There are a number of annoying bugs in LO on OSX that make the
experience sub-standard for most Mac lovers/aficionados :
- the whole UI look and feel - this is unlikely to change in the near
future, unless at least one developer shows up and knows how to recode
the interface to look and behave like an OSX app, good luck with
interfacing that with the VCL abstraction layer that LO uses - that's
the price of multi-OS support, although to be fair to other multi-OS
apps, the problem really does lie in the use of the LO Abstract Window
Toolkit, which continues to look like it came from the early 80's -
using Glade to produce GTK-like UIs is not IMHO the solution to this
problem, but I digress ;
- unsigned app - hey, user do you really want to allow just any app on
your shiny OSX ? - to be fair, work is currently ongoing to resolve this ;
- drag and drop support, notably of images into Writer ;
- multimedia insertion/playback in Impress support - this has suffered
are regression over LO 3.3.x ;
- incomplete copy/paste support - various modules support varying
degrees of functional copy/paste or even drag and drop ;
- non-functional AFS share read/write/lock - for companies that use OSX
as their server OS and work environment, this is a red light to
deployment of LO ;
- accessibility issues and instability in LO when using accessibility
tools ;
- inconsistent font rendering and kerning.
Apple users like the quasi-perfection they experience with the basic OS
and most apps designed for it. LO does not provide that experience, and
is in many respects still light years away from it. Even compared to
NeoOffice, LO lacks UI finesse and OS integration.
I say all this as someone who has been using LO on Mac, and prior to
that OOo, for nearly 10 years, and having used StarOffice, OOo, and now
LO on Linux and occasionally Windows.
