There's your answer. Don't expect anything more from LibreOffice people. When it comes to Windows, they won't do anything unless it's a. very easy to do and, b. does not conflict with "how Linux works" – which is the way they think is "how it **should** be". LibreOffice is not a Windows program. It's a Linux program that happens to also work on Windows. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
