Comment 19 for bug 513980

Using libreoffice-writer 1:4.2.1-0ubuntu1~saucy1 on Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit and I am experiencing this bug as well.

Would it be possible to have some details about the current status of this bug please?

I would be so glad to be able to work efficiently in Writer with a document containing eps. Currently, I either have to disable graphic display or use png. I think that having a poor rendering of eps in Writer would be 100 times better then poor vertical scrolling. I can see why some people may disagree with that though... I'm talking only for my particular situation.

For example, I find the way Scribus is handling eps quite wonderful honestly. eps are rendered as a low quality preview (quality can be user defined), allowing you to move things around really smoothly. It is possible to activate a Preview mode of the document that will improve the rendering of the eps, but make the document less responsive.
