The 3 phases came from the reality in the past - at I remeber this way. We made some last minutes changes into the build, even when it was after the deadline. So, IMHO we should count with this. That was the reason for the 3 different entries. Of course this can be changed. It was just a first try to create a plan.

Image loss in Writer documents
There is an existing bu https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=59915 on image loss in Writer documents. On the en-Forum, John-Ha has made a useful post of diagnostic information, which clearly links this problem to the memory allocations for graphics in OpenOffice (and garbage collection?). John_Ha's post is at https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&p=314079#p314079 With modern memory sizes the memory allocations in OpenOffice may be too conservative and should be revised upwards, but this may involve major surgery to the code. Perhaps such a revision should be targeted for the next major release? -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Is this a correct assessment? Could these issues be rectified by more information on the use of Memory Options and how they effect performance?

In particular I would expect that John_Ha's informtion and machine would be most helpful, as coming from a computer adept working with a well specified machine. One does not wish to have to flag OpenOffice with a warning "BEWARE! Do not attempt to use more than 30(say) images in any document". > Could these issues be rectified by more information on the use of Memory > Options and how they effect performance? I doubt that will help - more people, with less skills, are using OpenOffice; they expect it to work 'out of the box', without tweaking. Anyway, let's see what others on the dev list think; a graphics cache of 256MB max seems unreasonably low in the days of 4/8/16 GB machines. > > There's an old doc about this: > https://www.openoffice.org/about_us/configuration_guide.html > > but it could probably use some updating and better explanation. > > > > > - > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > > > > > > > -- > - > MzK > > "In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, > an invincible summer." > -- Albert Camus -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Reporting a problem with the OpenOffice website
Hello! I have recently successfully downloaded the Apache OpenOffice 4.1.0 software on my new computer. Tonight, however, I went back to the web site to download it on my old computer (Windows XP) and the "selection" boxes are empty preventing me from doing so. Would you please check this out and get back to me as to the resolution? I would greatly appreciate it since I'm trying to transfer my documents from one computer to the other and need to recreate them in order to do so. (i.e., my documents are in Word Perfect) Thank you very much! Carol B.

The selection boxes should not prevent you downloading a version. If your computers are running Windows (or have the same operating system) you can transfer the downloaded installation file from one to the other and install it there. If your documents are in WordPerfect format, you can transfer them to OpenOffice format (.ODF/.odt) using a free service such as www.zamzar.com. OpenOffice 4.1 will not read WordPerfect format, but the transfers via zamzar will open, although, as with all transfers, they may need some fine tweaking. -- Rory O'Farrell - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
