Wait a minute this IS NOT a bug in pre 3.5 LO or OOo. I have files that go back a decade that have very complex geometries like these and there is no problem, NONE. I can open them in 1x, 2x and pre 3.5 the 3x series no problem. That includes OOo, LO and IBM Symphony. There was never a problem hundreds of documents.
This IS a nasty bug in the specification that from my point of view needs to be fixed. Slavishly following the spec document. to break more than a decade of functionality is poor product management. The end user does not care that the specification is flawless beautiful only that the product work forward and back. The ODF file specification should be amended ASAP to match what every implementation has done to maintain continuity. Breaking that continuity is was loses user trust and confident, not mindlessly following the spec the end user be damned! The spec and the design do need to follow each other but that does not mean you never bend the spec to match the reality on the ground. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979320 Title: Particular Subtracted shapes not compatible LibO 3.4 - 3.5 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/979320/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
