when you don't know which settings are meant (because there is no 
detailed message on the screen), then of course we don't them either. ;-)


Let's start from the beginning:
- download only from "http://www.openoffice.org/download/;
- choose the favorite download options
- click on the green button

When you still get problems:
- try at a different time, maybe there is a temporary problem at the
  mirror(s)
- enable cookies (normally not needed but maybe it's helping)
- make sure JavaScript is enabled
- if possible, try with another browser

If all doesn't help you can use a direct link but you have to browse a 
bit on your own to come to the wished download file:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.2/binaries/

Since you didn't state the exact message you got I am guessing that Gatekeeper is the problem.

My Windows Build Settings

2014-01-23 Thread Rob Weir
I've noticed a few questions recently about getting a Windows build
environment set up.  I'm not the world's greatest expert on this, but
I was able to get a build running. If I can do it, then anyone can do
it ;-)

This was on a Windows 7 32-bit system, a clean OS install, with all
current Windows patches.  No VC++ installed, just the free SDK.

Here are the commands I used, after installing the pre-req's:

--

 autoconf

SDK_PATH=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v7.0

SourceMain=`pwd`

./configure --with-frame-home=$SDK_PATH --with-psdk-home=$SDK_PATH
--with-midl-path=$SDK_PATH/bin --with-directx-home=C:/Program
Files/Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)
--with-ant-home=/cygdrive/c/ant
--with-dmake-url=http://dmake.apache-extras.org.codespot.com/files/dmake-4.12.tar.bz2;
--with-epm-url=http://www.msweet.org/files/project2/epm-3.7-source.tar.gz;

You don't need --disable-binfilter anymore, binfilter has been removed.
You also don't need --with-epm-url, epm is a *nix tool.
Better use --with-nsis-path to create the EXE installer.
Add --enable-category-b and --enable-bundled-dictionaries if you want 
the full feature set of OpenOffice.

Re: My Windows Build Settings

2014-01-23 Thread Greg Bullock

Thank you, Rob.

How is the JDK part of your configuration handled?  Do you have 
something on your environment path?


I've had no success with either

--with-jdk-home=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_51

or

--with-jdk-home=$JAVA_HOME_PATH
where
JAVA_HOME_PATH=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_51

Perhaps the space in the path name frustrates the aoo build, but so far 
I'm reluctant to move JDK to a different, spaceless folder.

OpenOffice Multi-User Settings

2013-08-10 Thread tech
Hello Dev-Team,

We use OpenOffice in our organization with a multi-user setting (server
computer and terminal users). We were running version 3.4.1 and everyone
had entered their config. settings on file-type to be saved as .doc, .ppt,
.xls.. But after upgrading to version 4.0.0, the settings are back to
default. Is there a way that I can enter the settings from the server and
it reflects on all the user accounts? or it has to be done for every user
account allover again?

Thanks

I.T. - Lira Diocese

you can edit the files calc.xcd, writer.xcd and impress.xcd in

I will try.
These 10 debugging flags already exist when I joined the OpenOffice 
development as a software developer of Sun's Writer team in 2002.


These flags were used for debugging purposes. Search for 'bTest[1..10]' 
in the Writer code (module sw) in order to figured more details about 
its purposes.
For example, by bTest5 - No idle format - it can be controlled, if the 
layout of the text document is calculated in the background triggered by 
trhe so-called 'idle formatter'.


These debugging flags were from ancient time. Thus, may be the one or 
the other is no longer active. From my point of view they can be removed.


Best regards, Oliver.

Re: Migration of User Settings from OOo3 to AOO4.0

2013-07-31 Thread Oliver-Rainer Wittmann

Hi

On 10.07.2013 12:03, Regina Henschel wrote:

Hi all,

the first start wizard has an option to migrate user settings from an
installed version 3. For me it is a highly customized OOo3.4.1.

These are my observations:

Transfer of BASIC libraries works.

Transfer of path settings does not work. I consider this a bug, because
this looses templates, autotexts .., which are not at the default
place. I suggest a release note to explain, that they are not really
lost, but the paths have to be added.

Transfer of palettes work. But that is a problem, because the new color
palette is not available. People might have customized palettes, with
colors for corporate identity for example. So transferring the palettes
is not wrong in general. Perhaps a merging of the palettes is possible
in future? Because of the short time till release I suggest to explain
the situation in a release note. The new default palettes are available
in a folder User - Kopie (for a German Windows 7).

Transfer of user dictionaries work.

Transfer of user gallery themes work.

Transfer of user autotexts works.

Transfer of own toolbars works, including rename of commands. Only the
position is different.

Transfer of customized toolbars works partially. Additional commands are
available, but own names of these commands are not transfered. The
show/hide status of the default commands is not transfered. Deleted
default commands appear again. So the user needs to customize the
toolbar again.



Thanks for this evaluation.
I would like to improve the migration of OpenOffice 3.x user profiles 
for the next release.


Regina, it would be great, if you could create corresponding issues for 
the stuff that is not working or which could be improved. You can assign 
these issue to me. May a meta issue for tracking these new issues would 
also make sense. And if you could also make your AOO 3.4.1 user profile 
available - may be only to me - for debugging and testing purposes then 
this would be also very appreciated.


Best regards, Oliver.


Kind regards
Regina

Can we elaborate on this? We are receving reports that, depending on 
what you choose in Transfer personal data, you get:

- Unchecked: the new palette is installed and works
- Checked: the new palette is invisible, the old one is shown, and not 
all color names in the old one are translated (perhaps since they got 
replaced)


If we can give some detailed user-friendly instructions in the Release 
notes at

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.0+Release+Notes
on how to import the new 4.0 palette after installation it would be great.

I'm not opening a Bugzilla issue since this seems more a documentation 
issue... What users will notice is that some colors have English names. 
And the answer should be Please import the new 4.0 palette: 
[instructions].


Regards,
  Andrea.

Transfer of palettes work. But that is a problem, because the new color
palette is not available. People might have customized palettes, with
colors for corporate identity for example. So transferring the palettes
is not wrong in general. Perhaps a merging of the palettes is possible
in future? Because of the short time till release I suggest to explain
the situation in a release note. The new default palettes are available
in a folder User - Kopie (for a German Windows 7).


Can we elaborate on this? We are receving reports that, depending on
what you choose in Transfer personal data, you get:
- Unchecked: the new palette is installed and works
- Checked: the new palette is invisible, the old one is shown, and not
all color names in the old one are translated (perhaps since they got
replaced)

If we can give some detailed user-friendly instructions in the Release
notes at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.0+Release+Notes
on how to import the new 4.0 palette after installation it would be great.


I had already added an item to the Known Issues section. Please try 
the way and improve the description if it is not user-friendly.

It might be, that switching to the new palette is not wanted. For 
example an enterprise, that has corporate identity colors in their 
palette. The correct solution would be a separate tool to merge colors 
and/or an easier way to switch palettes.


Kind regards
Regina

Thanks, the procedure worked perfectly. I added the other symptom (i.e., 
that you see some color names in English; this means you are still using 
the old palette).

[Default settings]Selecting a java environment

2013-04-06 Thread RGB ES
I think there is already a bug report for this, but I cannot find it right
now. When you perform a new install with a new profile, under the menu
Options → OpenOffice → Java you have the Use Java runtime environment
checkbox selected, but *none* of the available java environments listed
below is checked: you need to explicitly click on the radio button to the
left of one of the java version. This confuse new users, specially if they
have only one java environment on their systems, because they do not
realize that there is a radio button there and think that the first
checkbox should be enough, not understanding why base or other java based
components/extensions do not work. See for example this thread on the forum:

http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7t=60830

Is it possible to make AOO automatically select one of the listed java
environments? Or at least to make more clear that no jvm is selected?

Regards
Ricardo
