A thread to this effect is at https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?p=534803#p534803 It is possible that instabilities in other OpenOffice apps may also be caused by this clipboard manager; as I don't use Windows, I cannot test. -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
