Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 95298
Delay AutoRecovery save while dragging objects
Last modified: 2013-01-29 21:43:14 UTC
I received a user request that AutoRecovery saving while dragging objects around in a large document. Perhaps the bug really is that you can't make any changes to a document while it is process of autosaving? If the file is on a slow (eg remote) filesystem this could cause problems even for relatively small files. Original Ubuntu bug report: " I am working on a large presentation that includes many photos. It takes a while to save the presentation to disk because of all the photos (it's over 300MB right now). Just now while I was dragging an image object to another place on a slide, the autosave kicked in, which stopped me from doing anything until the save completed. This is quite annoying. OO should be smart enough to avoid this. "
Sorry, I meant to say in the previous comment: I received a user request to delay AutoRecovery saving while dragging objects around in a large document.
Please check again with a more recent build like a OOo300m3.
