Re: [orca-list] Libreoffice Calc gets slower and slower with Orca running

[Alfonzo Cuellar <sunrisingsoul gmail com>]

Hello there,

Using Orca 3.20 and the current Libreoffice-Fresh 5.1, results in Orca 
become unresponsive, as well as the system becoming unresponsive when 
using Libreoffice Writer.

I noticed that there are a bunch of icons popping up everywhere while 
reading or editing documents now. I have no idea what they are, or what 
they do. Could this be the cause? These icons appear when you edit a 
document say, adding or subtracting spaces, doing something with a 
paragraph, or editing words and such. I am unsure if this appears in 
Libreoffice Calc. Further, these icons seem to be animated.

Hope this provides some help Joanie.

Take care,

Alfonzo Cuellar
