The MSWord document containing two embedded objects.
mmaher->dr: Maybe you have seen something similar in excel filters reassigned due to resource constraints; approved by AMA mmaher->mav: Some clarification required. When you open the original document in Writer you have two graphics and two speaker icons indicating embedded sound files. However these are not imported and can't be played (we don't support this feature bug has been filed issue 41024). Can this bug be closed as duplicate? mav->mmacher: Sorry, for now I see no relation between those two bugs. Impossibility to activate the object does not mean that it should not be stored. You can try to open the bugdoc on linux, store it in .odt format, and open the result .odt file on windows - the embedded objects are correct and can be used. Open the bugdoc on linux, store it in .doc format - on any platform the objects are lost. As I have already mentioned the objects seems to be stored in the document but it looks like the filter just does not add a reference to them in the document. mmaher->mav: Ok I agree i41024 is not a duplicate. I am having problems reproducing this issue on windows. Can you confirm on a recent build on windows? Is this a linux only problem (I don't have access to a linux system right now). Yes, the scenario works well on Windows. I didn't try the solaris version, but I would expect that it behaves itself in this case in the same way. One of possible problems could be wrong reaction of the filter for the impossibility to switch object to the running state. Ups... There is a mistake the latest post: "Yes, the scenario works well on Windows. I didn't try the solaris version, but I would expect that it behaves itself in this case in the same way." should be "Yes, the scenario works well on Windows. I didn't try the solaris version, but I would expect that it behaves itself in this case in the same way as Linux." ^^^^^^^^^^ If it's not fixed in time for OOo2.0, it should be fixed for OOo2.0.1. mmaher->flr: Your's methinks Considering the effort, the priority, the risk and our resource planning I've to retarget this issue to OOo Later. Using 1.9.104, if I open a word doc generated by Office 2000 that has embedded objects generated by copying and pasting from visio then the images appear. If I make a change and save, the images are replaced with a vaery large plug icon. If I close and reopen the images reappear. If I save the doc as an odt the same thing happens. I don't have visio installed on my machine. changing target target 3.0 Mikhail, is it something for Henning or perhaps better something you could investigate? I could try to investigate it, but it would probably take more time than Henning needs. As I have written the objects them self are stored. The reference from the document seems to be missing, and I must confess I do not know currently much about this part of word documents format. reset target due to lack of resources Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". |
