Galleries don't always take as expected. Fonts don't work. (I have no idea why they are in that directory in the first place. Unless the config folder I tried transferring has things left over from OOo 1.x.) and to Mac? I don't have a Mac, and don't have access to a Mac. Pre Mac OS X, you couldn't do that, because a file was constructed from two different, separate strings of bits. Since Mac OS X is based upon BSD, it should be possible, with the same caveats as switching between Linux and Windows. jonathon - -- If Bing copied Google, there wouldn't be anything new worth requesting.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] My main machine is now a Mac
Hi :) Good to hear :) Does it have the regular Mac keyboard or does it still have a Windows key? Mouse with 2 keys? If i scrapped the Windows logo off my keyboard and carefully painted an Ubuntu logo instead could i get in trouble with MS? Also i was going to buy an Ubuntu roll-up keyboard but noticed it had the Windows icon on it's Windows key (and it didn't have a number-pad which is the main bit i usually need at work). Lol Anyway, it's good to hear another person has a Mac :) Regards from Tom :) From: Steve Edmonds steve.edmo...@ptglobal.com To: documentation@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Tue, 6 September, 2011 2:07:02 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-documentation] My main machine is now a Mac On 2011-09-06 12:21, Jean Weber wrote: Just to let you know (not that it's relevant to much of anything)... my main machine is now a MacBook Air.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] My main machine is now a Mac
Hi :) Errr, is it possible to copypaste the config folder from Windows to GnuLinux and to Mac? The folder in GnuLinux is something like ~/.libreoffice/3/user Would it be possible to have that folder on a usb-stick and then whichever machine you are on could use the same folder? Also if 2 people use the same login on the same machine could they have separate user-profiles? I think question is better for the Users List so i will ask it there instead of here.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] My main machine is now a Mac
Hi :) Ahh, that's great that you can still use a 'normal' mouse. It's less of a hassle switching between the different machines then :) Regards from Tom :) From: Jean Weber jeanwe...@gmail.com To: documentation@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Tue, 6 September, 2011 9:02:54 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-documentation] My main machine is now a Mac On Tue, Sep 6, 2011 at 18:53, Tom Davies tomdavie...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: Hi :) Good to hear :) Does it have the regular Mac keyboard or does it still have a Windows key?
