I am using LibreOffice 4.1.3.2, installed from the repos, on Xubuntu 13.10, but on my old computer it was whatever was in the repos for Xubuntu 12.04, and the problem was the same. I just decided that it was time to fix it.
The problem is that some keyboard shortcuts are not working, specifically Ctrl-F12 (opens insert table dialog box) and Ctrl-Shift-End / Ctrl-Shift-Home (selects to end / beginning of document). However, Ctrl-Shift-Right / Left Arrow select to the end / beginning of the current word, as they are supposed to, as does Ctrl-a (select all). I have checked in the settings editor for Xubuntu and Ctrl-F12 is set to "Workspace 12", although I have only two workspaces enabled, and I can't tell if "Workspace 12" is just part of a preconfigured list where it is not actually enabled, or whether anything in the list is automatically enabled. I also can't figure out what the keyboard shortcut list in the settings editor actually does - e.g., if a document window is open do the settings editor preferences override the application keyboard shortcuts, or the other way around? As for Ctrl-Shift-End and Ctrl-Shift-Home, neither is listed in the Xubuntu settings editor, so they should be completely free for applications. More importantly, these two shortcuts do not work in Gedit or my mail client's compose window either, although I can't check the Ctrl-F12 in them because these applications have no table function. And all of these shortcuts are enabled in the LO customization dialog box. I'm tired of having to use the mouse/menus to select to the beginning / end of a document or open the insert table dialog window. Does anyone have any suggestions for places to poke around in? Can anyone with LO on a 'buntu duplicate the problem? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
