Attachments: Patch to correct the refcount handling for Fill pictures

Description Daniel 2008-11-25 03:14:33 UTC 
I create a slideshow the usual way.
The only objects i insert, are images.

The way i do this is the following:

slide = slideShow.createSlide();
			slide.setFollowMasterBackground(false);
			
			Fill fill = slide.getBackground().getFill();
			int pictureData = slideShow.addPicture(outputFile, Picture.PNG);
			fill.setFillType(Fill.FILL_PICTURE);
			fill.setPictureData(pictureData);

I guess its easy to understand.
after creating my slideshow, i open it in powerpoint and the first things i see are red X's or Crosses.

The Symbol for a image that can not be shown.
A workaround to see the images is so save the Slideshow againg and switch the viewing mode.

am i doing something wrong?
are there known issues?
i would like to see my images correct.

Regards,
DAniel

The problem is that the refcount on the EscherBSERecord is not maintained correctly for fills (although it is for Pictures).
I'll upload a patch as soon as I've got the tests working.
