Hi :)
In previous cases i think it's usually turned out to be a corrupted file.
1. So, can you create a copy of the file as it is so that if anything else
goes wrong with it then at least you have this new back-up?
2. Are there older versions of the file that you can go back to?
3. Are you also having troubles with other files or is it just this one?
4. It's vaguely possible that it's your install of LibreOffice. 1st thing is
to rename your user-profile to see if that changes anything useful
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile
Any better yet?
5. If you go to
Tools - Options - Memory
then you can boost the amount of memory that LO can use for various things.
It's defaults are quite low because LibreOffice is often used on far lower-spec
machines than yours.
6. If you used the package manager to install then try it's "repair broken packages"
feature. However LibreOffice is an exception to the usual rule and it's often better to download
LibreOffice from "upstream" directly from the LibreOffice website rather than install a
tweaked version from a distro's repos. Have you been able to check your download was ok? Md5sum
or Sha should
be easy to check but if not (if, like me, you don't know how to) then perhaps
just re-download and re-install.
7. Can you try an earlier version of LibreOffice? The 3.5.7 would be a good
one to try. The higher that 3rd digit the more stable the release tends to be.
Usually past x.x.4 the difference is fairly minor and the 3.6.x branch has
already reached a high enough 3rd digit for it to be unlikely to have any
problems. The advantage of the newer branch is better compatibility with MS
formats and greater functionality. Neither of those sounds important for you
right now though.
8. Someone with more knowledge of LO than me is likely to give a better answer
soon if not already but my list is roughly what i would do in the order i would
do it.
Until then good luck and please let us know how this goes
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

libreoffice Version 3.6:build-304 (Build ID: 360m1(Build:304)),
I have a calc file with 7 sheets, one of them is a 33 columns x 4461 rows
sheet, I would like to delete it, right click on it, click on delete sheet,
after one hour it wasn't deleted and libreoffice was hanged, is it normal or it
is not a common behaviour??? or bug??
and also I remember that with the previous versions it wasn't so slow in all
the operations, insert a number in a blank cell takes up to 3 seconds
to delete the sheet I had to delete 500 rows per time and then the sheet
deletetion takes about 5 minutes
I don't know if it depends on file, I can send if it can help
thnx :-) ciao :-) pier and happy new year

ok, I made a copy of the file, on this copy I tryed to delete the
"archivi" sheet, it is empty, I launched this yesterday at 21:00, this
morning at 09:00 it was still there working, so I decided to adopt
another strategy :-)
I opened a new spreadsheet, copied (right click on
sheet>copy/move>select copy>select the new spreadsheet>ok) the first
sheet, the copy was very fast, I made the same with the second.
With the third it takes about 20seconds, a suspect rise to me, the third
was only data sheet, no formulas, so I added a sheet in the new
spreadsheet and copied only data, the same with the other sheets.
now the spreadsheet is very more fast than before, but the formatting
parameters hasn't been transferred at all, many things has to be redone
in the appearence and fonts and styles, but now it is possible to work
with it.
do you think it is a defective file?? or other??
thanks bye :-) pier :-)
