Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 111191
Active-X Control doesn't work correctly / is defect.
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:23:50 UTC
When using IE8 on WinXP and Active-X Control is installed, a click on a link to an office document opens the doc in the office and not in IE. Trying the same with IE8 on Win7 opens the doc in IE but only in the upper half of the browser. The statusbar is painted in the middle of the browser. Resizing of IE8 results in strange repaint problems and heavy flickering. This was reproducible on various mashines. The same happens when using an older build, like a m13.
.
The problem on Windows XP is fixed in cws fwk141 now. It is a regression, so it should be handled as a showstopper I assume. The problem with the ActiveX control window taking only half of the browser is a completely different problem and is described in the issue 109039.
Adding keyword regression for the Windows XP issue which is fixed with this issue. According to MAV the regression has been introduced by 64 Bit fixes we did for the OOo 3.2 release.
adjusting target to 3.2.1
cd->of: Please verify.
mav->of: Additionally to the test on 32-bit Windows XP system, please test the fix with 64-bit and 32-bit IE on 64-bit Windows XP.
of: Looks good for me in cws fwk141
