Re: Open office too many icons
Hello Joseph P. Carlin, My OpenOffice installation has 8 Icons Installed. Base, Calc, Writer, Impress, Draw, Math, Printer setup and a generic one The first 6 start directly the application you want to use. the 7th Icon regulates Printer setup and the last one starts an application where I can select what I want to do. Please note that all applications are different with a different purpose. I have no Idea what your 9th Icon is, maybe Uninstall? Maybe you could add what do you expect, when Installing the OpenOffice Productivity suite.

Re: Icons
Randy, It sounds as though you’ve downloaded from a site that is not the official site. You should go back on your timeline before you downloaded this bundle of software. Then go to: https://www.openoffice.org/download/index.html the official site to download the software. When you start the download you will be redirected to a Source Forge site that is the mirror site that hosts the download install. DO NOT CLICK ON ANY BUTTONS ON THIS SITE. This will download the exe file to install OpenOffice which will give you the one icon to start the program. Once the program is installed you can delete the install exe file. Please respond to: users@openoffice.apache.org so that all users can help you.

Re: Icons
Since you've installed OpenOffice the icons (either shortcuts or actual files) don't need to be there. The OpenOffice program shortcuts can be found in the Start menu.

Right click on aoo launcher for writer, choose properties "Launcher" dialog displays with "OpenOffice Writer" as the only entry in the "General" tab. Click on 6th button in the right column, "Edit the currently selected item" "Edit Launcher" dialog displays for Name: OpenOffice Writer Icon: is empty; click on it "Select an Icon" dialog displays "Select icon from:" drop-down is first item; these are filters, not a way to navigate "Search icon:" entry field is second item; used to filter which icons display based on the text name of the icon has a button on the right used to clear the field I see no other data entries except for the display of possible icons. Is this the same chooser you're using? I tried everything in the settings manager and don't see an icon chooser, although I may have not included it if it's optional in the xfce4 install process.

Re: location of icons
I have Slackware Linux, not freebsd, but on my system the icons are cached and there is a program called /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache, which is supposed to update the cache when new icons are stored in /usr/(local/)share/icons/hicolor. I have a manpage on it, so you could try it to see if you have it. When I install AOO, my installation script does this caching and I have no problems with the icons in xfce4. It is also possible that xfce4 is expecting the icons to be in /usr/share/icons rather than /usr/local/share/icons. I have had such problems with other programs in the past. Note: xfce4 expects the desktop files (*.desktop) to be +x, otherwise I get a popup about the file being untrusted. It allows you to bypass the popup, but it is annoying. I set the desktop files in /opt/openoffice4/share/xdg/ to +x to resolve this. Misusing the executable flags for trustworthyness is an xfce4 kluge, but that is the way it is. hth: Girvin Herr On 10/11/2016 12:16 PM, Gary Aitken wrote: On 10/11/16 12:42, Hagar Delest wrote: How have you installed with the debs?

Re: location of icons
In xfce (I use xubuntu), the icon chooser has a drop down list with an entry for graphic files (rough translation from my French interface). If selected, it enables the path field to navigate the HD. As a workaround, you can create a custom desktop entry in your ~/.local/share/applications folder. Then put the full path of the icon in the icon line.

Re: [writer] Bullets with icons on the side of a whole paragraph
Even if it is not officially supported, you can trick the system by replacing one of the existing bullet types with your own. In Windows the directory of the bullets is: C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 3\Basis\share\gallery\bullets To use a specific bullet types you modify the type of bullet by pressing *F**11 *and select the Graphic tab.
