Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 106522
selecting some cells (vertically) and pasting them onto a row hangs the application
Last modified: 2014-03-24 10:27:56 UTC
i selected some cells (D2:D320) and right clicked the row F and pasted them... the Calc application hangs and hug the cpu after several minutes... i killed the process. the cells had text data (no calculations). both source and destination if i run the same operation on a small amount of cells it works fine. (lets say... 40-80 cells more or less) it happened 3 times on different occasions (different sheets, of course) i can reproduce it. any time.
Please attach a document showing the problem. Which OOo version are you using ? It is the derived version provided by your distribution or the official version from OpenOffice.org website ? If it is distro version, please try with the official version.
i am using Debian OOo 3.1.1-5 (3.1.1 - OOo 310m9 build 9420) no need to attach a document. just... 1. fill cells A1:A300 with "sometext" 2. select cells A1:A300 3. right click header of row D & paste that selection. 4. application hangs.
I can reproduce with ubuntu 9.10, OOo 3.1.1 distro version, but cannot reproduce with official version OOO320m4.
Note that the distro version (aka go-oo) has the row limit extended to 1 million rows, while the Sun version is still fixed at 64k. That makes a huge difference when pasting data to the entire column, since the destnation area is now 16 times as large. On my machine the describe operation takes about 10 seconds, though my machine is pretty fast development machine, so 10 seconds is considered a very long time. ;-) @nadavkav: can you at least verify that the paste operation eventually finishes? Depending on the speed of your machine it may take somewhere between 10 seconds to a few minutes, but I need to know whether this is just a poor performance, or a real hang. Thanks. --Kohei
@Kohei: On my machine it takes 10 min to finish paste operation. OOo doesn´t crash. CPU T2500 @ 2.00GHz, 1GB RAM
@raal: thanks for the confirmation. This is then related to the row limit increase.
confirming
I'll look into this.
I can confirm it on large selections with text (I tried with about 500 e-mail addresses). I takes more then a minute. Inserting small - number only - selections was fast on my laptop. model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5750 @ 2.00GHz I tested on Ubuntu 9.10/32 bit With my build of go-oo version (oxygenoffice) 3.2 m5
OOo 3.3 is in showstopper-mode. This issue is too old to be a stopper for the current release. I change the target to OOo 3.x. Please change the target accordingly when a fix is near to be integrated into a code line.

reset to confirmed (no assignee) while reproducing the progress bar shows adjusting row heights and AOO is busy for a while not sure if this is still a valid issue because progress is indicated
