Re: Draw OLE object embedded in Writer shows only one page

When you embed an OLE object, a preview of the first page is displayed. What are you waiting for? If the file has several pages that you want to display, you've to copy and paste each separately. Why copy paste? That defeats the purpose of OLE embedding, doesn't it? I could, I suppose, create a new...

Re: OOo v3.1 Draw is Still Really slow now

I'd suggest you disconnected from Internet (for safety), then disable F-Secure. Does that improve maters? Tried this, and as suspected, it doesn't change much. I don't have this problem with other applications, including for e.g. Writer. I Have you latest drivers installed for your video chipset, d...

Draw OLE object embedded in Writer shows only one page

I'm using draw to make diagrams to insert into Writer. I created several diagrams in one Draw file, but then embedding them, I get only the first page. Expanding the embedded window in Writer doesn't change this -- one only sees the first page of the Draw file.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Re: [Solved] OOo v3.1 Draw is Really slow now

Even with all the changes recommended, at least under xp, it is still very very slow. Why is this declared Solved? The original poster who started the thread set it to be Solved, because for him, it is. If you have a different issue you need to start a new thread. Very few are going to bother with ...
