Re: [libreoffice-users] Default Superscript and Subscript size

2013-06-06 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I think initially posting a bug-report is fairly intuitive.  This guide
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport
helps.  It does ask for a lot more detail than you might be able to give in 
your initial report but you can always add that detail later in further posts 
to the thread of the report.  It's much the same as writing an email to this 
list tbh.
Regards from 
Tom :)

Hi all,

Late reply, been finishing off something - but I can get back to 
thinking about superscripts again! Yes Virgil, I think we've got a 
similar problem... I can change the size of individual cases, but there 
is no way I have found that I can just set the new size once, and then 
all others follow suit from then on. I have tried to fill in all of my 
details in the way that was mentioned earlier, but to no avail. 
Therefore I will submit it as a bug. I've never done that before - I'm 
guessing it's pretty intuitive... am I right?

I really wish I had the skills to fix this myself, after all, that's one 
of the benefits of having access to the source code isn't it! One day 
maybe...

 I've found that I can change the size of superscripts by changing 
 their attribute in the Superscript character style.

 The problem I've found (which may be the same as y'all) is that 
 selecting the superscript toolbar button doesn't apply my newly 
 changed superscript size. The program says that it's applying the 
 superscript character style, but it's not applying my customized size 
 attribute.

 So, instead of applying superscripts through the toolbar button, I 
 apply them by selecting the character style. I get what I want, but 
 it's not a very intuitive way of getting there.

 Tom, and the others. . . .

 I do not find in the Tools menu options any place that defines the
 subscript and superscript sizes.  I know where to change the size from
 the 58% to 50% or other size, but not where that default size is stored
 and can be save for the next time.

 I believe [but never done this] you could set the size and save it
 someway as the default document.  If that works, it may allow you to
 set the character size of the scripts to whatever works for your
 needs.  Or you could save a page, with the size change[s], as a template
 and us it that way.  But I never changed the default document or made
 template that actually show up when I save as template and then try to
 open a new document from the templates.  The paths shown in Tools 
 Options  LibreOffice  Paths shows the save as template file
 locations in the hidden dot config folder system, which LO does not
 show the proper config template folder in the Open  Template options.

 Maybe you can create another path for your saved templates, but right
 now, it does not work.  I think it is a bug in the 4.0.x system though.

 So has someone made the bug report?

 Any good and easy work around?

 Saving a document as a .ott file and placing it into a personal or
 business template folder withing you standard My Documents type of
 folder for Windows, or  in Linux a
 /home/user/Documents/LibreOffice/business/templates/ type of folder.

 It would be nice to be able to make the change to the superscript size
 and then it will reflect that change when you do another manual or
 automatic script set of characters.  like - 1^st , or 2^nd , H_2 O
 [the st and the nd should shown as superscripted and the 2 in H2O
 should be subscripted]

Hi all,

Actually none of these things are happening Tom. The only way that
I can get what I want is by selecting every instance individually
which is just impractical.

Steve, I can do exactly the same as well but once the changes are
selected there is no difference at all when I start typing. I
select my desired size and click Apply, then when I reopen the
document... the changes are still there. However, when I press
Ctrl-Shift-P to get superscript (or Ctrl-Shift-B for subscript)
the size is back to 58%. As I said before, I can change it after I
have typed it by selecting it and then going to Format -
Character and changing it to 70%. I just cannot find a way so that
whenever I toggle super/sub-script on... I get the desired size.
I've followed the directions in the writer guide, and this seems
to me to be intuitively what should be done... but no effect takes
place. That's why I thought it could be a bug.

 I have put a fair bit of description of the issue there, but
let me know if I can give any more information. I have tried to
save the changes as a template and then save it and make it
default, but it didn't change anything unfortunately. I think the
main problem is that the Automatic box gets checked again as soon
as I close the window. It's not a problem that arises when
starting a new document but as soon as I try to make the changes.

 I know that this is a small issue, but it would be great to
solve it as the size of 58% just looks ridiculous :-\

 To have the settings (changes) you make stay for a new
document you may need to make these changes to the default style

 This is the first thing I do as I do not like the default font
and margins.

2013-06-02 Thread Girvin R. Herr
Is this the same bug that prevents things from working when the Tools 
- Options - LibreOffice - User Data section is not filled in? 
As a retired Electronic/Software engineer, I think that bug is silly and 
sounds deliberate - especially since it has been known and not fixed for 
a long time.  But that may just be my paranoia showing.

Tools - Options - LibreOffice - User Data

 Dear all,

 Just wondering if someone could help me with this. I have posted a 
 question in the openoffice forums, but I wasn't able to get any 
 help, and someone advised me to maybe report a bug.

 Basically, I am trying to change the default size of the superscript 
 and subscript to make them larger than 58% which is the default. I 
 have tried to change them by modifying the setting under styles and 
 formatting 'Position' tab. I change the size and uncheck the 
 'Automatic' box for both superscript and subscript, but as soon as I 
 close the window, the changes do not take effect and then when I 
 reopen the Position tab, the Automatic boxes are checked again.

 Of note, I can change the size if I highlight the relevant section 
 and then change it via the Format - Character setting, however, I 
 do not want to have to do this every time. I am using LibreOffice 
 version 4.0.3.3 in Ubuntu 12.04.

 Many thanks,

 Tim

 Dear all,
 
 Thank you very much for your replies. Here is the link to my post in the 
 forum: http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7t=61594
 
 I have put a fair bit of description of the issue there, but let me know if 
 I can give any more information. I have tried to save the changes as a 
 template and then save it and make it default, but it didn't change 
 anything unfortunately. I think the main problem is that the Automatic box 
 gets checked again as soon as I close the window. It's not a problem that 
 arises when starting a new document but as soon as I try to make the 
 changes.
 
 I know that this is a small issue, but it would be great to solve it as the 
 size of 58% just looks ridiculous :-\

 This is the first thing I do as I do not like the default font and margins.

Of note, I can change the size if I highlight the relevant section and 
then change it via the Format - Character setting, however, I do not 
want to have to do this every time. I am using LibreOffice version 
4.0.3.3 in Ubuntu 12.04.


Many thanks,

Tim
