Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Time-lag response in v. 4.4.0.1 Writer - Update

Hello Tom

Thanks for your further thoughts on this.

As it so happens, I did something else which seems to have fixed the 
problem (touch wood). Basically, I uninstalled 4.4 and reinstalled 
4.3.5.2 (fresh), uninstalled the LibO plug in from Mendeley, reinstalled 
it and took it for a run. At first, same problem, then after a few 
minutes (and testing this problem on another document written previously 
and with Mendeley references) the lag stopped.

I'm tempted to go back to 4.4. but since I need this for production work 
(i.e. my thesis), I think I'll stick with this version (4.3.5.2) for now.

Thanks again.

All the best

Sun
