Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 106588
Writer crashes during replace with hidden changes
Last modified: 2009-11-03 21:29:29 UTC
I have a draft document (copyright, & therefore not attachable) which have to precis. I turned on record changes using the menu (is there another way)? I cut out various chunks. I then unchecked "show changes" so that they were hidden. I then did a search and replace, looking for double space and replacing it with a single space. Writer crashed immediately. It asked for a crash report, which I filled in and sent, but at this point I hadn't realised it was linked to the search and replace. On trying it a second time, and crashing a second time, I made the connection. To test my theory I accepted all changes and then performed the search and replace, no crash. I have searched for this issue and am a little surprised not to have found it already reported, so perhaps it's just my poor searching. If so, I apologise.
