Staff Gabe Posted January 27, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 27, 2020 Hi @VectorWhiz, Can you attach the document in question so we can have a look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorWhiz Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 Gabe, Attached is the Publisher document. I tried to place the document created in Libre Office and exported as docx, but what was placed was an incomplete text Onn several attempts). Then I cut and pasted the text from Libre Office and when editing (applying text styles), it crashed. I continued to work in Libre Office for the time being and by now the document has progressed a lot.

Staff Gabe Posted January 29, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 29, 2020 I could not make it hang/crash. Any chance you can attach a screen recording of your workflow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorWhiz Posted January 30, 2020 Author Share Posted January 30, 2020 Thank you for checking. I am puzzled. I couldn't cause it to crash either..... I will try importing pasting again (since the document has progressed) and see what happens. Previously Publisher hanged without providing any message and did not respond to any type of input; the screen in which the crash occurred just froze. In Window's Task Manager no unusually high use of resources was visible, the program simply did not respond.

VectorWhiz Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 I tried to compile the book again. After placing the image in the Front cover Master Page and applying it to the first page, Publisher did not allow me to scroll. Closing the program and reopening it, made it possible to scroll again (...?). Placing the docx text created in Libre Office showed page breaks where I did not create them, that were impossible to correct. Copying and pasting the text worked well, as did the applying of text styles this time around.

Staff Gabe Posted January 31, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 31, 2020 The fix for the text style crash was part of the 535 build. Have you seen any more text style crashes since you've updated? I would be interested to see a screen recording of the scrolling issue, as we've only had a couple of reports, and could never replicate it. There was an issue in one of the previous betas where it could get stuck, but that got fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorWhiz Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 In the screendump below the slider is past halfway the pages (50 pages in total), but the largest part of page 3 and the bottom of the cover page remain visible, while scrolling does not occur. Zooming in and out is also not possible. After saving and closing the document, scrolling and zooming are possible. But the initial inability to scroll prevents to insert (cut & paste) or place the text of a placed document in the proper page. After re-opening the document and placing the text, it contains page breaks that can not be removed.
