.xls file that imports correctly but cannot be re-saved (41.50 KB, application/octet-stream)

Description Dan Merillat 2004-03-08 18:52:23 UTC 
I can load the attached .xls file correctly, but when I save/quit/reopen
the logo image and text objects vanish.  Lots of warnings/errors:

** (gnumeric:5492): CRITICAL **: file ../../src/position.c: line 173
(parse_pos_init_sheet): assertion `IS_SHEET (sheet)' failed


** (gnumeric:5494): WARNING **: Trying to fallback to 'Sans'

** (gnumeric:5494): WARNING **: GnomePrint: Requested Arial but using Sans
(Sans Regular 10.000000)

** (gnumeric:5494): WARNING **: Trying to fallback to 'Sans'

(gnumeric:5494): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: file gdk-pixbuf-loader.c: line 424
(gdk_pixbuf_loader_write): assertion `buf != NULL' failed

** (gnumeric:5494): WARNING **: Unable to display image

Comment 2 Dan Merillat 2004-03-08 19:22:53 UTC 
As an update, creating a new project, inserting an image, save/reload
in gnumeric format and we get the same problem.

This may be a problem with image objects, not with Excel importing
Comment 3 Jon Kåre Hellan 2004-08-19 08:53:03 UTC 
Image objects are fixed in CVS, both XL and Gnumeric format
