Trouble with selecting text

[Loring Dales]

I’m a long-time Open Office user who just bought a new iMac desktop computer.  
When I work with an Open Office word document (newly created one or old one in 
my files), I cannot highlight (i.e., select) passage in that document by 
left-clicking/pressing on the mouse and at the same time moving the mouse over 
that passage I’m trying to select.  

How can perform this highlighting/ selection process now?

Thank you.  - Loring Dales

Rechtschreibprüfung OpenOffice Calculator

[Martin Oehl]

Hallo liebe Mitglieder,

die Spracheinstellungen scheinen bei mir nur für den Writer zu gelten.
Wenn ich beim Calculator die Rechtschreibprüfung durchführen möchte,
erscheint beim Anklicken der entsprechenden Funktion unter Textsprache
ein leeres Feld.
Ich würde mich freuen, wenn jemand eine Antwort dazu parat hat.

Viele Grüße

Martin Oehl

Microsoft recently introduced "Clipboard History" in Windows 11.

Can you please try to disable it and look if things get better?

See:

Apple took care of that and allows to run the Intel version of
OpenOffice even on Apple M1/2 processors.

Simply download and install it as usual:

Please see the Release Notes regarding "Gatekeeper" on macOS:

DElay in der Anwendung und ewiges Wiederherstellen

[Ralf]

Hi and Hallo,

for weeks now I have the problem that whenever I start OO, it begins 
with two files, the system wants to restore.One of them has been erased 
already for a long time - the other one is perfectly fine and saved.
So everytime I use OO, the procedure starts PLUS inside the application, 
there is a delay between klick and action.

I hoped that the update to .14 would solve the problem. But it did not.

I am using LibreOffice right now, although I was very fine with OO.
So I hope that you have an idea and a solution - otherwise I would have 
to erase OO on my computer. I did not find helping clues on the internet.


Yours
Ralf

I rarely print envelopes, but on my printer, I usually just print landscape and 
manually feed an envelope. I do use the mechanism to feed an envelope. The 
problem with that, however, is that some feed the envelope in the middle and 
some on the right or left side. So I expect this to take some experimentation. 
What I did, was to feed a regular sheet of paper and then I checked to see 
where it printed with respect to the envelope so that I could refine margins 
(and similar). So now I can print individual envelopes when I want to. I just 
pull up my "template" and off I go.Not much help perhaps, but it is how I 
solved it for my infrequent use.On Tuesday, March 07, 2023 17:39 EST, Shari
