[libreoffice-users] can not copy paste from web in libre office writer as the images do not load
Dear Sir, I am unable to copy and paste the web pages in libre writer. i am trying to copy a web site information into libre office and the images do not load , in place of images I only see the links to images and when I try to break links the images still do not load. Images only load when I connect to Internet, but I want to save files so that I can use them while I am off-line. Kindly provide me solution for the same. I have tried it on libre office 4.3 on windows xp, and 7 also on ubuntu 12.10 in libre 3.6.2.2.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Multiple Forms In HTML
I thought I had replied to this, but I don’t see any record of a reply from me. I’m quite visual, but operate in different "modes." When I’m writing or doing layout design, I *have* to have things simple and intuitive and for layout, I need to see things as I move them around. But once I get into "programming mode," I can deal with HTML directly and have no problem with a more complex text editor or even vi or emacs - but there’s no way I could use one of those while writing! I’ve looked at Bluefish, but for my initial work, I need a good WYSIWYG setup. For now, and for the foreseeable future, I’ve decided I’ll use LibreOffice for HTML for the initial version - until I get it looking like I want it. Then I’ll keep two copies of each page I’m working with. On one I’ll use LibreOffice and do the visual editing. Then I open both versions in a text editor as I copy and paste and manually edit the HTML code for the other "live" version with all the form data and so on included. Overall, yes as Alex says, LibreOffice, as an HTML editor, is crippled. At some point I have a question on another issue I want to post relating to the HTML editor and how converting to HTML can seriously mung the whole layout of an ODT document. (But that’s a whole separate issue.) Unfortunately, Dreamweaver has the market and I don’t want to spend a ton (or, as it is now, a monthly subscription) for it and I can’t find a good HTML editor for OS X for a lower price. So thanks for the thoughts and comments, everyone. For now I’ll just use my "split" approach and do the visual, then keep the pages separate so I can keep my forms and such intact.

Being familiar with MS Word the method would not be what is expected. Four page styles need to be used for the scenario as you've describe. page 1: a "front cover" page style page 2: a blank page style page 3: an "ODD pages" style page 4: an "EVEN pages" style I believe, based on the description of front cover and page 2 the same could be accomplished with only three page styles. page 1 & 2: the default page style (this includes headers and footers but if they aren't used their presence shouldn't matter) page 3: an "ODD pages" style page 4: an "EVEN pages" style Writer has several included page styles that should support this requirement. They are "Default Style", "Left Page", and "Right Page". Create the cover. It will be using the Default Style page style. With the cursor at the last element on the cover page (use the keystroke Ctrl+End to be sure you're at the last part of the cover page)... Select from the menu "Insert | Manual Break...", Select the "Page break" option and for Style select "Default". Click the OK button. The cursor should now be on the 2nd page. Press enter once (I don't know why this is needed but it is the only way I could make it work). Insert another page break via the menu. This time set the Style to "Right Page". The cursor will be at the top of the 3rd page. The third page of the document will have the "Right Page" format. As content is entered and it fills this page and goes onto the next the next page will automatically have the "Left Page" format applied.

Re: [libreoffice-users] calc: Find has never worked for me
Hi :)
Ahh, so if it's on Linux then maybe the Find box has moved onto a different
workspace?
Another option might be to reset the screen resolution to make everything
ridiculously tiny?
Is it possible to move windows/consoles by grabbing them anywhere but with
the Alt key pressed down? That might avoid the need to find a
grab-handle.
Is it possible that the Find box is somehow underneath the Calc window??
That would be a bit crazy.
Errr, that's all i can think of!

The basic "Find" is just a toolbar (usually at the bottom of the screen,
but you can move it as with any other toolbar). It has a text box to
enter the text to search for and a button to open the Find & Replace
dialog. If the toolbar is already there, you may not notice much change

OK, so those sound OK.
I have not remapped any keys, as I rarely use the shortcut keys, as I
don't want to loose my memory for the WordStar keys used in Wordstar and
Borland Pascal.
If you still can't find the toolbar, it may be worth resetting your
LibreOffice user profile. This will clear any user settings (hopefully
including whatever has happened to the Find toolbar), as well as any
added dictionary words, custom colours, etc. so it's a good idea to back
up your existing profile first. See
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ("Resolving corruption
in the user profile" section) for instructions.
If that fixes the problem, the easiest is probably to keep that new
profile and redo or copy any settings you need from the old profile. It
may be possible to compare the two, work out what made the difference to
Find, and reset just that part of the old profile, but that's more
tricky (if you try it, make a copy of the old profile first, so at worst
you can always get back to the current situation).
If resetting the user profile doesn't help, I'm afraid I'm out of ideas,
but post back here and someone else may be able to suggest something.
Mark.

Re: [libreoffice-users] set different header/footer for even/odd pages
Hi :) Thanks! :)) In LibreOffice "styles" become really useful. They use a very different system from the styles in MS Office which i always found created tons of problems and never solved anything. I found that just a few minutes of reading up about them saved me hours of work collating articles from different sources and fitting them neatly into my company's (well, my bosses company) newsletter. What used to take the previous chap a couple of weeks with MS Office (and took me about the same) now takes a couple of days at most and i can do other things at the same time too. I've got a feeling that if i used LibreOffice for the content and then moved it into Scribus for the weird bits of the layout then it'd probably take just 1 afternoon. The better implementation of styles in LibreOffice is partly why documents produced by LibreOffice tend to look so much better than ones produced in MS Office. Numbered lists don't have extra numbers or missing ones. Bulleted lists keep the same-sized bullets. Both stay lined-up under each other. Much less struggling against sudden weird changes in formatting.

Re: [libreoffice-users] set different header/footer for even/odd pages
Hi :) For the first page the Faq gave me this link https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Faq/Writer/003 Hopefully when doing that you'll stumble onto how to do odd and even pages. In my really brief skim through the Faq for Writer nothing leapt out at me but i'm fairly sure it's not tough once you've started looking into "Styles and Templates" The main Faq is at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Faq Full documentation is at; https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications See the "Getting Started Guide", pretty much any version will do for this but that link often lets you get the most version even before publication. The GS guide is fully published but if you scroll down you see others that are "works in progress". It's the chapter 3 in the GS guide that might help the most.

Re: [libreoffice-users] autofill in calc
Thanks Brian and Tom for your answers. I often use calc as a simplified database, where Base would be an overkill, and there I would often want several successive cells (vertically, corresponding to several records) to have the same value. Another problem is that it also works on strings which end in a number, so if I have "string001" and use autofill, I get "string002, string003" etc. I guess sometimes this can be useful and sometimes not. Your tip for holding down control should help there, too. And I still think it's inconsistent - the 'wrong way round!' I'll check out edit>fill sometime, it sounds interesting.

Two points here: o It is generally bad practice to repeat the same value a number of times: it can be a recipe for mistakes. If you need the same value in multiple rows, it should appear in any necessary formula either as a constant or a reference to single cell elsewhere. Having it in a separate cell also makes it easier to modify, if that becomes necessary. o If you really do want to autofill cells without increment, you can do so by holding down Ctrl whilst dragging the fill handle. In addition, you can do cleverer things by first selecting the result range and then using Edit | Fill > | Series... . I trust this helps.

They try to hide useful information like that. On Xp, Vista, Win7 i think you can find out by hovering the mouse arrow over the file and a tool-tips kinda yellow-box appears with tons of information in it. It might be tricky to figure out which bit is the 3-4 letter file-ending/extension. So another way is to look at the window that shows the files&folders (we call it a file-browser) and click on View - Detail Now one of the columns after the file-names gives a brief indication of what the "file type" is. It might well be possible to 'simply' change that file-ending/extension in order to get the installer to work. However it is probably a lot easier to just use a standards-compliant web-browser such as Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari or anything else other than "Internet Explorer" (perhaps on a different machine?) These links might be better but they probably need you to be using a ; Windows version, English (Uk), well English (GB) http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-still/?type=win-x86&version=4.2.6⟨=en-GB Windows version, English (US), http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-still/?type=win-x86&version=4.2.6⟨=en-US I'm not sure why MS seems averse to properly implementing internationally agreed standards, such as ISO standards, even when they have been heavily involved in drawing up some of those standards in the first place! It seems to lock people into buying into the MS products(sometimes called a "vendor lock-in"). Another neat trick is that they seem unable to implement the same non-standards spec in any 2 versions of the same thing so people have to keep buying newer and newer versions of the same thing in order to be compatible with each other.

Hi, I would like to set different headers and footers according to page types. for example: page 1: should have no footer or header as it's a front cover page 2 is blank so no footer or header page 3: since this page, all ODD pages should have a particular header and footer (not the same as EVEN pages) page 4: since this page, all EVEN pages should have a particular header and footer (not the same as ODD pages) In fact, i'm looking for something like in MS Office i used before however i don't know if it's possible in LibreOffice 4.3.1. Any help would be great. thx.
