Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 21902
Gallery - preview or inserting *.CPT Pics crashes Oo

Open the Gallery Make new Theme - select a Gallery folder which contains a format which contains CorelDraw *.CPT 's. The unusable format is shown in the list (but it shouldn't be shown). If you click "insert all" or "preview" when a *.cpt is selected, Oo says bye bye. Foxboy
Hello Foxboy, does the cpt format appear in the file type drop down box on the files-tabpage of the theme properties box? I had a look there but could'nt find it. Would it be possible to attach a screenshot? Thanks.
No! The Format itself isn't supported by Openoffice. But hence it isn't supported, Openoffice shouldn't try to open such a file. It shouldn't even show it in the files list. And no - it isn't in the drop-down-file-format-list-thing-menu. ;)
The CPT files I have in my directory (I have JPG's, GIF's, CPT's and CDR's and BMP's) are displayed as selectable graphics. Example: Tell Oo to just show the BMP-Files. Only BMP Files will be displayed. Tell Oo to show JPG's - JPG's are displayed. Now tell Oo to show all possible files (not *.* but all Oo-compatible Files, all the ones that are possible to copy into a document or into the gallery - the first option in the scrolldown list). And voila - the CPT's show up. They shouldn't! Foxboy
Sorry, I cannot reproduce this. I select the first entry of the drop down box, what is :<All Files> (*.bmp;*.dxf;*.emf;*.eps;*.gif;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.jfif;*.jif;*.met;*.pbm; *.pcd;*.pct;*.pcx;*.pgm;*.png;*.ppm;*.psd;*.ras;*.sgf;*.sgv;*.svm;*.tga; *.tif;*.tiff;*.wmf;*.xbm;*.xpm;*.wav;*.aif;*.au). But just the shown formats are listed, no cpt that are in the directory. Could you please attach one of your cpt's, maybe they are the reason. Thanks.
Created attachment 10802 [details] A sample *.CPT file
Well - these Files are older Photopaint Files. It doesn't matter if they can't be read. Oo just shouldn't display them, that's all. Fox
Thanks for this. I have not a crash with this file, OO just says: "Nonexistent object. Path to the file does not exist". But it should not be displayed in the filelist at all.
Reassigned to Kai. Please have a look.
accepted for OOo 2.0
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
With AOO 4.x, CPT is no longer current available in proposed formats. So to insert *.CPT, you must force this extension in dialog box. If you try to insert attached file, no crash but it appears in Gallery as blank frame. If I drag and drop this file on the document, the picture is correctly display.
