Summary: Cannot insert pictures from file due to rapid folder switching in Office 2007 Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: zachary@stewarts.net
In all currently working Office 2007 apps (Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, Excel), choosing Insert and then clicking the Insert Picture button causes the file chooser dialog to open. When it opens, the folder that it is supposed to look in switches back and forth between My Documents and Desktop, or whatever the last two chosen folders were. The switching never ends, and because of the switching, no file is displayed. Manually typing the name of the file will not allow it to be inserted, even if it exists in both folders.
Interestingly enough, this switching occurs only when the cursor is above the Word (or Publisher, or PowerPoint, or whatever) window, and it switches faster the faster the cursor moves. If the mouse is hovered above another window, say a console window, the switching stops. No files are viewable, however.
It appears as though every switch, it throws the following error:
fixme:shell:SHGetFileInfoW SHGFI_OVERLAYINDEX unhandled
This bug is bad for Word, but in my opinion cripples Publisher and PowerPoint.
