I'm now convinced that Sun should send their programmers off for a week to work with users so that they can see for themselves how spreadsheets are used. Hopefully, this will motivate them to work on things that are fundamentally missing. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=20819 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jul 3 14:54:22 + 2008 --- iha, I'm sorry - that _really_ wasn't meant as bashing at all. I just fundamentally believe that many _core_ features that users need are missing and I have to ask myself why that might be. I'm aware that SUN has _many_ developers working on OO but yet the core features are missing. This can only mean they are working on things that the users don't value as much. In product development, it is imperative that the design team do market studies and test group studies to find out what is important to the customers. I'm just suggesting that this might be missing - it was _not_ intended as a bash but more of a recommendation that SUN do some serious shadowing of their users to see how they use a spreadsheet. 1) Speed is still an issues 2) Humans can interpret information through graphics quickly. This is the reason Calc _needs_ a good graphics package. 3) Data is just data. Scientists, engineers, managers, and most others want to learn from that data which means applying statistics and trendlines to that data. This is a core feature, no exceptions. I hope to graduate in about 6-8 weeks. Let me know if you are serious about your willingness to work with me on this. I can help with the curve fitting theories but probably not the actual implementation of the code. I've offered my help before on trendlines and it wasn't taken. I'm more of a engineer/mathematician than a programmer although I do quite a bit of programming for my research - I don't know how the OO is put together. If the theory is missing or unknown, then that is where I can help. Again, I'm tied up for about 6-8 weeks but can point a programmer in the right direction for learning about curve fitting to minimize error... - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[graphics-issues] [Issue 91187] Power Regression isn't use ful in current form

In its current form, plotting a trendline using the power option (versus logarithm, linear, etc) isn't terribly useful. In general the user should be able to decide the order of the polynomial being used (e.g. 2nd order, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc). Having Calc/Chart _only_ using a 2nd order polynomial is pretty useless. Generally speaking, a best-fit analysis is performed on the order of polynomial chosen to be used and then the curve is plotted and the equation revealed. In MANY cases that I've encountered, a higher order polynomial is required. The logic for determining the 2nd order polynomial equation that best fits should be able to be ported to an nth-order polynomial so the work shouldn't be too difficult. I'd recommend a greyed-out user input field on the GUI used when determining the type of curve fit - if polynomial is chosen, then the greyed-out box becomes active and the user can input the order of polynomial chosen and then OO goes off and does its thing. This is similar to how Excel works and, in general, other curve-fitting packages. I wouldn't call this an enhancement as the current form isn't really useful until it can do higher order polynomials.

I prefer to keep my system light as a system administrator that makes images of the HD for use later, I'd prefer not to waste bandwidth on information that is no longer in use. How about an option such as a check box that allows the user to choose remove the old files? You know, a warning such as if you check this box you will not be able to revert to the previous pre-patched version without reinstalling the entire application and let the user decide. I realize HD space may not be an issue for some but it is for me and I'd imagine others so why not a simple option to allow us to remove the old stuff.

I'm using 2.3 and went into some malformed contents.xml documents and stripped out the _5f entries and then updated the document in 2.3 and saved it. Upon inspection of the newly updated contents.xml file, the _5f entries were again there. this bug has been reported in issues 63269 and 46683 as fixed but apparently it isn't UNLESS, for some reason, it requires a clean slate creation of a document. Unfortunately, IMHO, it isn't fixed as there are going to be countless documents out there with the _5f garbage in them. A true 'fix' would repair the offending lines of code and then repair the offending 'contents.xml' files. Anyhow, this is still ongoing with my documents. This is a research document that I can't share but this has been reported for YEARS now so it shouldn't be that hard to find a document where this is an issue.

I tried finding a forum at Sun for SO but I couldn't find one. In short, SO installs patches like a pig that craves magnetic bits. I've installed every patch since 8 came out and the last was patch 8. I decided to check the HD after it was done and it was consuming 1GB of HD space. This was ridiculous so I decided to poke my nose around to see what was going on and I found the following, 1) SO keeps old versions of files around. Why, oh why, this is just as bad as MS keeping patches around. 2) Even though the initial install specified that I wanted the EN-US language installed, every patch installed after the initial install continues to install every single language. Why, oh why? Cleaning results... Before - 1GB After - 330MB I recommend the following, 1) have the install script remove files that have been renamed - no point in keeping them around. 2) have the install script figure out which language is installed and ONLY install the language that the user has installed. Looking forward to 2.4...actually, 3.0 but we'll have to wait.

[sw-issues] [Issue 62675] Numbered chapter styles be have erratically; hard numbers should turn to outlines when assigning heading style
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=62675 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jul 16 14:09:16 + 2007 --- Could you add 79486 to this one also as I think they are related? There is an example document in that issue also that has temperamental behavior - this results in loss productivity of the user and great frustrations. OD, I'm not sure I follow. If I create a new document with a clean slate then are you saying there is hard numbering assigned to the Heading styles? If so, then that isn't right. The hard numbering should only be applied if the user goes to tools-outline numbering and _then_ decides to have hard numbering applied to those styles. I've created documents with only 2 types of styles - heading and default - and OO still seems to screw up the numbering sequence. I use the Heading styles as described in the OO help for creating paragraph sequences and it still gets confused. I realize that sometimes that this is a user problem but I have to tell you that I'm very methodical and thorough when trying to demonstrate a problem/bug and this behavior is extremely odd/counterintuitive/disruptive. I also don't follow your explanation of the discussion as to what is occurring. It's not so much the terminology but there are details that you know that are not included in the discussion such as, -what is hard numbering? -what is soft numbering? -how are styles automatically linked to outline styles? -which styles have numbering rule sets automatically applied? -which styles have outline styles automatically applied? These details are what create confusion and it would be good to define any terms used before discussing them. Your effort is to be applauded - thank you. The end result is that there is an inconsistent behavior that I can attribute to OO solely. I've spent hours/days (and several paper revisions) trying to figure out how OO functions and each time changing my thought process only to realize that OO is inconsistent and that no matter what I do, I can't get the behavior that is expected or desired. The problem may just lie in the fact that we're creating documents with pages upon pages and several layers of numbering and maybe these haven't been tested well enough - it's possible. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I don't _want_ to shut off the numbering. OO is losing the proper numbering sequence. Please reopen that paper and note that the numbering sequence is Chapt 1 (Heading 1) 1.1 (Heading 2) 1.2 (Heading 2) 1.3 (Heading 2) 1.4 (Heading 2) 1.5 (Heading 2) 1.1 (Heading 2) - this is where it starts acting weird - If it's a heading 2 then it should be 1.6 NOT 1.1. Shutting off the restart numbering doesn't fix the problem either. 1.2 (Heading 2) - this should also now be 1.7 if everything is working correctly 1.6 (Heading 2) somehow refers to the 1.5 entry and doesn't add to the 1.2 previous entry. 1.3 (Heading 2) which is after 1.6 should at least be 1.7 but it isn't. Ideally, it would have been 1.9. changing these things to Heading 3 just highlights the problems also. It is _not_ fixed as far as I'm concerned. There must be a communication problem or you aren't using it the way that I am. I am _not_ using it incorrectly, according to the documentation.

All that I ever did was using Heading1 or Heading 2 so why is OO getting confused with a list and a heading? In other words, I am forced to set them all to default and then all to heading but they were created in the reverse order (i.e. default, then heading) but now there is a list which I never created. Anyhow, you figured out how I can salvage my papers easily enough but I'm sure that there is a bug in OO somewhere due to this having to be an issue in the first place.

Two things have happened... For some reason the page numbering got screwy even within the same style sheet. It went, 1, 2 (page break w/same style sheet) 1, 2, 3 Even more odd was the fact that deleting and recreating the table of contents reset the file name to something more manageable than 5f_5f_5f_ .. which grew exponentially BUT after a period of saving the dreaded 5f_5f_5f_ .. returned. It looks like it can't be avoided. Good luck. I can't tell if my effort is wasted or not seeing as I haven't heard anything back - sorry to say that I won't be donating to OO anymore. It is, by far, the only FOSS project where I've put so much effort into only to be seemingly ignored. I'll keep posting bugs but the lack of feedback will make me donate my cash to projects where progress is made in areas where the consumer cares (i.e. speed, stability, footprint size, fundamental things work w/o question, etc). I'm always shocked that the integrated 5.2 environment is _so_ much faster than what we have now - after 7-8 yrs and being told that the reason of tearing it apart was to make it faster and more lightweight. I don't know if it the coding or the language choice but things are considerably slower. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Why not just reference the default file within styles.xml and only add bold at the text position required which could override all of the default settings except bold. Currently there is a new style created. I understand how following the older HTML way might actually enlarge the file size NOT creating a new style every time and adding boldunderlineitalic at every instance. It just seems that there are font styles created that aren't used. Is there a mechanism within OO that regularly goes through contents.xml and cleans it up for orphaned settings? I'm sure the OO team has their reasons for doing it the way they do. I'd just like to be privy to those reasons - shine some light on me, would you? Surely there was a study which showed the merits of doing it either way which was the reason behind the change. 2. I don't know _what_ is creating the problem but there is something that is _clearly_ causing this problem within OO and even does so for small files that are newly created. It might not be automatic style creations but it might be also. I won't know until I dig more and I won't have time to do as such for a while because of my research. 3. Unfortunately, I can't share the extent of the document with you guys as it _is_ sensitive in nature being research material with funding and NDA issues. When I get a minute this week I'll do what I can to minimize the sensitivity of the document without removing the offending XML issues in hopes that we can catch whatever is causing this problem. 4. I don't know what created the super-long 5f style name but I can assure you that it wasn't by editing the XML file. I assure you that I wouldn't choose to create an OO document by editing the XML files, as to me, that's a painfully long way to do so. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Please look in section 3 by 3.4 and 3.5. You'll see the counting starts at 1 again. I've also edited the contents.xml file to reduce the string length to a single 5f of the offending table style; upon saving the document I encountered 2 more for a total of 3 5fs so something is broken here. I've found a temporary work-around that works. Typical usage until yesterday... I would type some text, highlight it, and call use the pulldown style to call it Heading 2 which would cause the text to change to a Heading_2 style with the proper numbering. Unknown to me, it was creating a P12 style and using that style (I'm guessing). Current Usage When I repeat the same as above it will now use the style Heading_20_2 (probably the default style). I don't know why the behavior has changed from selecting a P12 style to the default Heading_20_2 style but this explains why the numbering gets reset. If you highlight the 3.4 you'll see the style come up as Heading 2 and if you highlight the 1.1 you'll see the style come up as Heading 2. Work-around Select the text used for 3.4 (Revisiting the Original ECVT Concept) and paste it down below and the proper numbering sequence will continue. Now just change the text. I think I've done all that I can to isolate the problem. I just don't know why it worked for about 6 days as described above and now will no longer continue the numbering when selecting Heading_2 from the pull-down list. The user doesn't get the option to select the P12 version of the style (what Word does - and annoys the $#%^ out of me). for background info, I originally went into Tools- outline numbering and changed the formatting to reflect what the university wanted. Everything worked great for a week. I'm going to see what happens if I remove the Heading_20_2 reference from the head of the contents.xml file with the hopes that the next time I create a Heading_2 entry it will select P12. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It would be nice to know, a) why this started to begin with. b) why the name continually grows. Who knows? I've found a way around it for now. Not perfect but there are ways to fix what is broken and it wouldn't be possible without the open standard. Ok, left to figure out is why the heading numberings do what they're doing. On another note, any grumblings around the OO community of developers about rewriting portions of OO to improve speed and responsiveness? That would be great not to mention that SUN should be interested in doing so since more and more apps are going to hand-held devices indicating a smaller footprint requirement.

Go to the page with the Chapter 1 - Introduction. From the bottom, going up do the following 1) Delete the 1.4 entry and note any changes on the next page (i.e. Beginning of chapter 2) 2) Delete the 1.3 entry and note any changes on the next page (i.e. Beginning of chapter 2) 3) Delete the 1.2 entry and note any changes on the next page (i.e. Beginning of chapter 2) 4) Delete the 1.1 entry and note any changes on the next page (i.e. Beginning of chapter 2) Not until the last deletion does chapter 2 revert to chapter 1 leaving _two_ chapter 1s. They were all created together using the same technique but OO gets screwy when the user decides to go back and change/modify the entries. It is still possible to work around this by copying and pasting the Chapter 2 formatting to chapter 1 but they should have been the same to begin with and were created together so the P12 style for Introduction and the P15 style for Background and Literature Review should not have occurred which means something is going wrong with the Automatic Style Creation. then there is another style created for Chapter 3 which is P16. Somehow 3 different styles were created for the same heading type. I'm sure this also occurred with the sub-heading types which means there are entirely too many styles and no wonder why it can't keep track of which style to use or how to keep the numbering straight. Let me know what you guys find out as soon as possible as this is quickly turning into a nightmare for me. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I found that the P's were the automatically created styles for when I underlined or made bold the existing default style. Somehow, OO has decided to rename almost all of my headings into a automatically-created style - NOTE: I did NOT do this. Anyhow, onto my rant... All of a sudden, it screwed up the order of my sections subsections - it just decided to start at 1.1 in between 3.4 and 3.5 - ugghhh. It all has to do with the automatically creating styles that MS does and it sucks. If I am using the default style and want to make it bold instead of regular it goes and creates a whole new style called something like P_X which is the same thing that word does. If you then decide to bold and underline another style is created. If you decide to just underline, another new style. Change the font size, another style for each separate font size and God-forbid you decide to bolt,underline, or italicize any of them - you can see how this creates a mess. In this day and age, with computer programs doing so much, you'd think it would be easy to create a program that just says hey, I'm a bold version of the default and only carry the bold style in combination with a pointer to the default style to reduce all of the extra space required by keeping multiple copies for every little change. I thought the whole point of CSS and XML was the ability to cross-reference styles. It makes no sense (and admittedly, there might be a very good reason for doing it this way) but WHY WHY WHY create an automatically created style for every little change. If the only difference to a default style is a bold, underline, italicize, or font size - does a whole new style really need to be created? Why not just carry along the changes Honestly, this is one reason that I STOPPED using MS WORD 2003, it got to be _ridiculous_ with the number of styles that one had to keep track of. The only difference, as I see it with OO, is that OO hides it in the content.xml file so the user can't see it. Ok, problem identified. Solution still a mystery. Who do we talk to about fixing the problem as it stands and who do we talk to about making a more permanent change (if it is desired) so that new styles aren't created unless a significant change is made. Surely, this is a waste of space and also problematic - as I've proven ;-) In other words, I know from CSS that I can create a style sheet and leave everything alone using the default settings but if I want to make a change for a particular new paragraph then I just _reference_ the default style and make whatever minor change at that paragraph and then end the change afterwards so that the next paragraph goes back to the original style. anyhow, I'm exhausted and not looking forward to the hours it will take to fix things. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I'm trying to write my dissertation using this OO and I'm finding that even using the Tools-Outline Numbering method isn't foolproof. Sometimes it just forgets how to properly format Level 2. I end up having to go through hoops to make it remember. If it is a level 2 then the numbering sequence should be consecutive when under the same Level 1 and if the level 1 changes then the level 2 should reflect those changes. For example, Chapter 1 - Level 1 (entry #1) 1.1 - level 2 (entry #1) 1.2 - level 2 (entry #2) Chapter 2 - Level 1 (entry #2) 2.1 - Level 2 (entry #3 or entry 2-1, however OO sees it) 2.2 - Level 2 (entry #4 or entry 2-2, however OO sees it) But I just recently ran into a problem where OO did the following Chapter 1 1.1 1.1 Chapter 2 1.1 1.1 I've bumped this up in priority as both ways of doing this can easily reveal the flaws and this is a critical component to any word processor. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I can't see why the current implementation would be used considering how most of us writing think of margins and headers/footers. They are to be contained _within_ the margin. The current implementation doesn't work that way at all and is confusing. I'm also reluctant to post this as a documentation issue as I'm not sure that this is a documentation issue as opposed to an implementation issue. Sun needs to decide which is the preferred way to do things first - I'm optimistic that they'll agree with the way that most other word processors do things - and _then_ decide whether or not to call this a bug or enhancement and _then_ decide how to re/write the documentation. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sw-issues] [Issue 77372] Odd behavior with Chapter and Outlines

If the user begins a new document and then opens the styles and formatting window where they then click on the list styles icon and then modify the List 1 entry. Modifying List 1 entry, 1) click on the outline tab 2) click 2nd row, third column 3) click options tab 4) click on 1 under level - and add chapter in the before box and a . in the after box 5) click on 2 under level - add a . in the after box 6) click on 3 under level - add a . in the after box - at this point, the preview looks just the way that I want it... 7) click ok and exit Now modify the paragraph styles so that they refer to the proper outline style 1) Click on the paragraph styles icon in the styles and formatting window 2) Modify the Heading 1 entry by clicking on the numbering tab and choosing the just-modified List 1 3) Repeat the previous step for Heading 2 and Heading 3. Now, everything works as it should as the paragraph styles are referencing the proper List 1 style and using those settings as it's number style. Add several different lines of text with carriage returns and change the paragraph style to Heading 1, then Heading 2, then Heading 3 and you'll see that everything works as it is supposed to. It should look like, Chapter 1. 1. 1. asdfasfasdfasdfa 1. 1. 1 adasfasdfasfasfd Chapter 2. 2. 1. asdaasdasdfasfas 2. 1. 2 asdfasdfasfasfsdaf _this_ is where the fun begins... Go back to the styles and formatting menu and edit the Heading 2 paragraph style and click on the numbering tab again. Change the style to any other style and click ok. Now go back and change it to List 1 again. add a line of text and change it to a Heading 2 paragraph style, then hit return for the next line of text... You should find the following... Chapter 1 Chapter 2 adsasdfasfas 2. 1. 1 asdasdfasfdas Yes, I realize that Tools-Outline Numbering is a better tool for accomplishing this but this is a nasty inconsistency that should be squashed. So long as things are entered in the exact order that I outlined previously then things work fine but if any changes to the order are made or the configuration then things get messy quickly. Changing a style midstream screws up the formatting. Once it's screwed up in the document, it is a mess and the user needs to start fresh. This is a mess, IMHO. On a related note and maybe better suited for another bug report is that changes to Tools- Outline Numbering then cancels any user-configured changes. If I make changes to List 1 and then use Outline Numbering then decide that I want to use List 1 again, all of my settings are gone. There is some serious work that needs to go on in this area as it is very flaky and I'm pretty tired of tripping across bugs that are so easily discovered. Let's hope that the world doesn't adopt OO (as the press is claiming) because it isn't ready, IMHO, and doing so would be a net negative for FOSS. In short, including a numbering style doesn't work reliably and a slight breeze knocks it over. Any changes to the document, formatting, or the styles causes it to get confused. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sw-issues] [Issue 77320] header or footer NOT in ma rgins
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=77320 Issue #|77320 Summary|header or footer NOT in margins Component|Word processor Version|OOo 2.2 Platform|All URL| OS/Version|All Status|UNCONFIRMED Status whiteboard| Keywords| Resolution| Issue type|DEFECT Priority|P3 Subcomponent|code Assigned to|mru Reported by|enmane --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun May 13 23:40:15 + 2007 --- The header or footer is _not_ in the margins as is discussed in the OO help. I believe that this used to work properly a while back but I'll have to fire up 5.2 to verify. Anyhow, the help is incorrect and I'd prefer to have it rectified as opposed to changing the help information. It's preferable to be able to install the header or footer _within_ the margins as opposed to have a footer and then have to calculate what the required margin needs to be to work with other pages that don't have a header or footer. This is how MS Word works and IMHO is the way that it should function. Imagine a document that wants 1 top margins for all pages so that the text begins at 1 and then the author wants to put a header on some of the pages. This requires the author to create separate page styles for pages that have or don't have the headers. - if there is a header then the margin would be about 0.6 and then the header would take up the remaining 0.4 requiring the author to figure this stuff out. The text would then follow the header. If the author wants the header higher up on the page then the margin needs to be less and the space taken up by the header needs to increase - this requires too much time to fuss around with details. - if there is no header then the margins are set to 1 and the text follows. Preferably, the implementation would be as follows, 1)the author chooses the margin 2)the author chooses a (-)dimension to move the header _within_ the margin or an offset from the page edge. I've spent about 2 hrs researching this problem and it isn't in the various documentation manuals, the forums, the help (which is incorrect), and it isn't even in the differences between MSO and OO information. I'm a little shocked that this package has been out for so long and this hasn't been more thoroughly documented. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I bring in a photo and then use circles and text to highlight the object but when I move things around they don't move together so I have to go to Draw to make it work properly. Surely, I can't be the only one that would want to group these objects together without having to use Draw. Can't we put a switching feature in Picture properties window under the Type tab? I'm leaving this as a Writer problem because I believe that Writer should be a program that one can use to accomplish what they need to without having to open another package like Draw. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Most people want to click on the object and not use the tab key to scroll through 20 objects (most of my plots have at LEAST 5 lines on them with 5 regression curves) just to get to the one that they want. how about using a key combination with the mouse like a ctrl-left-click to go through the z-axis to get to the items you want or right-clicking to go through z-axis items. The tab method is sorely lacking. Just because there is a solution doesn't mean it is a good one or one that will even be used.

Sure, I can tab through and get the line highlighted but then right-clicking and trying to get the object properties pulls up the regression line formatting issues. In other words, the interface/interaction is NOT consistent. If there is no regression line then right-clicking on the highlighted data line pulls up the data object properties. If there is a regression line then right-clicking on the highlighted data line pulls up the regression object properties which forces the user to highlight the data line using the tab key and then going up to the menu bars to be able to change the data object properties. In short, there are 2 ways to alter data object properties - going to the menu bar or right-clicking (if no regression line) but when a regression line is present then the user can ONLY go to the menu bar to change the underlying data object properties and they MUST use the tab key to get there. Honestly, this SUCKS as a user interface and if this is going to be left as-is then don't shoot the messenger when people complain about inconsistent user interfaces. I've presented the information - do with it what you will but changing it to anything other than an Open-Defect is shorting the users. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

That post was about regression analysis and curve fitting and not error bars. The fact that they were lumped together implies that they are the same thing when they are, in fact, not. Please see that post again and re-read it as I DID offer to help. I am not a great coder although I have coded in C, C++, Fortran, Pascal, and Basic but it has been a while. I do know regression analysis and statistics. You let me know what it is that you guys are lacking and if I can contribute then I will. I agree 100% with Daniel - I've STOPPED promoting this package because it really doesn't compare w/MS Office at all. Sure it has a few features that are really great and even better than MS Office but as a whole, it is still a decade behind. Now that 2007 is coming out, it'll fall even further behind. I still believe that the original implementation was vastly superior - 1 desktop that handles everything - and Sun made a mistake in wasting all those resources in splitting up the packages and beautification when it could have gone to added real features that were lacking. This clearly shows why Sun, as a company, hasn't done well in decades. Having 2 people working on this is ridiculous. to clarify your post on So may be I am allowed to rant, too. Why do you guys think when you get a software for FREE and do NOTHING for it apart from ranting, that we should listen to you. We will implement this feature, when we finished chart2 and have the time for it. Period. -- Well, I know that I feel that my time is very valuable and I want to promote OO but when I waste considerable time on features that don't exist then it costs me money, if time=money. The money that is spent isn't only the money that is laid down for a package. I feel lied to when the promotions come out talking about how great OO is and I waste my time to download it and promote it only to find out little significant (to me) progress has been made. The fact remains that people value their time and wasting it upsets me. My reputation is on the line when I promote this package only to find out that there are still missing features. I want to help and promote it but I won't do that anymore because of the history of development and lack of features. So YEAH, I feel justified in bitching about it because OO has cost me considerable time, resources, and has affected my reputation with regards to this package. Not all things are measured in greenbacks that have been pulled from one's wallet and one could argue that the really important things aren't measured with greenbacks at all. BM, your efforts and the other person are greatly appreciated. My issue isn't with you but the fact that Sun isn't allocating their resources effectively on the issues that are critical. Sun should take this example into consideration, Buy MS OFfice for $100 (very easy to find price)- all features included and provided Person pays nothing for OO - cost $0 but spends at least 5 hours over the course of 4 yrs finding ways to do things such as, * creating good looking templates that already exist in MSO * doing proper plotting * productivity losses due to speed differences * exporting filtering issues * getting multimedia to play correctly in OOImpress (windows AND linux) * figuring out how to get things done in OO vs MSO At a cost of $20/hr (cheap, if you ask me) then the person would be better off with MSO because they would have saved time and NOT been frustrated. Now, consider that a 5 hr loss over 4 yrs is very conservative, I know that I've wasted that in a few months on OOImpress. Consider that $20/hr is pretty cheap her in the US and you'll see that OO has a very tough battle ahead of it. If there is any wonder why people aren't using it, just point the Sun executives to this example. I would be better off using MSOffice both for reasons of frustration and lost time/money. Based on this example, the only ones that would use OO are those that just cannot afford to lay out MSO or those that want to promote it at the expense of wasting their time (for whatever reason such as dislike of MSO and wanting to see a true competitor); well, I know I fall into the latter camp along with many of the posters here and we are walking away one after another because eventually we realize that the shine on OO has lost its luster. So unless Sun makes some changes real quickly then the ones that are using it but can afford it are going to walk away if they haven't already. It just isn't worth our time. Heck, I know that I'd even offer $$ if the package was anywhere near MSO but it isn't and I'm not about to give money to a

Period. -- Well, I know that I feel that my time is very valuable and I want to promote OO but when I waste considerable time on features that don't exist then it costs me money, if time=money. The money that is spent isn't only the money that is laid down for a package. I feel lied to when the promotions come out talking about how great OO is and I waste my time to download it and promote it only to find out little significant (to me) progress has been made. The fact remains that people value their time and wasting it upsets me. My reputation is on the line when I promote this package only to find out that there are still missing features. I want to help and promote it but I won't do that anymore because of the history of development and lack of features. So YEAH, I feel justified in bitching about it because OO has cost me considerable time, resources, and has affected my reputation with regards to this package. Not all things are measured in greenbacks that have been pulled from one's wallet and one could argue that the really important things aren't measured with greenbacks at all. BM, your efforts and the other person are greatly appreciated. My issue isn't with you but the fact that Sun isn't allocating their resources effectively on the issues that are critical. Sun should take this example into consideration, Buy MS OFfice for $100 (very easy to find price)- all features included and provided Person pays nothing for OO - cost $0 but spends at least 5 hours over the course of 4 yrs finding ways to do things such as, * creating good looking templates that already exist in MSO * doing proper plotting * productivity losses due to speed differences * exporting filtering issues * getting multimedia to play correctly in OOImpress (windows AND linux) * figuring out how to get things done in OO vs MSO At a cost of $20/hr (cheap, if you ask me) then the person would be better off with MSO because they would have saved time and NOT been frustrated. Now, consider that a 5 hr loss over 4 yrs is very conservative, I know that I've wasted that in a few months on OOImpress. Consider that $20/hr is pretty cheap her in the US and you'll see that OO has a very tough battle ahead of it. If there is any wonder why people aren't using it, just point the Sun executives to this example. I would be better off using MSOffice both for reasons of frustration and lost time/money. Based on this example, the only ones that would use OO are those that just cannot afford to lay out MSO or those that want to promote it at the expense of wasting their time (for whatever reason such as dislike of MSO and wanting to see a true competitor); well, I know I fall into the latter camp along with many of the posters here and we are walking away one after another because eventually we realize that the shine on OO has lost its luster. So unless Sun makes some changes real quickly then the ones that are using it but can afford it are going to walk away if they haven't already. It just isn't worth our time. Heck, I know that I'd even offer $$ if the package was anywhere near MSO but it isn't and I'm not about to give money to a

These are often referred to as bugs. If it used to work quickly and no longer does then guess what? It's a defect. I guess they made it work fast before by accident and your slowing it down now makes it a valuable feature. And I love OOo Later which should be properly named Whenever we feel like getting to it or nicety but not really important or we really don't care I wouldn't be so pissed if I wasn't such an OO promoter but I'm starting to lean heavily toward MS Office as you can get it for about $55 OEM and it works FAST and has TONS more features. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It's amazing how coders have absolutely no business sense. It's about VALUE which is why BMWs and Mercedes sell so well even though they are pricey vehicles - people perceive them to be a value for their dollar. Even free things have a value to them - just because it costs NOTHING doesn't mean that it has infinite value. At the price pt of $200 MS isn't a value compared to OO but at $55 it becomes a much greater value. Now with MS Off. 2007 coming out it'll be a great value at $75 and OO will be left in the dust with productivity, ease of use, and speed. Free my eye - how much time do I spend finding your niggling bugs and reporting problems. How is this FREE? I can attribute a value to a great many things and back in 2000 Stardivision had a VALUABLE product and it only took Sun six years to reduce that value (actually, they did it in 2). Note: 1) Cheap or free does not mean infinite value 2) People ARE willing to pay for things so long as it has value 3) Sun has been steadily improving the value of OO after drastically reducing the value of it after the purchase of Stardivision and it currently stands, IMHO, as a net negative from when they purchased it - slower, buggier, less GUI consistency. I've probably been using this package for a LOT longer than you have been working on it as I go back to the original StarDivision days and I KNOW what they had for a product and I KNOW what you have. I also worked with them on issues and NEVER had to deal with responses like yours even though I got it for free. I can get MS Office for close to nothing but I'm choosing to help OOo but thanks to your replies - I'll reconsider. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Do you miss Marco too? :D I'm glad to hear that there is a plan to improve the speeds but I do have 1 question. If StarDivision's code was also bloatware then why did it run SO much faster than todays code? Granted, it might have been bloated (from a coder's perspective) but it was good enough (from a user's perspective) and today's code just isn't good enough from either perspective. I'm not pissed at Sun but I wish that they left the product alone - as it ran FAST - and just added features before tearing it all apart. Just to be clear, the complaints aren't meant to be directed at the coders as I know that you do what you are told but more so toward the philosophy and direction which is clearly management's responsibility. I'm sorry to hear about your working conditions - especially when you could be watching the world cup in person and having a pint, LOL. Take care and take it easy. The comments weren't directed at you but more the company's closed philosophy and direction of the package. When I had the original packages, I thought wow, this is great - imagine if some money were put behind it then Sun bought it and I thought OMG, this is going to kill MS Office but alas there haven't been many feature additions over 6 yrs and the program runs MUCH slower than original so I feel like a deflated airbag and I don't have much, if any, enthusiasm for a project that I strongly supported in the past. I realize that this is out of your control. Keep up the good work and here's to hoping that OO catches MS Office in the next 5 yrs. MS knows how to copy and many of the features that used to be exclusive to OO are showing up in MS Off 2007. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

This becomes a significant problem for me when I'm creating presentations with different font sizes. Needless to say, with a 2ghz Pentium M this should NOT be the case. How is it that this couldn't be replicated on your own such that you needed an example document? Sometimes I wonder if you guys even USE the product that you are promoting. MS Office 95 was faster on a pentium. Please please please stop with the bloatware. The original 5.2 version (when you bought Stardivision) worked 10x faster than what you currently have - what have you been doing?

Can you improve the user experience by improving these tiems - it's ridiculous that a presentation program 8 yrs ago on a machine of the same vintage had a better user experience, with respect to responsiveness, than what is currently offered by Impress.

Look we can argue the points but this has been broken, fixed, broken, fixed, Betas are to get a first impression, but I highly doubt things that are THIS broken are called Betas. Heck, you guys are shunning the scientific community with your regression analysis on Calc so that you can improve it for the SOHO market and I understand that (sort of) but the SOHO market is going to use your templates and THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN caught VERY early - even before the alpha stage. I've never seen a beta where one of the MAJOR features was broken. USUALLY, in my experience, BETAS have minor bugs that get fixed and YES, I've used A LOT of beta packages and have been part of many bug-fixing/BETA testing/quality control teams. In my honest opinion, if something this GLARINGLY OBVIOUS was missed then I don't have much faith in the rest of the package. I like to contribute to OOS software and I have YET to donate to OO and I guess I should thank you guys for continuing to give me reasons for not doing so. Your response is yet another reason along with your developers working on the WRONG things and ignoring IMPORTANT issues. Keep prettying up the GUI and forget the features, useability, and stability and see how many turn back to better alternatives even if it means paying for it. You heard it hear first. By the way, I've donated WAY more for OOS than I've spent on closed-source software and THAT is saying a lot. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

No matter how many bugs/issues get filled about error/statistical analysis/trending they continue to view these as enhancements.

[www-issues] [Issue 366] Select 'Range' for error bars
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=366 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Feb 13 13:22:53 -0800 2005 --- OK, enough is ENOUGH! This issue needs another evaluation. It shouldn't be under graphics and is DEFINITELY not an enhancement. This There are a whole slew of people that refuse to use this product because of the lack of this functionality. This is addressed to bm, cloph, joergwartenberg, and mmp. Whos IS it that you report to? Surely everyone reports to someone else and there HAS to be someone that can reevaluate whether this is an enhancement or a SERIOUSLY LACKING FEATURE. I would like have you guys/girls reevaluate as to whether this is an enhancement or not. Maybe we need to educate you guys/girls on what is lacking as maybe you are unaware as to how important these features are to ANYONE that has to ANY statistical analysis. Children in High School are exposed to this using Excel and almost every college student in ANY scientific field uses these features REGULARLY. For some, maybe spreadsheets are a way to tabulate data and run simple equations but for the scientific community it is used for this and MUCH more when we need to evaluate the data statistically. If these features cannot or WILL NOT be added then you are FORCING us to continue to use Excel. Who's attention do we have to get to have them take this more seriously? To everyone else that finds this a problem then use your VOTES to escalate this issue. I for one agree that the pretty features and the database issues are moot compared to this feature. I ask myself the following question all the time, who doesn't use the statistical features of a spreadsheet? For this reason alone I find it completely incomprehensible that these features are STILL not there. This product will remain second-rate until these features are included. So either you are not getting it or we aren't doing a better job explaining what the problem is. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
