 Ahh excellent. So there is a call for it. A wiki-page could heave a 
less obscure title such as http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/FilterList 
or perhaps something that office workers might understand. How about 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Formats As for the quality of the 
code i was pretty impressed that it appeared so quickly. 
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n3648970/good_code.png 
good_code.png Fernand Vanrie wrote the code faster than anyone was able 
to point to the old link. The old link's most recent list was for OOo 
version 1.1 rc1 which is a little out-of-date now. Fernand's list was 
for .4.x which is a lot more up-to-date. Regards from Tom :) -- View

[libreoffice-users] Installation problem LO 3.5 beta

2012-01-11 Thread Karl-Heinz Bellgardt
Hello,

for testing of previously reported bugs I tried to install LibO 3.5
beta in parallel to OpenOffice 2.4.3  and LibO 3.3.4. Before this
installation attempt I had removed an existing (and working)
parallel installation of LibO 3.4.

But the new installation always fails with the message:

  Runtime error! Program ...\unopkg.bin
  This program has requested the Runtime to terminate in an
  unusual way. Please contact ...

After pressing OK it shows

  unopkg.bin has crashed

Also when running soffice.exe it always says

  LOdev3.5 has crashed.

Does anyone have an idea how to get it installed?

I have already tried to run the installation without Java or
anti-virus software, but no change.

Here comes some data of my system:

Software to be installed:
LibO-Dev_3.5.0beta2_Win_x86_install_multi.msi from
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/
Installed:
LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401) tag libreoffice-3.3.4.1
OpenOffice 2.4.3

System:
32 Bit Windows Vista Home Premium SP2
AMD Turin 64x2 Mobile Technology TL-58

Thanks,
Karl

[libreoffice-users] So what's with LibO 3.5?

2012-01-11 Thread Onyeibo Oku
Greetings

I've been seeing libO 3.5 on this list and I'm now curious. What is in this 3.5 
that should make me peep? What changed and what does the user stand to benefit 
from the changes?

I like bleeding edge, there's got to be a good excuse to dive in first. Can 
someone enlighten me? I use 3.4.4 at the moment.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Need API support for iOS

2012-01-11 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
The license is free in cost but you may want to read-up on the licence.  I 
think this is the crucial link you are probably interested in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#RequiredToClaimCopyright

Also these links are interesting
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#DoesTheGPLAllowMoney
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyDoesTheGPLPermitUsersToPublishTheirModifiedVersions

I got those from the FAQ provided by the Free Software Foundation
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html
Interesting side-note from Richard Stallman
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-free.html

The actual license is here if you like legalese
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html

There has been a recent thread which might help?
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Names-of-output-filters-Name-of-HTML-output-filter-td3639830.html
Fernand Vanrie's first answer?

To get more info about the API's you might have more luck on the devs lists or 
whatever they use.  I am not sure exactly what you are trying to do but it 
might be better to join their team and do the work as part of their team in 
order to get your code some quality assurance testing on hundreds of thoiusands 
of real-world machines world-wide by real users rather than just being tested 
on whatever you can lay your hands on.  Of course that would mean your code 
would be released under the LGPL.  
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Came to know that LibreOffice is working on such stuff for iOS. If so

I am not sure about the symbol-catalogue entries but mostly settings are copied

I run writer on multiple machines (Windows and Linux) and I like to share 
settings between them. I know how to do this with macros and menus by copying 
files. Now I would like to share the new entries that I've created in the 
symbol catalogue of the formula editor. These seem to be defined in 
registrymodifications.xcu. That file is very large, contains all sorts of 
stuff, and is hard to read. Does it make sense to copy it from one machine to 
another? If not, is there some other way of sharing symbol-catalogue entries?

Thanks.

[libreoffice-users] [3.4.4/Windows] How to move cell with mouse?

2012-01-11 Thread Gilles
Hello,

I want to move cell A1 to A2 with the mouse:

I select A1, then press Alt, and move the cell with the mouse: Nothing
happens

I select A1, then press Ctrl, and move the cell with the mouse: A2 is also
selected and nothing happens

Also tried Shift, Ctrl+Shift, Alt+Ctrl, etc.: Doesn't work

How can I drag and drop a cell with the mouse?

As a temporary solution, I just Cut (Ctrl+X) and Paste (Ctrl+V).

I read this, but I can't figure it out.

Gilles wrote:
 I want to move cell A1 to A2 with the mouse:

This is easy enough.  You just select the cell, and then
click-and-drag it - you don't need to press any keys on the keyboard.
The trick is to actually *select* the cell.

Try this:
To move A1:A2 to B3:B4, simply select A1:A2 and click-and-drag A1:A2 to B3:B4.

To move A1 to A2 (which was your original question), click on A1
(don't release the mouse button yet).  Then drag the mouse down (or to
the side) to select more than one cell (still don't release the mouse
button).  Then drag the mouse back to A1 (while still holding the
mouse button).  When the mouse is over A1, you can release the mouse
button again.  Now A1 is actually *selected*.  You can now drag A1 to
A2 (or wherever you wanted it).

In the examples above, you could also use the keyboard to select the
cell.  To do this, hold down shift, press down, press up and release
shift.  Now you can drag the cell to wherever you want.

Regards
Stephan

 I'm not sure you can move just one cell. Two or more cells can be
moved by clicking on the first cell and then selecting the rest to the
cells. Then this group of cells can be moved in the various ways that
Help describes.
 If there is an empty cell adjacent to the cell you want to move,
then you can move these two cells together. But that obviously has some
draw backs.

selects A1 and A2, it doesn't move A1 to A2. I also tried keeping the left

Is there a video that shows how to perform such a simple task?

Are you sure you followed the steps I described carefully?  When you
select A1 and A2 (before releasing the button), drag the mouse back to
A1 and then release the button.  Then A1 should be blue.  Then you
drag A1 to A2.

The Release Notes page fails to mention that LO 3.5 now supports Java 7
(1.7). In fact if you have both Java 6 and 7 you can select which one to use
in Tools, Options, LibreOffice, Java

[libreoffice-users] Best JRE for LibreOffice on a 64-bit system: 32 or 64 bit ?

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

This may sound obvious but I am not certain of the answer and wanted to
double-check here.

When installting LibreOffice for Windows for use on a 64-bit system, is
it best to install the 32-bit or the 64-bit JRE ?

Thanks for any information on this.

Fabian

2012-01-11 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Sadly you have to do the LibreOffice shuffle as one person put it.  You can't 
move single cells on their own but can move blocks of at least 2 cells.  It's a 
bit weird but soon you hardly even notice yourself working around the issue.

 Thanks, but it doesn't work. When I select A1, unclick (ie. remove my finger

 button clicked while I moved to A2, but it also selects the two cells
 instead of moving A1 to A2.

Are you sure you followed the steps I described carefully?  When you
select A1 and A2 (before releasing the button), drag the mouse back to
A1 and then release the button.  Then A1 should be blue.  Then you
drag A1 to A2.

Just read the instructions that were given Select the cell you want

keeping the mouse button down move back to the original cell. Now let go

[libreoffice-users] Libre Office brings my system down

2012-01-11 Thread Stefan Dröge
Hi all, since a long time I experience really annoying crashes of
LibreOffice that bring my complete system (Linux) down.
The symptoms are:
- Everything stops, only the mouse cursor is still movable (however the
cursor Icon stays in the last state)
- I can't even switch to the console (Ctrl+F1 for example), Ctrl+Backspace
doesn't work either
- No harddisk actions can be heared
- The system only responds to Magic SysRq keys

So the system seems to be completely dead.

I experience these problems since a longer time. I tried LO 3.3.4 as well
as 3.4.4
I tried it on Kubuntu and openSuse (KDE), both 64 bit.

If I remember correctly, the crash occured when I drag an object in a
document. It doesn't happen every time.

Has anybody else experienced these issues? Which information can I provide
to you to investigate?

Kind regards, Stefan

Regardless, I'd still like to know what's the recommended JRE to install

This has already been answered.

Libreoffice is *only* 32 bit on Windows. You can NOT use a 64 bit JRE 
with a 32bit program. Period. So, you must use the 32bit JRE.



I didn't find a source for your indication that Only 32-bit JRE works
in LibreOffice for windows.


There probably isn't, but it is irrelevant - yes, you can *install* a 
64bit JRE, but Libreoffice can not *use* it.



In fact JRE as a requirement for LibreOffice (Base or else) is not
listed at all under the requirements:
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/system-requirements/


It isn't a *requirement*, but it is necessary for certain things to 
operate (correctly, or at all), like for example the wizards.


Just install the 32bit JRE and forget about it...

and it has been assigned to Kohei Yoshida (Calc's guru) and included in the

Hi Fabian,

I'm running LibreOffice 3.4.4 on several Linux machines running Ubuntu 
11.10. Some are 32 bit and some are 64 bit. For LibreOffice I'm using 
both 32 bit and 64 bit Java. On the 32 bit systems for LibreOffice only 
I'm using jre-6u21-linux-i586,  and on the 64 bit systems for 
LibreOffice I'm using jre-6u21-linux-x64. Everything works perfectly. 
I'm not sure you could install the 32 bit Java on a 64 bit machine. I 
never tried.

Hi,

I never knew you could do that either. In OpenOffice, and then in

On windows, sure you can, I do it all the time...

But since Linux has 64 bit versions of Libreoffice, you don't *need* to 
install the 32 bit version... but as long as you have a 64 bit multilib 
system (capable of installing/running 32bit apps), then I'm sure you 
could install both versions.


The important thing is to install the *same* version (32 or 64 bit) as 
the version of Libreoffice (32 or 64 bit) that is installed. *They* 
*must* *match*.

Hi :)
That is really good news because for previous versions of Office we have been 
stuck on a fairly old version of java.  Plenty of current stable versions of 
GnuLinux were using that older version of java but one really wants to be a 
bit safer in Windows.  

We still know there are going to be many flaws and vulnerabilites found in any 
version of java no matter how new it is but at least the newer version might 
have LESS holes!

2012-01-11 Thread Onyeibo Oku
There!

3.5 is the way forward. I'm running it and I'm enjoying the experience :)
I just wish there's a better icon theme or is there a way to throw the UI open 
to system's icon theme. I use faenza on GTK3 (fedora 16, Gnome3)?

Hmm, the callout leaders for comments didn't get reviewed. Sometimes comments 
on a phrase overlap. It should be better to use highlights rather than 
arrowheads for the 'comment' callout(balloon). I use this feature a lot :(

I'm happy to 'miss' the conspicuous margin borders ... Just neat.

Java 1.7 support? Thought the idea was to liberate LibreOffice of the Java 
dependency in order to improve performance.  Great, my custom-developed

issues there.

Until then ... Well done LibreOffice team!

in Tools, Options, LibreOffice, Java

Re: [libreoffice-users] Best JRE for LibreOffice on a 64-bit system: 32 or 64 bit ?

2012-01-11 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
The _21 is probably the best one for Office so don't uninstall it until you 
have tried out the 1.7 (if you ever get time to do that!).  I think Ubuntu 
10.04 LTS uses _21 (or _22 or _20 which are kinda fine too for LO).  Note that 
there is much less problem running older versions of java in GnuLinux thn 
there might be in Windows although obviously nothing is completely safe, 
especially not java.  Even in Windows LO allows you to use a different version 
of java than the version used by other apps.  Most apps just take the latest 
version but LO allows you to select which one.  It'd be really nice to clear 
ones that you are not using off the machine completely of course.
Regards from
Tom :)

 IMHO, it is not a good news.
 Drag cells by clic on a tiny border instead of anywhere in the cell is
 *not* an improvement :(
 

This is the way all spreadsheets work. Clicking on the center of the cell is
supposed to enter Edit mode.

In any case the clickable area is defined by the programmers (in Excel
it's around 5 pixels wide, which is plenty) so even if you have a very thin
border, you have a larger area to click on.

A small correction to my previous post: this enhancement is NOT on the
LibreOffice 3.4 most annoying bugs :( It should be though ;)

Hi all, since a long time I experience really annoying crashes of
LibreOffice that bring my complete system (Linux) down.
The symptoms are:
- Everything stops, only the mouse cursor is still movable (however the
cursor Icon stays in the last state)
- I can't even switch to the console (Ctrl+F1 for example), Ctrl+Backspace
doesn't work either
- No harddisk actions can be heared
- The system only responds to Magic SysRq keys

So the system seems to be completely dead.

I experience these problems since a longer time. I tried LO 3.3.4 as well
as 3.4.4
I tried it on Kubuntu and openSuse (KDE), both 64 bit.

If I remember correctly, the crash occured when I drag an object in a
document. It doesn't happen every time.

Has anybody else experienced these issues? Which information can I provide
to you to investigate?

Kind regards, Stefan

The problem is, in windows, if you have a vulnerable version of java, it 
can be exploited by whatever malware wants to exploit it, regardless of 
what you tell other apps to use.


It is simply unwise to keep old/exploitable version of java on any system.

[libreoffice-users] What about the standard state of the hybrid pdf format?

Hi Everyone,

I'm asking about the standardization of *hybrid pdf* format.

This is because I think it is a very useful thing, but I don't want to 
use it too much if it is a weak standard that is pretty near to be 
changed or abandoned.
Is Oasis-Open or ISO or other standard Organization well defining this 
format?


What do you think about?

Hi :)
Pdf is a proprietary format.  There is no Open version and no community.  
Testing is done on a relatively small number of machines.  It would be really 
great if there were a successfull OpenDocument Format equivalent that gained 
even as much traction as Odt etc have.

Re: Re: [libreoffice-users] Bug in Calc?

2012-01-11 Thread D L Koch
Cor, thanks for your response.  I did attempt to isolate the problem as 
you describe, but I do not get consistent results.  For example, in some 
cases I was able to save the file with most of the elements in the new 
sheet, yet when I tried it yesterday I tried to save the file after 
adding the new sheet but with nothing in it.  It crashed again.  Also, I 
should add that none of the formulae, charts, etc., refer to anything on 
another sheet -- all self-contained.  Also, I didn't want to post a bug 
report immediately until I've eliminated operator error, which 
frequently occurs.


(Sorry for the delay in responding.  I had surgery yesterday and wasn't 
up to doing much experimenting.)


--David

Interesting situation, that I've not been able to reproduce on Ubuntu 
(3.4.4) nor in Win7 on my VM (3.4.3).


Would it be possible for you to cut down in file / formulea etc. to see 
if there is a specific element that makes this crash happen?
I'm sure the devs would really appreciate that, cause then they can fix 
the bug.
Or maybe it is possible for you to share a file that crashes, so that 
others can test?
Attachments are not posted to the list, so you must share via nable, or 
another on line spot.


thanks for your post!

[libreoffice-users] Calc bug involving drop-down boxes in grouped areas

2012-01-11 Thread Jim Trigg
So apparently if you create a column of drop-down boxes sized to the
rows they're in and anchored to the cells, then group the area and
collapse it, it disrupts the drop-down box positioning.

What I expect: when I close the group (collapse it) the list boxes
(all in rows entirely within the group) will be hidden and when I open
the group (expand it) each list box will reappear with its upper left
corner at the upper left corner of the cell it's anchored to.

What I get: when I close the group, one list box remains visible but
shorter than it is supposed to be.  When I open the group, the list
boxes all reappear, but it looks like most of them have been shifted
down about 2/3 of a row.

Any suggestions?  Is there a bug tracking system into which I should
submit this?

Thanks,
Jim Trigg

I think you missed the point, Tom. Carlo is talking about Hybrid PDF, a
format available only in OO and LO using the PDF Import Extension. This
allows you to save a document with a PDF extension but includes the ODF
file. This means that you can send it to anyone who has a PDF reader but it
can also be edited as an ODF and when it is saved the PDF reflects the
modifications.

This is a fantastic format.

I can't answer for TDF about the future of this format but given that the
PDF Import extension is included by default in the LO installer and that it
is updated by the LO developers, it seems there is some interest in moving
this format forward ;)

I hope someone can provide a more official answer ;)

You are wrong. You should check the facts before posting.
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format

   Portable Document Format (PDF) is an open standard for document exchange. 
This file format,
   created by Adobe Systems in 1993, is used for representing documents in a 
manner
   independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.[
   ...
   While the PDF specification was available for free since at least 2001,[4] 
PDF was
   originally a proprietary format controlled by Adobe, and was officially 
released as an open
   standard on July 1, 2008, and published by the International Organization for
   Standardization as ISO 32000-1:2008.[1][5] In 2008, Adobe published a Public 
Patent License
   to ISO 32000-1 granting a royalty-free rights for all patents owned by Adobe 
that are
   necessary to make, use, sell and distribute PDF compliant implementations.[6]

Switch to 'Page Break Preview'.
Mark the range.
Choose 'Add Print Range' from context menu.

RE: [libreoffice-users] What about the standard state of the hybrid pdf format?

2012-01-11 Thread Dennis E. Hamilton
A variety of PDF specifications have become established as international 
standards.  The first was for PDF/A (archival purposes) and there have been 
others since.

There are of course open-source versions of PDF and Postscript viewers and 
creators. The code that produces and reads PDF in LibreOffice is clearly an 
open implementation.  

The inclusion of attachments and even having an index of attachments is covered 
in the ISO PDF Standard.  It is this feature that is used for hybrid ODF-PDF 
documents: 
http://blogs.adobe.com/insidepdf/2010/11/pdf-file-attachments.html.  (You'll 
notice that making hybrid Microsoft Office - PDF documents is a feature of 
Adobe Acrobat products.)

The agreement for interoperability with ODF attachments in PDF documents and 
how they are handled automatically is up to the supporters of ODF-PDF hybrid 
documents.  There is nothing that Adobe needs to do.  Any ODF-specific protocol 
is a matter for the ODF-supporting office suites to work out.

If someone wanted to work up and publish an agreed profile for this use case, 
the OASIS ODF Interoperability and Conformance TC could be used for that 
purpose.  It would then be up to ODF Consumers that also produce and consume 
PDF to line up.

This is also something that could be made the subject of ODF Plugfest activity.

Hi Everyone,

I'm asking about the standardization of *hybrid pdf* format.

This is because I think it is a very useful thing, but I don't want to use it 
too much if it is a weak standard that is pretty near to be changed or 
abandoned.
Is Oasis-Open or ISO or other standard Organization well defining this format?

What do you think about?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Set Print Range quickly?

2012-01-11 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Yes, context menu is what appears when doing a right-click in Windows or 
GnuLinux (or BSD i think) or doing a Ctrl-click on a Mac.  

The menu that appears is often very different depending on what is most 
relevant to the precise position of the mouse arrow.  Hence the context of 
the position is important to it.  Most other menus are much more generic and 
stay the same regardless of where the cursor is.

Yes context menu is the menu, which you usually get with a right mouse 
click. On Windows you can use the Context menu key from your keyboard, 
next to the right Ctrl-key, as well, or you use the key combination 
Shift-F10.

RE: [libreoffice-users] What about the standard state of the hybrid pdf format?

2012-01-11 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I was saying the format itself is proprietary.  I was not talking about 
programs that view, read or write the format.  

MS produced a .docX specification which had Open in the title and got it 
awarded ISO status.  Their newer word-processors reads and writes a .docX 
format.  Therefore their word-processor uses an Open format, right?  No holes 
in that logic!?  lol.

The Adobe blog does say some very nice things about Pdf.  Who produces the Pdf 
spec?  Adobe.

I have a lot more confidence in Oasis than in the ISO committees and i 
appreciate the work Dennis does in that area.  

Thank you for giving me an opportunity to ridicule MS formats and their 
game-playing tricks once again!  Today  yday i have spent all my time fixing 
problems in or created by MS products while people continue to ignore much 
better products that just don't break or at least not as often and if/when they 
do are easier to fix.  It feels good to let off a little steam!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Add a Text file to Calc?

2012-01-11 Thread Jay Lozier

Hi,

How do you add a text file to a Calc sheet?

The objective I'm seeking is to be able to use Writer to create several
paragraphs of text and then paste them into Calc.

When doing so now, during the paste-in, all the text ends up in 1 cell.



One method you could try is to create a *.txt file in Writer. Then 
import the file into Calc using InsertSheet from File. In the dialog 
box under Separator Options check Other and clear all the rest of the 
boxes. This will insert the text with each line being in a separate cell 
in Column A of the sheet. You must import the text before entering any 
other data into the sheet.

 Are you sure you followed the steps I described carefully?  When you
 select A1 and A2 (before releasing the button), drag the mouse back to A1
 and then release the button.  Then A1 should be blue.  Then you 
 drag A1 to A2.

Ok, I got it. I find it very counter-intuitive (selecting two cells to move
one cell?), but it worked. Thank you.

 There!
 
 3.5 is the way forward. I'm running it and I'm enjoying the experience :)
 I just wish there's a better icon theme or is there a way to throw the UI 
 open to system's icon theme. I use faenza on GTK3 (fedora 16, Gnome3)?
 
 Hmm, the call-out leaders for comments didn't get reviewed. Sometimes 
 comments on a phrase overlap. It should be better to use highlights rather 
 than arrowheads for the 'comment' call-out(balloon). I use this feature a 
 lot :(
 
 I'm happy to 'miss' the conspicuous margin borders ... Just neat.
 
 Java 1.7 support? Thought the idea was to liberate LibreOffice of the Java 
 dependency in order to improve performance.  Great, my custom-developed 
 extension works as expected. I'm glad pyuno didn't get broken. Next I'll be 
 testing the speed of creating about 20sheets within a loop. 3.4 had speed 
 issues there.
 
 Until then ... Well done LibreOffice team!
 :)

 Hi :)
 It is well worth talking with the Design Mailing List about icon sets and 
 theming.  I think they have some neat tricks and good sets.  
 
URL please?

 I am not sure who deals with the contents of tool-tips or balloons.  I have a 
 horrible feeling it might the the over-worked and under-staffed Documentation 
 Team.  Documentation might not seem glamorous or sexy but it makes a big 
 difference.

I wasn't talking about tool-tips.  I was talking about the COMMENT
feature (CTRL+ALT+C). I have created a quick (sloppy) scenario here:
http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/7671/liboevolution.png

Those icons on the toolbars don't give me joy any more.  The markers
or arrowheads used by the comment leader (the dashed lines) confuse the
readers.  Its hard to tell which text owns the comment in that phrase.
Sometimes an entire paragraph may need a general comment (in addition to
small comments targeted at small phrases or sentences within the
paragraph).  LibO still doesn't differentiate those very well.

If you have the job of reading student's reports and making comments ...
you'll frown at libO.  Its just confusing and I've introduced LibO into
our repertoire of School software in our Institution

Oku, O

Yes: Alt+O, N, D.

Alternatively:
o Go to Tools | Customize... | Keyboard.
o Under Category, select Format.
o Under Function, select Define Print Area.
o Under Shortcut keys, select your preferred shortcut.
o Click Modify and OK.

I trust this helps.

Something else you could also try is using Paste Special.  In Writer,
write some text.  Then select the text you want to insert into Calc
and *copy* it (right click - copy, or Ctrl + c).  Then go to Calc and
*paste special* (right click - paste special... or Ctrl + Shift + v).
 I just tried the first of the listed options (LibreOffice 3.4 Text
Document) which seems to do the job, but you're welcome to experiment
with different options.

For the sake of completeness, let me add that you could also use the
Shift key instead of the Ctrl key.  So then it would look like this:
1. Click on the cell you want to move
2. Shift+click on the same cell (hold shift, click on the cell, release shift)
3. Click and drag the cell to where you want it
