Hi :) Good. So you have found a work-around for the short-term - mid-term.
For the longer-term please can you post a bug-report against LibreOffice separately from the OpenOffice bug-report http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport You can ignore most of the advice in there. Just use the link to start the new bug-report. If you can upload attachments directly to the bug report that would be great but just giving the url address that you gave lower down in this thread might be good enough. If you can also give a url address of the OpenOffice bug-report that might help the triagers and the devs. A full url is good because people can just click on it to get to the right place. The devs do try to work through OpenOffice bug-reports but it's going to be increasingly difficult due to the LO code-clean-up and rapid development. Some issues are going to magically disappear or become much easier to fix. Hopefully this might be one of those issues. I guess you have already looked at Tools - Options - LibreOffice - Memory I don't think it will help but it might be worth trying. I'm not a dev so i don't understand most of the question. I have cc'd this email back to the Users List but it would be best (imo) to contact the devs directly or through the bug-report http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice Many thanks and regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: Tom Davies <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, 2 July, 2011 8:19:16 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Too many variables in writer document problem Hello, no, there´s no other answer than to reduce the number of variables ( What I actually did ). It seems to me that the problem looks like jeoparding pointer or lack of allocated/overwritten memory space. The program seem to loose the information what is name/reference of varibles and their content. Therefore itdisplays their name instead of their content. I tried to show what happens in the screen shots - I know thats rather difficult to understand for someone else - especially because it´s a tricky way to use writer for such a task. Maybe we can start discussion. By the way - are you a LO developer? Regards /RalfS Am Freitag, den 01.07.2011, 22:45 +0100 schrieb Tom Davies: > Hi :) > Did you get a good answer to this in the end?
