Re: [Libreoffice] Cups.h Missing
I've never used dnl check before, can you give me a quick tutorial or link me somewhere? Bug I'm trying to fix is this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/831305 You can see my section under jmadero, that's what I'm trying to pintpoint. I'm installing version 2.1.0 from OOo to see if the bug still exists, if it doesn't I'll start comparing code to see if I can find out why it currently exists, part of compiling from source is just to get the experience, also this way if I make a patch or an alteration I should be able to recompile relatively easily.

Really - compiling OO.o is not advisable ;-) you would prolly do better with a root cause analysis than trying to do that. What is the bug ?

Hi Joel, On Tue, 2011-12-13 at 11:19 -0800, Joel Madero wrote: I've never used dnl check before, can you give me a quick tutorial or link me somewhere? dnl is an m4 comment statement ;-) Bug I'm trying to fix is this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/831305 Fine - again; I really think that starting at OO.o 2.1.0 is a waste of time. Certainly, you will have lots of odd trouble compiling it. I'm installing version 2.1.0 from OOo to see if the bug still exists, if it doesn't I'll start comparing code to see if I can find out why it currently exists, part of compiling from source is just to get the experience, also this way if I make a patch or an alteration I should be able to recompile relatively easily. I would -really- strongly recommend building the very latest libreoffice from git; as described here: http://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/developers/ That should work out of the box (as it were); though perhaps running: ./g checkout libreoffice-3-5 will give you a more reliable build.

The problem comes up, because the default setting has changed from inserting space between number and text to inserting a tab.

Currently the tap stop position of the anonymous predefined styles are the same for all kind of numberings. Perhaps it is possible to use different positions or even kind of separators for the different predefined anonymous styles. For the named styles an improvement is not quite so urgent because those users who work with named styles are likely able to change the settings by themselves. The problem is connected to the claim, that the indent don't work for numbers with more than one digit for example in numbering kind (#).

Re: [Libreoffice] Cups.h Missing
So is this not a bug then? It seems to me that going back to a space seems much more functional as the default makes it so that the look of the bullets/outline is very sloppy. If it is a bug, I'm still interested in tracking down the code responsible and altering it. This will be my first attempt to contribute to LO and it's been an ongoing annoyance for me as I outline a lot.

Ah - if the look in outline mode is very sloppy - then that's a bug we ought to fix :-) If it is a bug, I'm still interested in tracking down the code responsible and altering it. This will be my first attempt to contribute to LO and it's been an ongoing annoyance for me as I outline a lot. Thanks for the input from both of you Sure - so, IIRC the tab based bullet indents is a huge interoperability win (do read through Regina's nice links though). But clearly if the result is ugly, then we need to do more intelligent tab placement I suspect, and it'd be great to poke the code to work out how best that can be done.
