Would it be possible to attach the ppt file to the bug report. If that is not possible you can send them to me directly via mail. Hi! I can't find those damn .PPS little devils, but lot of other .PPS I never opened before worked. However, too much .PPS files rendered wrongly using KPresenter so I needed to open them in OpenOffice... Thanks for your support! You don't specify which version you are using, but I suppose it's 2.2.x? If not, i suggest that you upgrade to that. If it *is* 2.2, it would be really helpful if we could see the document. We don't want any crashes in there. I was also going to write: We have fixed lots of rendering bugs in trunk, which will become 2.3 soonish, but if you have any specific ones you want solved then plesase also register them here. Hello! I'm currently have installed KPresenter 2.2.1 on Arch Linux 64-bits with spanish (and several other related) packages. Although I didn't found the offending presentation (was a powerpoint presentation) I still have a lot of PPS right here so I will check them tonight and post back any feedback I have, whenever they make crash KPresenter or don't show as supposed, etc. Since you're interested in make KPresenter a real good application I will upload the presentations that KPresenter have problems loading/playing so you can get them and apply needed fixes. Thank you very much for your time and your work, I'll be reporting back in few hours. Dear devs, sorry for the late reply, I'm up to the throat (literally) of all sorts of things to do these days with very little time for anything else... but enough whining! ;) I have tested a batch of .PPS presentations with this results: 1. Nearly all of them DIDN'T load succefully, that is, all but one actually DO LOAD buy they showed very ugly. This didn't happened with OO Impress 2. At least one of the .PPS crashed KPresenter on load :'( Following I'll provide two urls here, one for the evil .PPS that crashed KPresenter once and again and the other to the full .PPS batch which also include the offending .PPS: 1. http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/5/7/2852027/Desperdiciohumano.pps 2. http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/5/7/2852027/pps.tar.gz Please tell me if I can help you in any other way. Thank you very much for your work! :D Best, -Martín I have now looked through all your files and there were no crashes, not even for the one you told us about. So it seems that KOffice trunk is better in that regard. That means that this bug should be resolved as FIXED. That said, I did see a couple of other issues, like some missing contents in textboxes. Would it be ok if we issued other bug reports for that and attached the documents from you that exhibit the problem? That said, I did see a couple of other issues, like some missing contents in textboxes. Would it be ok if we issued other bug reports for that and attached the documents from you that exhibit the problem? I think that would be ok. Thanks for everything :) -Martín On Wednesday, August 11, 2010 15:06:21 Martín Cigorraga wrote:

Hi Martin,
A couple of days ago, I sent you a mail asking if you would allow us to take
your pps files and put then in our test database. If you didn't get that
mail, I can resend it, I may have used the wrong address.
Best regards,
Inge Walllin
Dear Inge, my bad! I indeed received your email and I was sure I already answer it, please forgive me for this delay. Those .pps I send you are the ones you receive attached to emails (in chains most of time), tipically send by your female friends =) So go on and feel free to use it as I presume they haven't any license at all. Once again, sorry for the delay and thank you very much for your work. Regards, Martín |
