Impress 3.0 hangs importing a .ppt document
Last modified: 2009-01-16 11:16:13 UTC
Trying to open this document, Impress from OOo 3.0 (en_US) hangs at around 40% during import. http://homepages.cwi.nl/~mk/onderwijs/adt/lectures/lecture06a.ppt
Reproducible. Works in 2.4.1. Reassigned.
keywords as per additional comments.
I had the same problem with one of my presentations and could lokate the bug to the attached slide. Within the slide file I deleted all elements until which the issue still occured. With the remaining elements I could no longer narrow down the problem: deleting either the table or the icons at the bottom made the problem disappear. The problem apperars to be the combination of these particular elements. (Version/Plattform: OO 3.0.0, OOO300m9, Build:9358 on Windows XP Professinal.)
Created attachment 59260 [details] OO Impress freezes when importing this PowerPoint slide
sj: This issue has been fixed in the meantime. I checked this with OOO300m16 and DEV300m38.
