Re: [libreoffice-users] Calc formula tool tips - possible to turn off?

[gordon cooper]

I like your second suggested option Bruce, i.e. None : Standard : Extended.

It would be a good option for all tooltips.

I always use a image editor - i.e. GIMP - to make images look like 
watermarks.
Then I add it to the document as a background.

The key was how you took the original image and modify it with 
brightness and contrast controls till it looked like a watermark. This 
was with OOo since LO was not created yet.

My best one was a letterhead logo that printed out using a laser printer 
and would not be viewable when you used a scanner or copy machine.  I 
used it for a not-for-profit organization that I have been on the board 
with since 2007[?].

Hi,

For those wanting an instant solution for LibreOffice Writer watermarks,
I've created a template which can be freely downloaded and used from here:

The watermarks are SVG-format (small file size, 100 percent quality).
I'll be updating this with additional watermark page styles now and then.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

No, I do not know of any way to turn the formula tool tips off. I even
had a look at the advanced settings (Tools... Options... LibreOffice...
Advanced... Advanced Settings) and I could not find anything.

Rgds,

Rémy Gauthier.

Re: [libreoffice-users] LO Writer in UbuntuStudio 16.04.1

[leleu]

with compliments of my Ubuntu 16.04 (et LO 5.1.4.2), and I don't 
remember any special java installation.


leleu@leleu-portable:~$ /usr/bin/java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_91"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-8u91-b14-3ubuntu1~16.04.1-b14)

If I remember correctly, you may have several versions of java and 
choose which one you want to run with LO.


I do not remember which version of LO is installed, by default, when I 
upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04, but I currently run the 5.2.0.4 version 
on "this laptop".  I still have not upgraded my 6.25 TB [plus 6.0 TB 
USB backup] main desktop from 14.04 to 16.04, since I am having issues 
sitting at my desk.  I believe I was running a later version of 4.1.x 
or 4.2.x on it.

Re: [libreoffice-users] LO Writer in UbuntuStudio 16.04.1

[Philip Jackson]

Hi :

Further to my last note, I found an interesting note in the faq on:

http://writer2latex.sourceforge.net/index16.html

that identified the problem and solutions.

These 2 LO extensions causing me problems both required two packages
that were missing on the clean install of UbuntuStudio 16.04.1 :

default-jre
libreoffice-java-common

Having installed these 2, both extensions can be enabled and appear to
work although time will tell as to how well they work on Writer 5.1.4.2.

It is a bit of a puzzle as to why the 16.04 install did not include any
java stuff. I wonder if it fell out because of the fixation about 'free'
software ?  I suppose one could claim that LO can work perfectly well
without any extensions which require java.

Thanks for your idea, Tom, which started me in the right direction.

Regards,
Philip

Re: [libreoffice-users] LO Writer in UbuntuStudio 16.04.1

[Philip Jackson]

Hi Tom :

Thanks for the hint. You're certainly onto something. When I checked
Tools > Options > LibreOffice Advanced, I found that there was no jre
listed.

It seems that UbuntuStudio 16.04 doesn't load a jre by default.  I
loaded the default-jre package and now LO Options indicates that it has
located  java-8-openjdk.

(This alone remedied my Sigil installation which couldn't display html
code - not a concern of this list, I know, but it does show that a jre
was not even indicated as a dependency of Sigil)

1.  Now when I try to enable the Write2xhtml extension, it still doesn't
get enabled but the error message has changed - it is now :

  "java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException"

I don't how to remedy this. Maybe someone else has a clue ?

2.  Unfortunately, trying to enable LanguageTool looks more seriously
flawed :

"[jni_uno bridge error] UNO calling Java method writeRegistryInfo:
non-UNO exception occurred: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
com/sun/star/task/XJobExecutor"

followed by a stack trace of a full page listing.

So the remaining problems are somehow java related.

Regards,
Philip
