 Guten Morgen,
 ich habe ein Problem beim Aufrufen von Dateien im Open Office.
 Deshalb wollte ich durch reparieren den Fehler beheben.
 Jetzt erscheint aber der Hinweis Schwerwiegender Fehler bei der
 Installation. 

Sonst noch mehr Text bei der Fehlermeldung? 

Ich vermute das die Installationsdateien fehlen, aber stimmt das? Es sollte auf 
dem Desktop (des Administrators) einen Ordner mit den OO-Installationsdateien 
(Name z.B. OpenOffice 4.0.1 (de) Installation Files) geben, aber ist das der 
Fall? 

 Soll ich das Programm deinstallieren und dann neu
 laden? 

Kann nicht schaden.

 Wie kann ich meine Dateien wieder öffnen, um sie zu bearbeiten? 

Naja, indem man das Programm wieder zu Laufen bringt.

Alternativ auch mit einer portablen Version von OO,
Entweder selbst erstellt gemäß:

Your OpenOffice is in change tracking mode. To switch it off, goto menu

How can I load all formats and settings to a couple of existing ott files

Hi

I have a couple of templates (.ott Files)  existing for different types of 
reports and protocols.

Now the base formatting rules in the company changed and we have to reformat 
all these templates. (Font, Size Indent

There is usually the way to open each template file and use the load styles 
function to load the changed formats from the Master Document
But it's an boring task for more than 50 templates

Are there any way / tool existing to do this automatically ?

symbol shortcut?

2014-04-16 Thread Tracey Belle
Hi there.  I've been hoping OpenOffice adds the feature of creating 
keystroke shortcuts for special characters to be inserted, rather than 
using the menu to insert special characters.  On my old versions of 
Office, I could create a keystroke combination to associate with a 
particular symbol, because I used the symbol so much.  I can't access 
the functionality on the current version of Office that I have, but I 
downloaded OpenOffice specifically to have access to this feature, 
because I assumed it was part of the program.  It would be a really 
useful feature!


Thanks

the 'template changer' extention may be of use. it seems from the description 
that you will be able to 'assign' the new master template to the folder 
containing the old templates.

however, be careful to read about inconsistencies with localisation and support 
of 4.0+ openoffice versions.

there are at least three options:

(1) assign an autocorrect combination to your special character, such as _E for euro sign. however, you will have 
to precede and succeed it with whitespace characters, which is not always convenient: e. g., when you want to 
insert an 'a umlaut' instead of 'a' to the german word 'bar' (bear) by using :a as a shortcut, you have to type 
'bspace:aspacebackspaceleft arrowbackspaceright arrowr', which is 
quite long.

(2) record a macro (tools - macros - record macro, then insert a character through the 
dialogue, stop recording and save the macro) and assign a shortcut to it (tools - 
customise - keyboard, choose a key combination and find your macro in the list of 
categories under 'openoffice.org macros - user').

(3) under windows some alt+(a number from the numpad) shortcuts are provided by 
the system, e. g. alt+123 is a '{' or alt+1 is a smiley face (see on the net). 
under linuxes localisation options a still more extensive, with some four or so 
symbols assignable to each key through different combinations of alt, shift, 
ctrl, scroll lock etc.

I agree with Tracey.  There are times where you need to use a special symbol 
frequently and it would be a great advantage to have a keyboard shortcut.

How to switch on Numbering(Outline) automatically for a Headings(1-4)

you may do it in one step for all 10 heading levels (i. e. 1-10 rather than 
1-4), though it seems not quite what you are looking for.

For all 10 headings would even be fine..
But how to do ?
The numbering part is greyed out at every Heading and Numbering Outline is 
shown as numbering style.
I can modify the numbering outline style (Tools-Numbering Outline) but it has 
no effect.

it actually does. just select '1, 2, 3' from the 'numbering' box under 'tools -

The Insert Picture from File is just one click away if you have selected

Personally I like the Insert Special Characters in the Sidebar like we 
have the Text Properties.
Even better to have the ability to drag Toolbars into the Sidebar making 
the Sidebar customizable to your own needs.

Yes, but in addition a lot more  keyboard shortcuts would be very welcome.  For

I can't speak for the Mac, but Alt+I, U, F gets there for me.  Does 
this not work (perhaps using Option) on a Mac?  If you press Option, 
don't the relevant letters appear underlined in the menus?


In any case, you can set your own keyboard shortcut.
o Go to Tools | Customize... | Keyboard (or wherever that is on a Mac).
o At the top right, select OpenOffice or Writer (or whatever).
o Under Functions | Category, select Insert.
o Under Function, select From File.
o Under Shortcut keys, choose your preferred shortcut.
o Click Modify and OK.

I trust this helps.

NO - and that's the issue - it did work that way in OS2 (and probably win

In Linux, you can add a Compose key--right-ALT--is good, or right 
WINDOWS if your keyboard has winkeys. In Windows, there are a number of
programs that do the same thing. With the Compose key, you can get all 
the diacritics for western European languages, the various
currency symbols €, ¢ ¥ £  á é ç ä ö ü ß and some fractions like ½ ⅓ ⅞ 
and a batch of other things. The Compose key operates by
first striking Compose key, then two other keys that will make the 
character. Most of the combinations are obvious. For Windows,
Google AllChars, WinCompose, FreeCompose, and others.  I think this is 
the simplest way to get almost any character you might need.

There are more thorough and complicated ways, but look at this first.
