[libreoffice-users] Numbering/Lists - promote/demote issue
Hi. Before unnecessarily filing I thought I would check if the following would be classed a bug. To see the problem. Create a list or numbering with list or numbering style of say 3 lines. Demote the second line 1 level and the third line another level. Clicking on each of the lines you can see bottom right of the window Numbering1:Level 3 etc. Modify the style so level 2 Options has Number None and Character Style None. In LO 4.3 if I click on the line the status bar says Numbering1:Level 2 but I no longer have the tool bar to promote or demote this entry. If I modify the style to Number Bullet, Character Style Place Holder and Character Space (32) I can then promote and demote with the tool bar.

[libreoffice-users] problem with import of excel file, cells contain new lines
Hello I periodically receive excel files (generated by Office 2010 I think, but saved in the old binary format). Some of these columns cause me problems, since they seem to contain spaces and even newlines. I could correct that manually, but since the file contains hundred of lines this is cumbersome. So the question is whether there exist any formating function which could resolve the issue. I attach an (shorted) example of the problem and would appreciate any help.

So there are eleven things you have chosen not to install. Either: o (recommended) Click on the down-arrow to the left of Optional Components and select the option to install all of them. Or: o Click on the plus sign to the left of Optional Components to show the menu of those eleven items and then use their down-arrows to make individual choices about what you want to install. I trust this helps.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Solver bug
Hi :) If you are able to write Python or C++ code then the fastest way might be to write an Extension/Add-on/Plugin to fix the immediate problem. For the longer-term you could then upload that Extension to the LibreOffice Extensions page and let the devs know. Probably best if you use an OpenSource license such as LGPL or MPL so that other people can move it into main branch after testing and maybe editing it. A slightly longer, but more direct, route might be to join the devs and maybe ask for a Mentor or for guidance and then work on that bug directly. If you are more like most of us here then maybe try using Gnumeric spreadsheet program instead. It's much smaller and lighter and faster because it's a dedicated spreadsheet program and doesn't have to worry about fitting in with other programs/modules such as word-processors or anything.

Re: [libreoffice-users] installation problem LO4.4 - linux mint
Hi :) So to install that PPA from a command-line the command is probably something like; sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:libreoffice/ppa I'm not sure what the -y tag does though. This is the PPA for the latest Fresh so it might be good for your own machine but your clients and any machine that you can't easily access to help with any problems that might arise and any machines that don't have a decent internet connection might want to settle down on a Still from some other PPA or the regular repos or something.

Correct. I added the ppa, did a refresh, and was offered the new versions in synaptic. (Irrelevant probably, but synaptic then refused to actually do the upgrade - but this has happened lately for various packages, not just LO. Using apt (or was it apt-get?) directly performed all the upgrades correctly.) Mike, I use the LO PPA to install all the upgrades to my 64-bit Linux Mint box (currently 17.1) , which means that they are installed automatically via the Update Manager - i e, I don't have to look for them in Synaptic or use «apt-get» in a terminal to install them. Very convenient, but as I recently mentioned on another thread, Base seems to be missing from the latest version (4.4.0.3) installed on this computer - in any event, when I click the Base icon in LibreOffice nothing at all happens, and when I enter «soffice --base» in a terminal, LibreOffice opens not to Base, but to Writer !... I'm not a frequent user of Base, but I can't recall encountering this problem with previous versions of LO on Mint. I note that all LO services, including Base, work just fine on my Windows 64-bit 8.1 box. Any suggestions as to what may be wrong and how to fix it would be greatly appreciated !... Henri PPA installs are fine, if you want to run the one that is currently on the PPA list. Personally, I have not changed over to the 4.4.0.x package. I usually wait for the .2 or .3 version before I switch. Because of an extended illness, I have not started testing 4.4.0.x on one of my systems. I do this before I install the new line onto my main/default system. It might be helpful to have someone to post the PPA script here so those who want to try it can get the correct install procedure. Tim, here the URL of the «LibreOffice packaging team» 's webpage on the Launchpad site : *https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa* https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa Henri Thanks, I have saved the info in a Writer document. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to- unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
