[libreoffice-users] libreoffice user installation could not be completed

[silviogibe...@libero.it]

On a PC with Windows 7 Home 64 bit, I have installed LibreOffice. Then, I have 
disinstalled it. Then, I have tried to reinstall it, but I could not. The error 
message was that "libreoffice user installation could not be completed". I have 
tried to install different versions of LibreOffice, but the result was the 
same. What could I do? What is there that prevent the installation from being 
completed? Many thanks for your help!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: how to print in landscape?

[Philip Jackson]

It seems to me that Regina's reply was based on the assumption that
Larry was having a problem with Writer.  Unfortunately, he didn't make
clear until his second post that he was talking about Calc.

In Calc, there is a format button on the second line of the toolbars and
it does succesfully change the view to landscape in my LO 4.2.8.2.  The
change to landscape also shows up in the print preview and then prints
as landscape without further ado.

This in Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS with LO 4.2.8.2

I have no idea how it happened to jump in my "View". I guess I played
around (via menu "View"/toolbars/customise/Menus/Menu "View" -> [Add])
and added it out of curiosity :)

In the same way (playing around) I found the feature of customising
colours, like fields etc (as I mentioned above). An other very helpful
feature btw. that I use extensively is adding background colours to
styles (which I remove of course when the text is ready for print):
Navigator (F5)/ right-click style in question: modify / Area). Ok, my
text looks motley, but in this way I find quickly which styles haven't
been applied properly (by me *blush*).

[libreoffice-users] Calc: PDF export vs. print to a PDF printer

[Carlo Strata]

Hi Everyone,

at the moment, I have taken a look only on mailing list, but I have not 
seen nothing relating. I am speaking about the difference in Calc 
between pdf exporting a multi-sheet ods document (a spreadsheet 
document) and printing it in a pdf printer (software printer).


The file -> print dialog change in Calc with respect to Writer, Impress, 
Draw, ... and is able to choose among selected sheets, cells or all and 
then all pages or only some of them. When you pdf export there are not 
that useful capabilities...


Or am I loosing something?

What is the problem? Native pdf export my maintain some formatting or 
features of the source document (like URL, PDF Forms, ...) that you may 
loose also cutting a pdf.


What do you think about? Is there some extensions to do this and/or are 
we planning to integrate something like this in the Calc pdf export dialog?


Have All a sunny day,

Carlo

[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 5.1.1.3 Writer new bug?

[Carlo Strata]

Hi Everyone,

I get a strange behaviour with the new 5.1.1.3 LibreOffice Win_x64 on 
Microsoft Windows 10, x64, daily updated build 1511, ita gui.


I get it with this little sequence:
- copy this raw in a new Writer document:
  conoscenza dei processi -> semplificazione -> riduzione dei costi;
- move the cursor in front of the first "->" (like this "->|", if "|" is 
the cursor);

- press space key on the keyboard;
- you will get (I get):
  conoscenza dei processi -> semplificazione -> semplificazione -> 
riduzione dei costi;
  with the first two arrows correctly auto-corrected with the right 
arrow character (but with a duplicate string: twice " -> semplificazione");

- if you repeat the behaviour with the third fake arrow ("->") you will get:
  conoscenza dei processi -> semplificazione -> semplificazione -> 
semplificazione -> riduzione dei costi;
  with all four arrows correctly auto-corrected with the right arrow 
character (but with a triplicate string: three times " -> semplificazione").


Am I the only one?

Have a nice evening,

Carlo

[libreoffice-users] RE: LibreOffice 5.1.1.3 Writer new bug?

[V Stuart Foote]

LibreOffice 5.1.1 (aka 5.1.1.3 is in pre-release) posting soon. So, probably
not a typo.

Believe this is simply an Auto-correct issue in profile, but easy to
determine if it is from LO Source or a user profile.

Auto-correct values are localized so there could be an issue with the
replacement table, or possibly a word completion has been recorded.  Both
are checked from the Tools -> AutoCorrect -> AutoCorrect Options dialog (as
localized).

If correct,  the U+2129 right arrow character is linked, i.e. auto replaces
entry of "-->" ; but the replacement for that string can be edited from the
"Replace" tab.  Check what is recorded there and correct it if wrong.

Alternatively,  the "Word Completion" tab allows words frequently used to be
auto entered. Default limit of 8 characters, but that can be reduced and
user profile may have shorter completions recorded.  Check there if the "->
semplificazione" has somehow been recorded--and delete it.

Of course, probably the simplest way to reset to defaults is to clear user
profile.

RE: [libreoffice-users] question about "Binary URP bridge disposed during call" error

[Shawn Cao]

Hi Stephan,

I redo the batch testing and you are right: my program killed soffice.bin after 
waiting 2 minutes and can't open 
a file for printing through  "m_xDesktop->loadComponentFromURL()". And the 
function then throw a "Binary URP bridge disposed during call" exception.  (And 
no LibreOffice crash happen for my new printing program. )

This issue happened randomly and most of the time the same file can be opened 
correctly.  

Basically, the testing case is to start soffice.bin and print 10 files then 
close it. The testing case will be repeated thousands time. 
If I restart soffice.bin every time a printing job finished, 
"loadComponentFromURL()" always return quickly. 

I am wondering why "m_xDesktop->loadComponentFromURL()" sometimes get stuck and 
how to generate debugging information when it get stuck?
  
Best Regards,

Shawn

Hm, that's rather odd.

For one, this crash is during "clean" termination of the soffice.bin process, 
i.e., at a time when your external code should no longer communicate with the 
soffice.bin process anyway.  (Or is your external code designed in a way that 
it might call com.sun.star.frame.XDesktop.terminate while some printing 
activity is still in progress?)

For another, I see no way how
com::sun::star::ucb::UniversalContentBroker::create could throw an exception 
there during shutdown.  It should already have been called during 
initialization, from Desktop::Main -> Desktop::RegisterServices 
-> configureUcb, and if that had already failed with an exception, that
would have caused a call to FatalError, which immediately terminates the 
process via _exit.

Are you sure that that crash dump correlates to a "Binary URP bridge disposed 
during call" exception in your client, or could it be from a "harmless" crash 
of an soffice.bin instance after your client code had already disconnected (so 
might normally go rather unnoticed, except for leaving behind a crash dump)?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Database help please

Thank you to everyone who replied to my query, A01, A02 etc works, I am
very thankful for that. Now the problem to prevent duplication, I have
tried several ways but obviously what I am doing is incorrect as it doesn't
work.
Could someone please do a very small database to show how this problem can
be overcome.

Many thanks in anticipation.

RE: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 5.1.1.3 Writer new bug?

[David Gressett]

I get the same thing with 5.1.0.3 (was 5.1.1.3 a typo?)

I tried again, and did only the first space addition. I found that 
if I go to a new line  and enter any text, such as 

asdfgh

and then add a space and the two-piece arrow -> so that I get

asdfgh ->

when I press space after adding the arrow, I again get the extra semplificazione

[libreoffice-users] Re: Viewing Manual Break Locations

[CVAlkan]

An interesting approach to checking for consistent style usage ...

I check these by clicking on the text and looking at the style listed in the
sidebar, but your way certainly would be useful if the difference between
various styles is subtle (a one or two point size variation for instance).
And, of course, I really only do that when I *suspect* something might be
amiss, so it likely isn't very comprehensive.

I might give your idea a try just to see how it works in practice, so thanks
for sharing.
