Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 155
bitmap converting problem
Last modified: 2003-12-06 14:52:34 UTC
When I do a drawing in stardraw if I then paste it into MSWord 97 some edges are missing. For example, draw a box and paste into word, the right and bottom edges are missing. Workarounds : - don't use MSWord - draw a larger invisible box around your drawing, then select all and paste the result into MSWord - the invisible box may still be missing edges, but you can't see it anyway.
That bug is reproducible: Create an invisible square or rectangle in Draw/Impress/Writer or Calc, copy and paste it in PowerPoint (or Word) and the bug occurs.
Clarification : you don't need to have an invisible box to observe the bug, a normal box works fine. Drawing an invisible box around the real drawing is my workaround : it seems to extend the selection enough so that the real drawing isn't clipped.
The bug is not a copy/paste problem, it happens when objects are converted to a bitmap.
Bug seems to be fixable
Bug will be fixed in SRC638J
close it
