You can get every former released version from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old But those versions will get no bugfixes at all. Especially they will get no security bug fixes. I do not understand your problem. You should already have 6.4.7 and there will never be a 6.4.8. So why do you need a download link at that website?

(1) You see the difference, when you use style inheritance. If you set the color to "yellow" in the child, you will indeed get yellow in case the parent has FillStyle="NONE" and the child will be transparent in case the parent has "SOLID + 100% transparency". (2) When you use area fill for paragraph background, then you get interoperability problems, because other applications (I have tested AOO4.2 and Word 2010) do not get the transparency for paragraph background correctly, but interpret FillStyle "NONE" correctly. (3) If a search for attributes will be implemented, then FillStyle="None" is surely different from "SOLID + 100%transparency". (4) You need "NONE" anyway, because "NONE" is value of enum FillStyle in the API.

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] Bugzilla Idea: Issues assign to me
Hi, Xisco Faulí schrieb: Hi all, Do you think it would be plausible to have a link in bugzilla's menu to quickly check the issues assign to oneself like the link 'My bugs'? Right now, the only way I found to check this is in 'Advanced Search' - Custom Search - Assignee equals to 'user' which IMHO, is quite tedious. You define this query once and then save it as named query. It will show up as link in the grey area on the start screen. On the other hand, I found that taking an issue doesn't change the status to ASSIGNED. Could bugzilla be hacked to do it automatically or it's intentioned? You clicked on the link "take" in the line "Assigned To" and that does not work? Please look into your account in tab "Permissions", whether you have the permission for assigning a bug.

Please find the screen-shot here https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=102053 Underline goes through the descenders of some western characters too.

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] ODF compatibility tests
Hi Jay, Jay Philips schrieb: Hi All, I was curious what compatibility tests are being run to ensure that LibO displays ODF accurately. There exists no reference implementation for ODF. I had asked a similar question a few days back on the LibO QA mailing list but never got a response. Is there an archive of standard compliant odf 1.0/1.1 and 1.2 files that is available? Alternatively, is there an ODF test to validate if a ODF file outputted by an ODF compatible software complies to the ODF standard and can output the file as a pdf to show how it should be rendered, somewhat similar to the Acid test for CSS. Please keep in mind, that LibreOffice writes ODF1.2 extended as default. That contains more than currently specified in ODF1.2. Likely not all, but the most differences are documented in https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/ODF_Implementer_Notes As part of my extensive testing of .docx files in LibO, i'm currently testing ODF outputted by LibO to see how well its imported into Word 2010 and 2013, as well as testing ODF outputted by Word 2010 and 2013 to see how well its imported into LibO. It would be nice to have a ODF software that i could use its output as a reference to compare these results against, as i've found ODF outputted by word 2010 that doesnt open correctly in LibO but did in Calligra Words and i've also found ODF files on libreoffice.org that displayed differences in LibO 4.1 and 4.2. Currently if a .doc, .docx or .rtf loads different between LibO and ms word, i report these bugs, but if there are load differences for .odt files its difficult to know if its a LibO or ms word problem. Perhaps validator http://odf-validator2.rhcloud.com/odf-validator2/ or http://officeshots.org/ might help. For MS Word you should consider the information from Microsoft as well. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20601 The normative reference is the spec itself. https://www.oasis-open.org/standards#opendocumentv1.2 If you cannot resolve it using the spec, you can write to opendocument-us...@lists.oasis-open.org, or if you can already point to the place where something is not precise enough specified write to office-comm...@lists.oasis-open.org. Or write an issue about the difference and attach a small(!) test document. Some people here are involved in the OASIS OpenDocument TC.
