[libreoffice-documentation] Re: Base - BG7303 - Linking to Databases - First Review
Hello everybody, I have processed the comments on Chapter 7 (Linking to Databases) and returned the updated document to the Work in Progress folder. The new file is called BG7307-LinkingToDatabases_SF_VN_30Jan2022.odt and it is ready for 2nd review if anybody is available. A few matters arising: 1. Dev has noted that several figures in Chapter 7 would benefit from being anglicized. As mentioned in an earlier email, this is a recurring theme throughout many chapters and my recommendation is that we do such updates at a later issue, when we have time to thoroughly review and update affected chapters. 2. The section entitled "Importing PDF records" refers to a footnote that mentions a sample database called "Example_PDFFormular_Import.odb". Does anybody know if a copy of this exists - it doesn't appear to be in the same ZIP file as the other sample databases. 3. The Note after Figure 19 mentions a bug in the Mail Merge Wizard. Does anybody know if this bug still exists and, if so, what is the number of this bug? 4. As far as I am aware, the books do not normally contain hyperlinked cross-references to other books or to other chapters in the same book. Is that everybody else's understanding? 5. It has been suggested that in sections of code we could disable spell checking by selecting the code and clicking Tools > Language > For Selection > None. Is anybody aware of any issues that might arise if we do this? Regards, Steve On 28/01/2022 09:18, Vasudev Narayanan wrote: Hi - I am checking in after first review with review comments.

Hello everybody, I have processed the comments on this chapter and returned the updated document to the Work in Progress folder.

This chapter and those that follow have had no significant update since the last issue. All that's changed is the figure captions (many added, some edited) and a few minor edits to "tone down" any negative statements that I found. I implemented all edits with track changes switched on. Please focus the review on those aspects to make sure that I've done nothing stupid. Beyond that it would be better not to propose further changes at this time because we haven't got the time or people to update the document fully in a reasonable timescale for 7.3.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6
Hi, Thanks for the comments. I will check through the tracked changes and process them in the next few days. As for the six additional comments listed below, I'd prefer to address the document-related issues when we get around to properly checking and updating the affected chapter. Perhaps we need a mechanism to maintain a list of BG issues that we know about, but haven't time to resolve at present?

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Updating the Getting Started Guide
I've hunted around to see if I could find your reviewed copy of that chapter, but I can't find it. I have no idea what may have happened to it. Please do whatever you think is necessary to fix the chapter, including updating the info on JRE/JDK for macOS. I apologize for not responding earlier about Automobile.odb. I have now found a more comprehensive version of that file and put it here: https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/apps/files/?dir=/LibreOffice%20Documentation/English/Contributor%20Resources=81380 It may be the one used for the illustrations in that chapter. I'm sure some of the data needs improvement, so please feel free to update it and replace screenshots as needed in the chapter. The copy on the wiki is, I think, deliberately lacking in detail so people following the tutorial can fill it in themselves, so I have not replaced it.
