Can you post a URL that includes a picture with this problem? I cannot reproduce with relatively small images (ie PNG images under 100k). Have you queried the OpenOffice bug list? You can do so here: http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/project_issues.html What version of OO are you using? After a few searches of the OO bug database on my own, I didn't see anything offhand that directly relates to this problem. I did learn that Epiphany in this case is a browser (there are other software packages released under the name "Epiphany" elsewhere in the business world). Do you happen to know if the image itself is pasted to the file or a link to the image? I tried this at work (where I don't have Linux or Epiphay, unfortunately, will try again from home). When I highlight an image in Mozilla Firebird, Edit-Copy, go to a Writer doc and Edit-Paste, it pastes a *link* to the image I copied. Try this: Within Epiphany, save the image to disk. Try copying the image from disk and pasting in the Writer document. Does this also cause it to freeze? If pasting the image from disk does *not* cause OO to freeze, I'd be tempted to say your problem is related to this bug in OO: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9861 A relevant comment: "OOo is very busy resolving the links to some graphics files." Can you provide a link to the graphic you were trying to paste into Writer? I can reproduce a crash with an image paste from epiphany and writer, I'll look into it.

patch to fix this problem
Well that's an odd one, tracked it down to one file but problem went away when
I compiled with debugging symbols, and back when without. Looking at the
makefile.mk I see that under solaris intel this file gets compiled without
optimization to solve the same problem as I see. Patch attached to do that for
all platforms solves this bizarrity for us as well. 1.9.X series doesn't show
the problem.
caolanm->dcbw: patch fixes problem for me anyway. Back to you for consideration for inclusion. Cut and paste of google logo from epiphany to writer in 1.1.2-11 (FC2/FC3 updates) work for me now problem free. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; Linux) Description of problem: When copying an image from Epiphany, and then pasting it into Writer, Writer becomes unresponsive. The program no longer updates its window, and I cannot close it. It has to be killed manually. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.'Edit --> copy' image in Epiphany 2.'Edit --> paste' in OO Writer 3. Actual Results: OO Writer is unresponsitve. Expected Results: Image pasted & displayed in document. Additional info: Oddly enough, this operation works just fine with the same version of OOo under SuSE 8.2.
