Public bug reported:
I have opened an existing file for the first time in Gutsy with OOo 2.3.
After some modifications brought to this file, I noticed some images had
disappeared, but not all images, and an error message was displayed in a
frame of the size of the disappeared image indicating a read error.
Then, I don't saved it to keep my file in its last correct state, and I
made a copy of this file and opened it in parallel. And at this time the
images reappeared in my first modified file. So, I saved it and closed.
After reopening, all images which had disappeared were not present (not
an empty frame, but totally removed this time).
After, I opened a new copy of my file and I insert a space and remove it in
order to have "save" button enabled and my file not modified, and then I saved
it. I wondered why the size increased from 155566 bytes to 159378 with
exactly the same content, maybe a new version of ODF used in OOo 2.3 as this
file was created with OOo 2.0 and last modified on 2.1??? I have redone the
same modifications and this time there was no problem.
I noticed that when I had finished to redo the same modifications, automatic
saving was triggered, that I didn't see the first time. I say that as this is
may be linked to this problem, and the images in the first time disappeared
after a duration of the same order, but this is only an hypothesis and I'm not
sure at all of that (I will try to made some new tests).
I condider this as critical as it leads to a content loss.
