sorted in the long run Rory > > Matthias has posted some crash analysis pointing to a function.

Re: OO 4.2.0 problem Page Background
Rory do you refer to this Issue https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127805. Matthias has posted some crash analysis pointing to a function. I reviewed the code tonight. Just read it and analyzed it. It looked fine on first glance. I think it could be an Binary Issue between FreeType 2.6.x and 2.8.x. I guess it happened in 2.7.x because I had this issue before FOSDEM 2017, and Arch Linux has used 2.7 at that time.

Can you provide a screenshot where you see a "Background" tab in 4.2.0? I can only find an "Area" tab and it is working as expected.

OO 4.2.0 problem Page Background
Using OpenOffice Writer 4.2.0, Rev. 1840700 (on Xubuntu 18.04.1) I am unable to add a page background - the Background tab does not respond. This is so whether I use /Format /Styles and Formatting /Pages, or /Format /Page. I ran into this problem while trying to solve a user problem on Forum; it does not in any way affect my own personal work. I have not OO 4.1.6 installed, so cannot check that. -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
