 Yes. (5.0.0.5/mint)

Nope...

 If you R-click the table *in the navigator* (use F5) there's a 
 Table|Unprotect option. It only appears though if the table does have a 
 protected cell. At least here and I have just checked it.

That is what I did, and you are correct that the choice is there.

But my point was that it did not unprotect the cell. It allowed me to
unprotect the entire Table, but the cell was still protected.

So, it doesn't 'work' as a workaround.

Also, Cor just confirmed that they intentionally (WHY???) removed the
context menu, but that there is a bug in that there should be an option
to unprotect the cell from the Table Menu.

Now to go open a bug/feature request to bring back the most useful
context menu choice for this...

 There's a main menu option Table|Protect Cells, but apparently no inverse.
 
 However, it seems you can R-click on the table in the navigator and 
 unprotect the entire table. Clumsy.

Clumsy is an understatement - and on top of that it doesn't even work.

Unprotect is not an option, only Protect, so I tried Protecting the
entire Table, then Unprotecting it, but the individual protected cell(s)
remain protected...

So to recap:
pick a cell and use main menu Table | Protect Cells
then to do a gross undo,
F5 to show the Navigator if necessary, R-click on the table's name and 
select Table | Unprotect.


As I said, clumsy.

[libreoffice-users] Font menu display not working correctly

2015-08-27 Thread Tim---Kracked_P_P---webmaster


I am running 5.0.0.1 on a Windows 10 Pro [64-bit] laptop.

When I page down through the different fonts [in the tool-bar option] 
many of the fonts do not show what they look like, including some MS 
installed ones.


This was not a problem with 4.4.4, after I upgraded to Win10.

The kicker is sometimes one part of the font list is not displaying 
correctly, while the next time I use LO it does. Other parts/fonts seem 
not to display their style every time I open LO and look for a font to 
use.  Once all the fonts did not display anything other than their names.


So, has anyone seen this issue with 5.0.0.1 on Windows [10] ?

I have not have 5.0.0.1 it on any of my various Linux systems [every 
system a different version of Linux], yet, so I do not know if it does 
this on Linux [64-bit]

[libreoffice-users] problem installing libreoffice 5.0.0 and 5.0.1 in a windows 7 virtual machine

2015-08-27 Thread yahoo-pier_andreit
on my windows 7 virtual machine ( virtualbox version 4.3.20) on linux 
host (opensuse 13.2) I tried to install libreoffice 5.0.0 and 5.0.1 but 
met some problem, the installation stop for insufficent space, but, of 
course, I have more than 30Gb free.

I suppose it could be related to dinamic disc space in virtualbox.

manythanks, ciao  :-) , pier

I downloaded this:
LibreOffice_5.0.1_Win_x86 Windows Installer (.msi)
and also 5.0.0 give the same problem

I copied a table from calc to write.  Protected the calculated data of 
two columns and unprotected with the procedure sugested by Mike Scott.


I repeated the protection, protecting first the last two columns and
later, the whole table. After that, I desprotected all the cells,
including the cells in the first two columns, following the
procedure of Mike Scott.

Two observations:

- I use LO version 5.0.0.5 on Windows 7 starter (with SP1).
- I was working in high contrast mode
  (black background - white letters). When I selected the whole table
  only the unprotected cells where selected. Even more, if I wanted
  to select cells from the last two columns, was not possible.
  I supossed, because where protected.
