[libreoffice-users] Adding Features
In the older versions I had, there were two search and replace functions. One was the simple magnifying glass and the other was a pair of binoculars. This second was my favorite and I want to find out if it is possible to get it back. So, how can I find it and add it to 6.1+? -- Sent from: http://document-foundation-mail-archive.969070.n3.nabble.com/Users-f1639498.html -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

Re: [libreoffice-users] Footnote formatting
Eddie, Go up to "Tools", "Footnotes and Endnotes" and you can control the spacing after the Footnote Character from there. Also, as far as styles are concerned, the number in the footnote itself is the "Footnote Character" and can be formatted by the character style of that name. I'd love to read that paper when you're done. Sounds fascinating.

[libreoffice-users] Footnote formatting
I have imported a long document into Writer (from LaTeX via .doc), and as you can imagine I need to rebuild most of the styles from the ground up. The document contains some 300 footnotes. Thankfully, most of them did convert properly, but I'm left with a persistent formatting problem. In the footnotes themselves, there is no space between the number and the text, e.g. 2Tillyard, p. 37 3Ibid. 4Ibid, p. 39 I've learned that the footnote anchor is the indicator in the text: At least Tillyard has that to say about it.2 I made the Footnote Anchor character style bright red, which did turn the indicator bright red but didn't affect its "mirror" number preceding the footnote text. The number preceding the footnote text appears not to be editable or selectable. Does anybody know if I can associate a style with the number, and if so, what is the style called? And if so, can I have the style put a space after the number? I hope this is clear. If not, maybe the document has gotten to me: it's a study of _Paradise Regained_, a narrative poem by John Milton, the 17th-century poet and theologian who had some clarity problems of his own.

MY bad Alex indeed i was going to use the hsqldb or mariadb in time.I am using debian strech as OS. on a core2 2.3 GHz. Let say beans barcode 234 = Item-ID 2 Going in box-ID 1 ,then the next item-ID 2 in box-ID 1 ETC. so you get a box-ID(x) = box-id(x) +1 but the braindrain i get is How to get the selected box-ID into the formula to add one item .And in a next formular to substract. It start simpel and then it look like i want the world to inventory.

Le 23/08/2018 à 14:01, lunixbox a écrit : Hi, I am assuming that you're not using dbase as your database engine, and that you just abbreviated database to dbase in the title of your message. The dBase format supported by LibreOffice is rather limited in terms of functionality, so I would hope that you are using another db engine instead, such as the actual "per default" hsqldb engine included with LO. > Looking for advice, using the scanned bar code give the product, then i > want to use Box-ID to add a THT.Date.

So just > item,s IN and OUT I'm not really sure I understand how you want a BoxID, which I presume is a barcode, and therefore probably a text string, to be added to a date string held in the THT.Date field, and arrive at a result of +1 or -1. Again, if I have understood correctly, you want a result of a calculation to be displayed in a form control that can be expressed as either +1 or -1. You could in that case just as equally choose 0 or 1, and then use a boolean or binary field (generally, these are TINYINT(1) or CHAR(1) fields, to hold the result. However, you still need to determine when the result of your addition should be 0/1 or +1/-1 - this can only be achieved by calculation. This other calculation could be achieved: - by macro; - by using a constraint (if the db engine supports that kind of constraint); - by using a trigger (if the db engine supports that kind of trigger).
