Hi everyone,
Yesterday I upgraded Libreoffice from 3.5.5-1 to 3.5.6-1, and I started to notice problems opening several *.ppt files. When I double click on the ppt, an "ASCII Filter Options" popup appears - I never saw this popup before. Anyway, I have to click "Ok" for Libreoffice to start importing the presentation. The problem is that after this operation is completed, Libreoffice doesn't show the *.ppt as usual; instead, the window remains blank for a long time, and I have to force quit. I tried this with several *.ppt files (at first I thought about a corrupted file), and this happened with every one. Downgrading the package to 3.5.5.1 solves the issue, and the files are displayed fine. Now, I'm not sure if this 'ASCII Filter Options' thing is a feature or a bug. Is anyone else seeing this? I didn't find anything related on the forum.
Thanks for your time,
Lorenzo
This happened to me less than five minutes ago. Unfortunately I don't have any solution. Lukas
