Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Problems with Merge in Draw

I did use the context menu. I did use primitive shapes with regular fillings. Here is the file to the problem: roads.odp http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n4030970/roads.odp That's good. I use LO4.0 and there is no problem with merging. You are not using primitive shapes, but custom shapes. If you use a custom shape you see the text shape in the status bar and the icon toggle 3D is enabled. Primitive shapes are for example rectangle, circle, parallelogram. You see the kind of shape in the status bar and the icon toggle 3D is disabled. It is very likely, that you do not mark both of the shapes you want to merge. Have a look into the status bar. If you see shape selected it is only 1 shape, you should see 2 shapes selected and later on 2 draw object selected when you have marked different kind of shapes. Why do you work in Impress? For such drawings Draw is the better module. In Draw you can use layers. You can have a layer for the hexagons, one for the green park and another one for the streets. If you lock the other layers, you can select the street-parts easily by dragging a selection rectangle. Merging is only possible with Bézier-curves, so do not wonder, when your shapes are converted automatically. Kind regards Regina I've been able to reproduce the issue: Create a circle with a diameter of X (let's say 1cm). Create a rectangle with a width of 1cm and any height. Align the bottom centre of the rectangle to the centre of the circle. Now rotate the rectangle by 60 degrees (120 or 240 work as well) with the rotation axis being the centre of the circle. Contextmenu - shape - merge; The result is anything but a proper merge. Any creative ideas?

Re: [libreoffice-users] is MSFT running scared ...
That unplugging does not work when you deal with a laptop though. The sudo command only works with a Linux install, or live media. That is why I liked the rescue disk. You did not need to deal with commands. All you had to do was boot it up and press a button or three. The rest was automatic. as for the thread title. . . . MS was really expecting big income from their Win8 OS and their Win8 tablet. There seems not to be much less upgrade sales that they predicted. There tablet failed to catch any real market share. MSO-2013 is coming out soon, but the info I have read stated that it was optimized to work with Win8 and its touch abilities. How it will work with XP, Vista, Win7, or even Win8 with non-touch displays will be the key. Also their XML .docx file format [and the others] is not compatible to the 2007 or 2010 XML abilities so a .docx file created with 2013 has a very good chance not to be readable within 2007 or 2010. They do this deliberately to force users to upgrade to their new office product[s]. This was never a good idea in a good economy, but even worse in todays economic conditions where businesses cannot afford the new pricing scheme that MSO uses now. I have read reports showing that MS profits are less and less each quarter [on average]. I have not read how much their failed tablet has cost them though. Still, their profits are greater than most business out there. The desktop/laptop market is slowing as the tablet market is taking more of its market share, but the tablet sales are slowing as well. It is the economic conditions, and users for personal and business systems do not have the capital to buy as much tech as they once did. As long as there is a product like LibreOffice that is developing better and better filters to read/write MSO formats, I will not be buying any MSO products for the foreseeable future. If MS creates a more sensible Windows 9 OS, I may think about upgrading my Win7 laptop to it one day, but not Win8. As long as I can use Ubuntu, or other Linux OS, for my needs, I will prefer to use it. I will have one Windows OS to deal with the required Windows hardware and software - like defragging external drives. My TV and blu-ray devices do not support non-Windows disk formats so I will still need those large externals to be NTFS and defragged by Windows from time to time. Then there are the Windows-only software packages/utilities that deal with special features of my multi-function printers, like their printing of a printable CD/DVD media's label; or a Windows-only USB video capture device.

Re: [libreoffice-users] is MSFT running scared ...
The problem most people I know has with ME was drivers. The big 2 reasons why I went from Vistas to Win7 were: 1) external drive issues, 2) support for newer hardware [driver] and software. It also helped going from 32-bit Vista to 64-bit Win7. I still have an XP laptop, but there are more and more hardware and software that wants at least Vista to run, or does not run well on XP. The only reason to upgrade to Win8, to me, is the advanced touch options, as long as you have a touch display though. My only touch display is on my Android tablet and that will be the case for the foreseeable future.

[libreoffice-users] Forms navigation through Tab issues
Hi there, I'm dealing with internet data collection for statistical issues. We're generating OpenDocument Questionnaires via XSL Transformation (generating the content.xml file and packaging the whole). The odf seems to be correct and is validating ODF Schema. However, even if we had correctly put the form:tab-index in forms when wanted, the navigation using tab between forms doesn't seem to work well. If you just open the file, focus on one of the forms on the first page and use tab, it won't go further than pages you've already scrolled on screen. I'm using LibreOffice 3.5.4, but bug was replayed on 3.6.3.2 version. You'll find attached (if my attachment went through the mailing-list) one example questionnaire. It looks like a bug (some memory stuff as if it needs to see the forms before being able to navigate to them), but I may miss something in the odf content...

If the world were perfect, Windows 98 would have worked without BSOD all the time, and it would have been the best. (Of course it was only 16-bit.) But Win 98 still allowed the user some control over where things were stored and in what user-named directories, and you could use the 3rd party program whereis to find them, *but _not_ open them* so you could do something with the file itself--copy it, move it, email it which you can't do in the later Windowses.

Re: [libreoffice-users] is MSFT running scared ...
The trick is to find the old style PATA laptop drives, or at least one that is larger than what is currently in my system. As for doing swapping of parts, my oldest laptop I currently have requires you to remove the keyboard to access things like the memory module. I bought two 1GB mods. and I had to give up replacing one since it was under the keyboard and the instructions given my the manual to access parts below the keyboard was totally wrong and does not work at all. So I must keep the 256MB in that one and forget about getting two mods. installed. The drive was in too tight to remove safely. At least the Optical drive was only two screws, since I have had to replace it twice during the warranty time. I know one Win7 laptop my friend has that used two drives to give him more space than other systems have. I would love to replace my oldest laptop's drive larger than the current 80GB and my dual booting one needs a larger one than the 160GB drive. Having Win7 and Ubuntu 12.10.MATE on one small drive, does not leave much room for larger data files. I rather not buy an external mobile drive that was made to be used with laptops. I rather not have to make sure that an external one is hauled around in a bag with the laptop, packing and unpacking, etc.. It would be much safer to have the data internally to the system.

Re: [libreoffice-users] is MSFT running scared ...
Hi :) The trick is finding the easiest fastest answer for whatever hardware, resources and experience you have at the time. The best answer for a normal desktop is not likely to be best for a netbook and the best answer for a netbook is likely to be over-complicated compared to other answers available for a normal desktop. For a normal desktop it's just; 1. about 2 screws and 1 unplug to avoid needing to fix anything 2. If you still have a distro's Cd/Dvd or Usb then you can fix it from there.

The trick is to find the old style PATA laptop drives, or at least one that is larger than what is currently in my system. As for doing swapping of parts, my oldest laptop I currently have requires you to remove the keyboard to access things like the memory module. I bought two 1GB mods. and I had to give up replacing one since it was under the keyboard and the instructions given my the manual to access parts below the keyboard was totally wrong and does not work at all. So I must keep the 256MB in that one and forget about getting two mods. installed. The drive was in too tight to remove safely. At least the Optical drive was only two screws, since I have had to replace it twice during the warranty time. I know one Win7 laptop my friend has that used two drives to give him more space than other systems have. I would love to replace my oldest laptop's drive larger than the current 80GB and my dual booting one needs a larger one than the 160GB drive. Having Win7 and Ubuntu 12.10.MATE on one small drive, does not leave much room for larger data files. I rather not buy an external mobile drive that was made to be used with laptops. I rather not have to make sure that an external one is hauled around in a bag with the laptop, packing and unpacking, etc.. It would be much safer to have the data internally to the system.

Re: [libreoffice-users] First occurrence of a negative number in a column

Example: A1:A31 contains a list of temperatures a given month. I would like to find the first day the temperature is below 0 degrees (metric). What happens if there is no day in the month when the temperature was negative? Let's say you want the value zero for the resulting day number in this case. This is a little messy, but it works: o In B1, enter =A10 and fill it down the column to B31. This generates TRUE for your negative values and FALSE otherwise. o In your result cell, enter =N(MATCH(TRUE;B1:B31;0)) . The MATCH() function searches for the first TRUE value in the column B values and returns the relative position in the array of the first match. (Note that this is not necessarily the row number, though will be in your example.) This would return the #N/A error if there is no negative temperature; the N() function makes no change to real dates but converts this error to zero. You may choose to hide column B, of course - or you could put its values away somewhere else on the sheet or even on a different sheet. Incidentally, you are unlikely to get temperatures below 0 degrees (metric), as the SI temperature scale is kelvin, and its zero is the absolute zero of temperature! But yes: I appreciate that you mean the celsius scale. ;^) I trust this helps.

Re: [libreoffice-users] java error
This is a dump file, made when the JVM crash. If you have regular crash, it can be helpful to find the cause. If you found only one, it mean only one crash, so it's probably not a big problem. To answer your question, it's complicated to tell who is at fault for this one: it seem that a call to getenv() caused a segfault, which seems odd. Only cause I can see for this is calling getenv() with a NULL value, which would be quite hard from a Java program since the call should be wrapped by the JVM, but it's not impossible either. -- Cley Faye http://cleyfaye.net 2013/1/23 Paolo Debortoli paolo_debort...@yahoo.com hi. i have found (ubuntu with libreoffice 4.0) a file named 'hs_err_pid11845.log' saying: A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x7f5a779caf5c, pid=11845, tid=140025396197120 # # JRE version: 7.0_09-b30 # Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (23.2-b09 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops) # Problematic frame: # C [libc.so.6+0x3af5c] getenv+0x9c # # Failed to write core dump.
