[upstream] Calc becomes extremely slow after copying range

[Waldir Leoncio]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I've noticed that, even on empty, newly-created documents, whenever I select and copy a range that span more than 4 columns, Calc gets extremely unresponsive. I find this a particularly interesting bug, because it doesn't matter how many rows I copy. I can copy range A1:A1048576 and Calc stays fairly fast. If I select something like A1:Z1, however, the program just starts to take a few seconds to respond to my inputs. I hope someone can reproduce this bug, because it is really annoying for people who work with big datasheets.

Waldir Leoncio, does LibreOffice Calc work for you? If using Lucid or Maverick feel free to perform at the Terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install libreoffice-calc

Hello Christopher. I'm on natty now and Calc is working fine again, I think
this bug can be closed now. Thanks!
