--- Comment #17 from Charles <tansta...@libertytrek.org> --- Arrogant was a poor choice of words, but the fact is, responses like 'why don't you just pay someone to fix it' for fundamental flaws in software that is advertised on the main Libreoffice Home Page as: "LibreOffice 4.3: today, you can’t own a better office suite" is just ridiculous. Maybe there should be disclaimers on the web page like: "Oh... wait... you mean you want to actually be able to print to standard size paper sizes like Tabloid (11x17)? Oh... wait... you mean you want to actually be able to use the newer versions *and* be able to paste into your Input fields, like you were able to do since Openoffice 1.0, but that was broken in the 4.2 series? Well, then, you need to stop whining and pony up..." Sorry - it is much easier to just stop fighting and let the boss buy Microsoft Office licenses... which he has already apparently decided to do, so this is really a moot point I guess. Sad, really... It's been a long road since we started using Openoffice (1.0), with ups and downs, but just too many downs in the last few years. The major problems started with poor compatibility with the new OOXML file formats - NOT the Libreoffice developers fault, and I totally understand this, but it didn't change the fact that we started getting more and more documents over time that would actually crash Libreoffice consistently. The crashes eventually stopped, and the compatibility got better, but combined with these showstopper (for us) bugs - one having been present for YEARS (this bug) and the other a major regression that has existed during the entire lifecycle of one major release (4.2) and still exists in the first release of 4.3 (the inability to paste into Input fields in 4.2+ versions) - well, it is just a last straw kind of thing... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
