<pre>Description:
Executive Summary: I really like using embedded OLE objects but they tend to be
buggy and I frequently need to restart LibreOffice to edit them, but the only
way for me to do the things I want to do...
Here's a specific example:
I have a sheet, with an OLE writer document anchored to a cell. I put some
fancy stuff in the child document and then exit back to the sheet. Then I go
back into the child document and there is a large gray border around the left
and bottom side of the pop-up window and the scroll bars are not in the right
spot. If I make any changes inside the child document at this time, when I exit
the pop-up the results will be translated and cut off. Most of the time, If I
resize the popup window one pixel, it will fix the pop-up and the edit will
work as expected. If I ever fail to resize the window before closing it, I will
need to restart LO before it will work correctly again.
