Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 11096
BUG with copy-paste in relation mozilla-oo
Last modified: 2003-10-30 14:02:26 UTC
When we copy eg. small amount of html page (max A4 page) copy-paste works ok, but when we copy an larger amount of data eg. A4*3 (freshmeat.net) then OO freezes (sometimes X need restart). I think that this won't be a hard to patch....since it copies ok smaller amount of data.
This kind of copy paste works on Windows (98 & XP) Somebody reproduced it on Linux and Solaris? Thanks for submitting.
I forgot to say that I'm using Linux so : This don't work under Linux as it should.More data->more problems, oo freezes (sometimes X too ). Just go to freshmeat.net -> select all -> copy -> paste into oo writer. Testing environment : PIII 1200 512MB Ram , NVIDIA GeForce 440Mx with nvidia driver, hdd 36GB free space. Distros : RH 7.3 , RH 8.0, Debian 3.0 , Mandrake 9.0 OO : 1.0.2 Mozilla : 1.21 Kernels : 2.4.21-pre4 (all distros), 2.4.19 (all distros) regards
Now, I've just tried 1.1 beta and it's terrible :( Test machine is PIII with 512MB , RedHat 7.3 with kernel 2.4.21-pre4 and kernel 2.4.19 Copy-Paste operations between mozilla-OO doesn't work, sometimes it freezes X . This kind of stuff work in windows. That means that I cannot do next things: 1.type freshmeat.net in mozilla -> Select All -> Copy 2.In SWriter Edit-Paste (or Paste Special) If I select few lines of text (not all text, just few lines) , I can paste it with middle mouse button.
There are known bugs in regard to copy&paste transfers from Linux to Mozilla and KDE. Reference Issue 483. One work around is to copy to and paste from a text editor in between the applications. I adjusted the priority from P1 to P3. This might be an issue that they won't (can't) fix, because it may be something that Mozilla needs to address. I am not sure, so I did not change the status of this issue.

Reassign issue to owner of selected subcomponent, from reporter sorry I repeat again, last time did't work :(
Hi zeljan, thanks for using and supporting OpenOffice... I tried to copy the content of the following page into Writer: "http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/guidelines.html" I got in trouble because that page is build out of tables which cells are larger than 1 page... A table cell can't be taller or wider than a page in writer, which is a known limitation! I think this is a double of issue 2109! *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 2109 ***
It's a double of 2109 and the work on it has started so I'm closing...
