Hello,
I have a computer, about 1 year old, running Windows XP. The store I bought it from had
your "Open Office" (1.1.0)already installed on it when I purchased the system
(NEW System, not a Used one)
For quite sometime, it worked fine for documents. However, about 4 months ago,
something happened when I had a document opened.
Now...every time I open a "SAVED" document, or try to open a NEW one, the screen comes up with a VERY LARGE tool bar at the top showing
"3D Effects"..Donuts...
(along with other selections like Backgrounds, Bullets, all in color)
I have to go to "View Full Screen" to make any changes on the document, or see
what is written on the page below the LARGE tool bar.
How Can I make this "GO AWAY"...I prefer to open the document, and see the
format, layout that I need to work with.
I went to the computer store, finally, this weekend..they said to contact you
at your web site.
Please tell me if there is some button or toggle to reset, so it works like it
use to.....I don't like having this come up on my documents, covering the full
screen.
Thank you,
Pam D

Hi Pam,
The "fix" is relatively simple. OOo remembers the last "view" you had
when you used it last so if you have "Gallery" open when you close the
document then it will open it when you relaunch the program. The
toggle button that you so rightly assume is there is in the top tool
bar on the right. It looks like a little picture frame. Mouse over it
and the "Gallery" text box will popup. Click that and it will go away.
If it's not visible, right click on the blank area of the toolbar and
then click "visible buttons" in the dropdown menu. The gallery button
is right near the bottom of that menu. Clicking it will toggle the
gallery button on or off your toolbar .
HTH
Cheers
Yo
