Calc: can the whole row be highlighted automatically when focus on a cell?
I am editing a calc file, and have to change data in discontinuous cells row by row. In order to avoid changing data of another row, I follow the steps for each: 1. edit data in one cell, e.g. C111 2. highlight the whole row manually to help me to locate the the next cell that need modify, e.g. F111 4. repeat highlight then select till this row finished. It will be helpful if the row can be highlighted automatically when I focus or edit a cell... -- Regards, Lou QingLe
[HELP]usage of XIndexReplace.replaceByIndex()?

suggest to make language package depend on base package
On windows, I installed Aoo3.4 en-US full installation package then zh-CN language package upon it. Then I upgrade to Aoo 3.4.1 en-US full installation set. Upgrade smoothly, while the 3.4 zh-CN language package remains and is used by the new 3.4.1 openoffice. My suggestion is to uninstall the corresponding language package while removing Aoo full installation set, atomatically, then user has to re-install the new version of language package after upgrade to new version. My reason: 1. if there are any UI change or any new translated string updated in current release, user may miss them 2. release No. and revision in help-about: it's not translated now. but once translated there may be a mistake: install aoo 3.4.1 base package and using 3.4 language package, what the revison should be? -- Regards, Lou QingLe

But I can do this in MS office 2010 Currently, I have problems reproducing your problem. Can you please be a little bit more specific? How do you copy the image? Are you using a browser? Which one? I have done the following using latest snapshot build for Windows, rev. 1296433: - open the website in Firefox - open context menu for the image - choose Copy Image - open an empty presentation document - hit keys Ctrl-V -- bitmap is pasted into the presentation. (Unfortunately, its background is black. I am experiencing the same in MS Paint. Thus, I assume that the copy process of Firefox does not recognized a possible existing Alpha channel for the transparency.) My 2nd try was: - open the website in Firefox - make a selection of the image using the mouse - hit keys Ctrl-C - open an empty presentation document - hit keys Ctrl-V -- nothing happens (the same happens in OOo 3.3). Reason for this is that the presentation document can not interpret the HTML in the clipboard. My 3rd try was: - open the website in Firefox - open context menu for the image - choose Copy Image Location - open an empty presentation document - menu Insert - Picture - From file - paste image URL into File name field - check checkbox Link - hit button Open -- image is inserted as linked image. It takes some time to download the image from the internet - I also had to allow the soffice.bin process to access the internet. Best regards, Oliver.

report builder extension: cannot be installed into r1293550 on XP, win7 64-bit or Ubuntu
On 1 March 2012 03:49, drew jensen drewjensen.in...@gmail.com wrote: On Wed, 2012-02-29 at 09:18 -0500, Rob Weir wrote: As we approach the first Release Candidate for Apache OpenOffice 3.4, it would be wonderful if we could have some more volunteers testing the latest dev snapshots builds. Following is some information on what this requires, and how you can help. First, if you have never tested a pre-release product before, know that bugs are expected. That is the purpose of testing, to find bugs so they can be fixed. Bugs could range from UI glitches, to incorrect formatting to crashes or even data corruption. So you probably don't want to use a test build for mission-critical tasks. Of course, I assume you have already backed up your important documents. You do have backups, right? Ideally you can do your testing on a separate machine from your main work machine, so if something goes wrong you will not interfere with your other work. The above are all sensible precautions when testing any pre-release software product. If you are ready to test, you can download the latest developer snapshot build from this page: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4+Unofficial+Developer+Snapshots We could use help verifying the install in all real-world scenarios, on clean OS installs, as upgrades to previous versions of OOo and as installs on machines where LibreOffice or Symphony are already installed. Installed on Ubuntu 11.04 alongside LibO 3.5 (64bit), OpenJDK 1.6 - no problems. Installed a few extensions - mixed results - Report Builder - install good, a couple of quick reports, good. I installed it to the ooo-dev r1291124 successfully on XP. But today when I try to install into r1293550, there always be a message Could not create java implementation loader, I tried on XP, win7 64-bit and Ubuntu, by using the build which provides full normal install sets... In IP_clearance page ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/IP_Clearance) I notice that several libararies are removed which are used by report builder extension, should this extension still be usable without those libararies? What's the impact of the removing? - a couple of addon, custom spell checkers - all good - PostgreSQL SDB extension - failure to load, missing file. - Template Changer - hangs AOO during install (twice) - MySQL - no reason to try (that is a huge hit guys) Will go ahead and do this all on Vista (32Bit) w/ existing 3.3 later today. So - looking at the test page I guess the Bases test are mine to add..and I'll start when I have the Vista VM running.. :-/ how ironic for that to be the case today.. (sorry comment not likely to be understood by many here, but a few may) Otherwise - I suppose bugzilla will also be in order here and there. Good job by the way... //drew Once you have installed, launch OpenOffice and look at the Help/About box. If the revision shown there matches the build you installed (e..g, r1293550) then the install was a success. Please send a short note to the ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org telling us what platform and scenario you installed (fresh install, upgrade, install next to LibreOffice, etc.). This will help us understand what scenarios have already been attempted and which have not. After you have installed, there are three approaches to testing, of increasing degrees of formality: 1) Just use the dev snapshot for your ordinary work, doing your ordinary tasks. When you observe a bug, submit a report on this to Bugzilla. 2) Self-directed testing. Pick an area of the product that you understand well, like printing or text formatting, or slide show transitions. Spend an hour or two trying to exercise that feature in all its variations. If there is a dialog box, try manipulating all of its values. If it is a formatting option, create a document that uses all variations. Try to break it. Try to think like a bug. A special area that could use attention is version compatibility. Take all of your OpenOffice.org 3.3 documents and open them up on AOO 3.4. Any errors? Formatting issues? Crashes? Missing data? Ditto for opening Microsoft Office documents. Are there any regressions, e.g., things that worked in 3.3 but now break in 3.4? Try it in the other direction as well. If you create a document in AOO 3.4, can it be read correctly in OOo 3.3? Did we do anything that breaks backwards compatibility? Another special area is to verify the translations. Install a multi-language install or a language pack and check the translation for completeness and accuracy. If it looks good, please send a note to the list, so we know it has already been verified.

I just added liush...@gmail.com to the qa-team group. -Rob 2012/2/27 xia zhao lilyzh...@gmail.com I created several queries for AOO 3.4 and hope anybody can view these queries and run the results. But when I tried to share my search result(query) to group, I only can find canconfirm, qa-users,canedit groups. People who are not in these groups can't view these queries. Can any Bugzilla admin can help setup one normal group, I means the ones who can create bug in Bugzilla, to view these public queries? Thanks a lot! Best Regards, Lily

how to install individual component on linux?
I'm running on redhat 6.1. In installing guide it says: Installing individual components is the same as above but only requires the specific module be installed. For example, install all core rpms and then install those for each module you wish, such as, openoffice.org-impress-2.0.0-1.i586.rpm to install only Impress so, I installed ooodev-ure-3.4.0-9586.i586.rpm and the 7 core packages. then try ooo-dev3-calc-3.4XXX.rpm.. but dependency massage appears: ooo-dev3 is needed. when I install ooo-dev3, ooobasis-dev3.4-images is needed... then I followed the message and installed: ooobasis-dev3.4-images-.rpm ooo-dev3-3.4.rpm ooobasis-dev3.4-calc-XXX.rpm ooo-dev3-calc.XXX.rpm But, soffice cannot run after that... Then I tried another way: 1. remove all the packages installed except ooodev-ure by command rpm -e `rpm -qa | grep ooo` 2. install all basis rpms: rpm -ivh ooobasis*.rpm 3. install ooo-dev3-3.4.0XXX.rpm 4. run soffice from /opt/dev3, succeed, and all the components are able to be used. I can new each type of application... There are still 7 rpms not installed: ooo-dev3-base...rpm ooo-dev3-calc...rpm ooo-dev3-draw...rpm ooo-dev3-en-US...rpm ooo-dev3-impress...rpm ooo-dev3-math...rpm ooo-dev3-writer...rpm What are they used for?
