Re: [libreoffice-users] Copy/past a table changes following paragraph style

2023-07-23 Thread Steve Edmonds 

Hi Harald.
Hopefully you can download a document created from scratch here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SFA7STG_5rSg435gZTZ_mhWoz5XMqO_d/view?usp=sharing

The procedure described in the document is a little different from my 
first description but replication of the bug seems more consistent. In 
my original document inserting above a blank line is not always required 
and the change of style can occur before or after the inserted table.

Hi Steve,
I think you can assume that your description is not a normal 
obsolescence.
I tested it on my end and the table can be inserted without another 
blank line or changed paragraph style.
You can also test this yourself with a new fresh file, short 
paragraphs and a minimal table.
However, it will be a bit difficult to find out what the problem is in 
your described file.
From experience I know that the end of a paragraph can cause a 
different style to appear for the rest of the text.

This is a mess that usually cannot be tracked well.
A control character could have been inserted by mistake, text from 
other sources could have been inserted,
an already contaminated document template could have been used or 
other things.
You will only be able to solve the problem if you rebuild the document 
and insert the existing text as unformatted text and then use only 
styles.
If you want, you can also upload a sample file (1-2 pages with the 
problem) somewhere in the cloud and post the link on the list so 
someone can look at it and examine it.


Kind regards
Harald

I have an arrangement on a page; (LO 7.5.4.2)

text in paragraph style A
text in paragraph style A
table (containing paragraph style B)
text in paragraph style A
text in paragraph style A

If I highlight the table (little arrow top left), copy and then paste 
the table, say between the 2 lower style A paragraphs above, a blank 
line is inserted below the table but in Default Paragraph Style which 
I always have to change back to style A.


If I copy a portion including text before and after the table, as in;

aph style A
table (containing paragraph style B)
tex

And paste it between the 2 lower style A paragraphs then the text 
"aph style A" changes to Default Paragraph Style.


If I copy a portion including the full paragraph before and some text 
after the table, as in;


text in paragraph style A
table (containing paragraph style B)
tex

And paste it between the 2 lower style A paragraphs then no change to 
Default Paragraph Style  occurs and styles remain as desired.


Can I assume this variable change to Default Paragraph Style is not 
the desired functionality?

Re: [libreoffice-users] last cursor position

2023-07-23 Thread Andrew Pitonyak 

I loaded a roughly 700 page document that had been saved on page 35. I was left 
on page 51 (of 683), which is really page 47 with the way that I modify page 
numbering in the book. Shift+F5 takes me back to page 35 (real page 31) where I 
had left off. 

I am running on the latest release of Fedora and I have version 7.5.3.2 of LO. 
Pretty sure that LO was installed from the repos rather than a direct download, 
but I simply do not remember.

Apparently, we are in the minority of the more than 200 million users of
LibreOffice for whom this is a problem. I can only surmise the rest of 200
million users are only editing short 1 or 2 page documents so never
encounter the problem.

I wasn't aware of the SHIFT F5 workaround and wound up removing the distro
supplied version and installed 7.0.6.2 from the Document Foundation's
download site. 7.0.6.2 is the last version without the bug.

Would I prefer to use a more up to date version? Absolutely! But I
routinely edit documents of 100 pages or more and having to hunt down the
last edited location is a major problem.

Some day, when I don't have anything else to do, I'll set up another
computer and install the latest version to see if I can live with the
SHIFT-F5 work around.

Until then I'll stick with 7.0.6.2.

The mailing list strips off attachments.
You need to upload them to a file sharing platform (I use mediafire).

Re: [libreoffice-users] last cursor position

2023-07-23 Thread Tim Lloyd 

Thomas,

this has got me beaten. It was supposed to be fixed in 7.5.0 but that
didn't happen.

I was advised that SHIFT-F5 takes you to your most recent edit ehich it
does. I ended up recording a macro of this keystroke until a fix is in
place.

BTW I am using Fedora 38

Regards

Good afternoon
I am sure, this question has been asked a million times.
When I open a document, the cursor is NOT in the position of the last
edit.
In fact, it appears at random locations, different each time I open
the document.

I have modified the user data section under tools, but that does not
change anything.
Deliberately editing the document at different locations, closing and
reopening it (same computer),
the cursor still pops up at totally unpredictable locations.
This happens apparently also with other (not created by me) documents.

Is there a smart trick, anything short of resetting the user profile?
