Re: [libreoffice-documentation] wanting clarification on how to start submitting(?) updates to docs

Day rpj...@crashcourse.ca wrote: after a quick perusal of the last few days of posts on this list, i just want to make sure i'm starting off the right way in reviewing the current docs and noting content that could be updated. as i read it, with my brand new alfresco account, i can go here: http://alfresco.libreoffice.org/ log in, then go to Company Home - English Content - Documentation and select, say, the Getting Started Guide. i can see that the various chapters of that guide are individual .odt files so once i got confident, i could check one out, make changes, then check it back in (not prepared to do that just yet). Yes, that's the way. for example, say i was perusing the SettingUpLibreOffice chapter, where i notice a couple of things: * a couple references to LibraOffice rather than LibreOffice, which i assume are simple typoes Yes, quite right. * there's also a reference to the Help formatting option (allegedly under LibreOffice-General) which i simply don't see in my 3.4.1 writer session. Jean already commented on possible differences between versions, so I don't need to add more. is that the sort of thing that one starts off doing -- just some simple fixes? or have i misread something? thanks. Yes, this is already very useful contribution and a great way to get started. Again, Jean already said things in reply to you, but basically you're on the right track. p.s. i also see a reference to Enable systray quickstarter on Linux but i don't see that anywhere in my linux session. perhaps i just didn't look hard enough. What Linux are you using? If you're on Ubuntu 11.04, the quickstarter is not currently functioning under Unity. But, in any case, the quickstarter needs to be activated first (Tools Options LibreOffice Memory Enable systray QuickStarter) and then you need to log-out and log back in to your session (or simply restart your system). Only after that would you see it in the systray. Any problems or questions you have with Alfresco, don't hesitate to ask and I'll answer as quickly as possible.

This probably explains why Robert can't find it in 3.4.1. --Jean -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

This probably explains why Robert can't find it in 3.4.1. Jean just pointed out that this feature is not there in 3.4.1. Myself, I prefer to stick with the version of LibreOffice currently being distributed by Ubuntu, so I've still got 3.3.2 for the moment - I'm sure Ubuntu will be pushing out the new version of LibreOffice sometime in the very near future. So the new location of the Enable systray QuickStarter check box is something that will require updating at a point in the future, since it appears to have changed. OT: In any case, my experience with 10.04 and 11.04 is that the QuickStarter is not functioning properly at the present time in Ubuntu: when it is present in memory, you will be unable to restart your system or - IIRC - log out of your session. -- David Nelson -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to documentation+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
