[tdf-discuss] Suggestion: Open to last edited page
I did not find this in my searches or anything in the LibreOffice options. So, sorry if its there and I just did not find it. I would like for a document (any document) to open to the last page that I was on when I closed it. I have a large document. When I go back, I always have to locate where I left off work. I started just never closing the document, which I dont like to do. So, to me it would be a nice feature, and I would think, easy to add. I realize it may go to the last page I edited, not the last page I was viewing. Thats ok with me, still, either or both would be a good added feature. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Suggestion-Open-to-last-edited-page-tp3639383p3639383.html Sent from the Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

I remember we have had this feature in a former OOo-version, but I do not remember why it has been dropped. Maybe related to a change in the ODF-format. Anybody else?

Because it has not been dropped. It behaves just as in OOo: When the data in user-data doesn't match the data in the document properties (or is empty), this means for LO → open at first page. If user-data is filled out (Name), and it matches the document properties (creted/saved by), then it will open at saved cursor position, i.e. last edit position. Maybe related to a change in the ODF-format. Nope, nothing like that. ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Thats ok with me, still, either or both would be a good added feature. Actually it will go to the last page that your mouse cursor was on. if you want it to go to a particular place when you open it again, all you have to do is place your cursor there. (I am not sure if it will do this if you completely close the file, but if you minimize it, it certainly will, and that is what you should do with any document that you expect to soon return to). I have tried this out. If you just put the cursor somewhere then Close without saving, the cursor position is not remembered. If you have to Save on Closing, then it will be remembered, otherwise the position remembered will be where it was when the document is last Saved. Of course, by default, you cannot Save a document that has not been modified, but you can change that in Tools Options... General. If you do change that option, and remember to Save before Close, then you will go back to the last page even if you were just viewing it and providing you moved the cursor to it as well. I think that is the definitive answer, but I will stand corrected, if it is not.
