[libreoffice-users] constant crashes
Good afternoon I do have an ordinary ODF Writer file, about 14 MB in sizebecause of about 60 monochrome pictures (writing a book). This file is usually open in print preview mode. When I try to switch to web layout, so that I can see more text without all those funky margins and spaces betweeen pages, LibreOffice (3.6.5.2) ALWAYS crashes due to an unexpected error as it calls it. Is there anything I can do about this VERY annoying behavior? Thank you.

Re: [libreoffice-users] constant crashes
Hi :) Also try Tools - Options - Memory and increase the various sizes. I have it set at something like 20Mb/object and above the Use for LibreOffice set a LOT higher than i expect the final documents to be. Around 50Mb might be a good idea. However, crashes are usually a result of Java behaving badly. You can probably switch Java off completely or just switch it off for LIbreOffice Tools - Options - Advanced The top tick-box lets you switch it off. The next most common cause is some problem in your User Profile so you might want to temporarily get back to factory defaults by renaming your User Profile https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile One person found that upgrading to a more recent version of LibreOffice solved a crashing problem There is another rare and intermittent bug to do with images. It's been around since OOo 2.(something) but is very rare and difficult to pin-down because it is not easy to reproduce conditions reliably. Best work-arounds are 1. Switch off the auto-back-up! But then you have to keep making sure you do save regularly and fairly frequently, perhaps incrementing versions occasionally to ensure you can easily go back to a previous state. 2. to keep a copy of all the images in a sub-folder in the same folder as the document, or elsewhere that is easy to get to so that if images do vanish from the document then it's easy to replace them 3. Work on your document locally and then upload back to the network or Cloud or usb-stick or where-ever you keep it.

I think i would want to include people that i don't personally get on with particularly well or even argue against a lot because we have all made LibreOffice what it is today and that result is superb. Other mailing lists, such as the devs and docs team have lists of their contributors, or their top contributors but we don't have anything like it yet. One reason i noticed this over-sight was the QA people wrote to me to ask how to get more people interested in their competition and i really didn't have a good answer. I don't think i have the type of influence they were looking for. Quite the opposite in fact. However, they made just a couple more posts to this list and that seems to have generated fantastic results. So, good work to all!!

This question makes me wonder, just why there are so many LO versions and frequent new releases. I can't keep up, and I find myself torn about upgrading. I want the latest and greatest, but I've had problems with newer versions resurrecting old bugs. I'm sure there's an overriding philosophy that has been adopted, but I wonder if we might be better served with fewer new releases. Apache seems to have taken quite the opposite approach with no new releases of AOO since its 3.4.1. Perhaps something somewhere between the two extremes might be nice.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Spelling controle
Tom, We're getting off topic, but about the languages : Belgium has 3 languages : a small part speaking German, a big part speaks French and the rest speaks Dutch. Many Flemish people speak Dutch (Flemish, but it's similar), French and English. Some speak other languages as well, like German and many others, dependent of your personal interests. Jan is coming from the Netherlands, where there is only 1 official language. They tend to learn rather English and German, and sometimes a bit French, but just like everywhere : it all depends to your personal interest.

Right now they are working on one to attract developers but they have already done ones for various specific event and for different types of people. Unlike every other similar thing created by any other successful company they try to cram in as much text as possible and carefully minimise any design elements or attractive images. However, they are beginning to run out of room so hopefully the QR Code might help them.

Hi :) That is weird. It might still be a User Profile issue on all the machines. Most likely is a particular Extension/Add-on that you have on all machines. Do you have anything like that?

Re: [libreoffice-users] constant crashes
When this odd mailist behavior was instituted a while back, many people complained and it was decided by the instituter that there was to be a poll about it and if most people in the poll complained, they would return to the standard behavior. What ever happened to that? All I see are complaints about this behavior. I don't remember anyone saying they loved it. Like the other poster, I find it mildly annoying - especially after sending, I realize I used the wrong method and have to do it all over again. That's not very productive.

Re: [libreoffice-users] constant crashes
Hi :) We are going off-topic. Normally i quite enjoy that but in this case the o.p's problem is not yet solved. Also i don't want to be an apologist for an awkward set-up that i don't like either. I've been told that a lot of people did pester the-powers-that-be to make the lists as they are and that the poll we took didn't get close to the same numbers of people requesting the more sensible method we used to have or some other more sensible method. The timing was really ironic for me. Regards from Tom :) From: Girvin R.

There is is 'file-save as template' and 'file-templatemenu'. There is also no 'file-templates-organize, or any organize under either of the 2 menu selections that I found. I was able to execute the beginning steps, but I was unable to save as default template. It seems that you are using a different os or versions than I am. imltho (less than), this is a bug, as a common user interface is crucial to user, newbies (of which I am not one) and developers. I'll play arround some more. I think you've got me on the right track. When I went to save the file under 'save a template', there was already a 'default' file there. John Hi. I think as Regina points out, your version and mine differ, but you seem to be on the right track.

If you will follow my guide, the new sheet will have the new font, because it is changed in style. Aargh! Sorry: I read your solution too quickly; indeed, I misread it. Apologies - and thanks for the correction.

This is usually not an issue, as I often start a new sheet from an existing sheet. But if I start from the first menu, I get a font called 'arial' (sounds like a mermaid or m$). Since I am using an oss program, i would prefer to use an oss font, e.g. freesans. per help, I an supposed to open a Write sheet and set the font in the 'tools' section. This works for write, not for calc. The answers that you have been given - to create a new default template in the required font - are good, of course. But you may like to check what happens if you start a new document using this template and then create new sheets within the document. I fear you may find that the font defaults back to Arial. Yes I remember. The change to the font only sticks to the first sheet with my explanation. You need to follow Regina's procedure and it works ok. Indeed. Sorry.

I know, because I'm one.
