Hi All,
I'm new to the list and have just changed to a Mac Book Pro.
The Mac version of LibreOffice does not operate in quite the same way as
with the Windows version you do not get the option to select the
individual components only the splash screen comes up unless you set
them up yourself as with some other features that the manuals suggest
should work as short cuts do not.
When I get some time after the recovering from the floods here (we only
got floods not the cyclones) in my area of Queensland. I may become more
active in the documentation area and help with improving some of the
documentation in particular spreadsheets.
Till then
Regards Ian Leyton

Hi :)
For Mac documentation. I found this on the users list.
The aim was to find a way of starting Calc straight away = bypassing the
splash-screen. I'm not clear why the user couldn't just click on "Calc" instead
of "LibreOffice" or "Writer" but there we go.
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Startup with Calc on OSX
Answering my own mail ;-)
I found out how to do it on Snow Leopard.
Open AppleScript Editor (found in /Applications/Utilities)
Create a new AppleScript with the content
do shell script "/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice -calc"
Save As Application (nor as Script)
I saved it in /Applications
In Finder, use "Show Package Contents" from the context menu and navigate to
Contents/Resources
In Finder, also use "Show Package Contents" on LibreOffice.app and navigate to
Contents/Resources
of that app.
Copy (not move!) the file
calc.icns
> From the LibreOffice Resources to the LibreOfficeCalc Resources.
In LibreOffice Resources, rename applet.icns to appletxxx.icns
( whatever other name you want)
Rename calc.icns to applet.icns
You are finished, you have an app icon which will start LibreOffice Calc
immediately.

I would like to immediately open Calc when I start LibreOffice on OSX
since I am using this component in most cases.
Is there a way of configuring LibreOffice that way on OSX?
