Priority: medium
Bug ID: 76534
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Other: Windows Explorer context menu New option
doesn't work for OpenDocument files
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.5.3 release
Component: Libreoffice
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
A full description is provided with the first post of the following thread.
http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/31748/how-to-make-win-explorer-context-menu-new-option-work-for-opendocument-files-creation-after-installing-libreoffice-415
Steps to reproduce:
1. Uninstalled Libreoffice (LO) 3.6.5
2. Installed LO 4.2.2, without the Calc and Maths components or applications,
so only installing Writer, Draw and Impress.
3. Double-clicked on an existant .odt file to see that LO will start up and
load the file, and this worked fine.
4. Tried to create a new and blank .odt file by using the Explorer context menu
New option and this failed; doing nothing.
5. Tried, using same method, to create new Impress and Draw files, and this
also failed.
6. Tried the other New file options and these all work.
7. Uninstalled LO 4.2.2 and then installed 4.1.5 to see if this would work or
have the same problem, and it has the same problem.
8. Uninstalled 4.1.5 and reinstalled 3.6.5, and now the New files options works
again, as before, for creating new OD files.
Current behavior:
LO 3.6.5 is working correctly for my needs.
Expected behavior:
For the Explorer context menu New option to work with LO 4.1.5 and 4.2.2. I
regularly create new document files in different directories/folders based on
topics, so the New option is definitely helpful.
Operating System: Windows XP
Version: 4.1.5.3 release
