I do not know how to correct this, but to narrow the search: it works
as expected in LO 6.1.2.1 in Windows 10.

Hi

I recently upgraded to LO 6.1.2.1 and Ubuntu 18.10 and have a problem.

When designing impress screens, I cannot change the background
colour. Everything remains stubbornly white.

I right click on the page, select "Properties" then Background,
Colour. But instead of filling the screen it leaves it white.
Selecting other options on that dialog, such as Bitmap or Hatch still
results in plain white.

How can I change this?

Thanks

Re: [libreoffice-users] Double sided printing-again

Hello.

I've looked but haven't been able to find the right combination of 
commands to

enable double sided printing and keep the configuration.

Has there been any movement in the repair of this feature or are we still
stuck with converting our documents to another format (.pdf) for proper
handling?

Thanks.

Tony, I have two brother laser printers HL2030 and HL3150CDW and have no 
problems printing double sided in both windows (win 7) and Linux 
(manjaro). I find its just a question of setting the print up in 
printer properties for either manual (HL2030) or automatic (HL3150CDW) 
printing. In Linux I set up my printer defaults in CUPS. I never have to 
convert documents to pdf just to print them. You don't tell us what 
operating system you are using, what printer or what version of 
Libreoffice you have. Perhaps if you came back to us with a bit more 
information someone here would be able to give you more specific advice.

Re: [libreoffice-users] new version of LO gives gibberish for excel file.

Hi
I just downloaded an excel file from
http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxfacts/displayafact.cfm?Docid=205
The file is the excel version of Historical Source of Revenue as Share 
of GDP.
The newest, recommended version of LO opens the file as gibberish: 
LibreOffice Version 3.6.5.2 (Build ID: 5b93205)


My system runs Windows 7, 64 bit, AMD quad core, 4 GB RAM.

Can anyone explain or help me fix this?

A workaround is to fetch MS' Excel Viewer, then copy from that to a 
table in Writer for my document, but I would prefer to use LO for as 
nearly everything as possible.


Warmest Regards
David Teague

Has anyone else experience the same issue with the .deb install?

No other linux .deb user has experienced the same? The bug reports
indicate others have (with other language dictionaries as well), so I
find it odd that nobody else on this list has.


I have had this or a similar problem but with the 32 bit version of LibO 
rather than the 64 bit.


I am running Xubuntu 12.04 and had LibO 3.6.0 installed. I installed 
3.6.1.2 using sudo dpkg -i  *.deb. Everything seemed ok. Then when 
Xubuntu reported some (system) updates I installed them and noticed an 
error message with respect to the LibO dictionaries, but these were the 
3.5.4 versions! Following this the dictionaries in LibO ceased to work.


To resolve the problem I removed all instances of LibO using synaptic 
(it took me 3 attempts) and re-installed 3.6.1.2.  So far things seem to 
be ok.
