Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 9720
Corrupted embedded OLE edit interface
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:28 UTC
Summary Display problem when a document containing Cross-References as an OLE object is inserted Steps to reproduce bug 1.Open a new file 2.Go to the menu Option Insert->Object->OLE Object 3.Choose the Create from file option 4.Choose the file I have attached below to insert as an Ole Object The swx file appears an OLE object on the screen without any problem. Select the OLE object and double-click it or right on the object and choose the edit option. 5.Try and type some text into the OLE object. No text appears on the screen although the text that is being typed is actually being added to the file. In order to see the text the Ooo window has to minimized and restored again. Any new text again will not be displyed on the screen. Similarly if backspace is pressed, the deletion of the text is not displayed on the screen until the window is minimized and maximized again. Notes: This display problem occurs for any of the Cross Referencing options that are available in the writer application. I have tried them all but have provided the following example file for an attachement since I feel that it is an example of a file that is pretty common and where this function may be used extensively. I have no clue as to why this bug occurs. I hope that you will find this report useful in finding and fixing the bug.
Created attachment 3838 [details] Test file containing cross reference
Bharath, thank you for using and supporting OOo. Duplicated on Win2k server SP3, OOo 643C. Problem does not exist in RH OOo 1.0.1, RH 8.0. Summary: When editing embedded OLE objects in a doc, a stripped down "writer" interface appears. OOo 643c has rendering/display problems with this interface. Text entered does not display, moving the scrollbars creates confusing refresh problems. User summary Display problem when a document containing Cross-References as an OLE object is inserted
Reassigned to MRU
MRU->AMA: Hm, only in this case the text is not painted correctly in the OLE object. Really seems to depend on the inserted cross references.
OD->MRU (25.02.2003): defect reproducable in srx644m3, but no longer reproducable in srx644m3s1. Please verify and close this issue.
MRU->OD: In OO 1.1 Beta, the you type is not displayed anyway. In srx644m9 (and CWS sw011) Writer crashes, when entering text in the OLE.
FME: Crashed should be fixed already. Please check in current version.
Crash fixed in srx644m11. Target lowered to OO2.0
OD (22.04.2003): accepted and reset priority.
OD (23.04.2003): accepted.
OD->MRU (03.07.2003): Again, not reproducable in SRX645m9. Please verify and close.

Fixed in OO 1.1 RC3.
