Very good news! Even if ODF remains the native and preferred format, 
users regularly asked for better OOXML interoperability. I agree this 
should stay in a branch and not integrated/released until it reaches the 
quality users expect from OpenOffice.

If you don't know how to do it, you need professional help to get the files off

probably be opened by OpenOffice. I'm not aware if OpenOffice can run on an

Unfortunately no :(.

The FreeBSD ports structure just encapsulates several build systems within BSD

Hi at all

This year we have no ApacheCon Europe. So it's maybe a good Idea to have 
a community meetup. At events like fosdem you have not a load of time 
for discoussions. A possible location would be the hackerspace Ruum 42 
at St. Gallen. http://www.ruum42.ch


I'm a member of this room and the feedback is at the time positive. We 
have Beamer, internet and a load of other infrastructur there. St. 
Gallen is not so far from Zurich Airport and it's not so expensiv. So 
what do you think about it?


The Room has place for about 30 persones.

Hello Andrea

Thank you for the response.

RE
1. Left side ruler.
Depending upon the zoom level, numbers from 100 up often form a
continuous numeric stream.
They can be interpreted, but it is so much easier if you can read it at
a glance.


Okay, so - as a first step - defining the jumps to new numberings to 
avoid that would be a good first step? If yes, a enhancement task with a 
case where this happens in bugzilla would be nice.




RE:
2a. Snap Lines, Snap Points and Grid

I am talking about objects that help positioning.
For example you might set a guide line at Y=100.
Then when positioning / modifying shapes, the guide may be clicked on
instead of the shape.
This is particularly troublesome when a line or point lies on or close
to the guideline.
When this happens the tiniest movement of the mouse will shift the guide
line.

This problem would be solved if the guides (or snap point) can be locked
preferably via their existing UI dialog box.
This would then operate in the same manner as shapes that can be locked
in position via their Position  Size UI dialog box.


A good suggestion, esp since guides have no undo actions. Maybe a 
pinpoint close to the edge of the page (helplines are always connected 
to the outer bounds of the eit window) would be nice, additionally to 
the possibility to lock them in the dialog. Also worth an enhancement 
task in bugzilla.




RE:
2b.
My apologies, I phrased my question badly.
Yes, you do have X-Y co-ordinates displayed.
Perhaps it is just on my computer (a fairly new 64 bit 2.4GHz Toshiba
Qosmio X870 laptop, Windows 8), but the X-Y co-ordinates do not update
when slowly and continuously dragging a shape.

Also when the movement of the shapes stops for a moment, the X-Y
co-ordinates take about one quarter to one third of a second to update.
A good update speed would be about a tenth of a second.


I think this is due to their nature as being implemented based on 
execution slots, these have those uppdate times (e.g. when selecting an 
object and until the sidebar updates). This is generally by purpose and 
fixed (to avoid too much flicker when rapidly changing selection, e.g. 
using TAB), but maybe could be improved for the feedback in the footer, 
Also good for an enhancement task in bugzilla.




RE:
2c and 2d.
I am referring to the ability to select shapes AND to also select guides
THEN group the guides with the shapes.
This facility has always existed in Visio.
It has several important advantages:

(i) When the shapes and selected guidelines are grouped, then the guides
are visually removed as unnecessary clutter from other object shapes on
the screen.
(ii) The grouping can be copied and then placed elsewhere upon the 
screen.

This is a common function.
Note that the guidelines will have different co-ordinates when the
grouping of shapes and guidelines is ungrouped.
(iii)
I have often done this just to copy a group of guidelines, so that after
positioning my copied group, I would then ungroup it and then delete the
shape object.
(iv) A very common action is to copy a shape with its guides and then
paste it onto a different page.


Also a good suggestion, the advantages are true. I have currently no 
idea how that could be done, but also a candidate for an enhancement 
task in bugzilla.





RE:
2e and 2f.
Ah, thank you.
I had in fact set this up when I first started using Draw.
Now I do not know if it is the default setting, but Snap to Grid is best
selected rather than Visible grid.
My error was that I had it set to Visible grid.

I use Snap to Grid with a 1 mm resolution with 10 subdivisions.
The reason for this is that whatever resolution that you select as
default, most of your drawing will use that setting.
In the case where you do want an off-grid point, you either use a UI
dialog box, set guidelines via a UI dialog box, or zoom into the view
you want.
When zooming, the visible grid is very handy as a reference, but not if
objects snap to it as changing the zoom level is a constant process
during drawing.

Having said all this it would be great if direct access to this UI was
made possible via an additional icon it the View-Toolbars-Options bar.


You can configure that to every toolbar you like, just use the rightmost 
small button of the toolbar you want and add it in the dialog.






Again, thanks for the great response.
Best regards,
Ian

Developing an en_US Dictionary - 2014-01-23

2014-01-23 Thread Marco A.G.Pinto

  
  
Hello!

I am the person working on the en_GB (English British) dictionary.

Rob contacted me the other day to ask if I also maintained the en_US
dictionary (English American).

Unfortunately, that dictionary is obfuscated and the solution would
be to use the one from Mozilla, just like I did for en_GB, and it
would be a huge task since I have already found over 1000 unique
words missing/typos/etc. (for en_GB).

And I am not sure if the en_US has an explanation .AFF file
describing all codes.
Official site of en_GB:
http://en-gb.pyxidium.co.uk
Just look there for the .AFF description.

What I would suggest is that someone grabs the en_US from Mozilla
and pastes the contents of my .RTF in Thunderbird or OpenOffice to
see what words aren't there (they will appear as typos).

I have developed a tool for the task (Proofing Tool GUI):
http://marcoagpinto.cidadevirtual.pt/proofingtoolgui.html

My current list of added/removed/fixed words (in Rich Text Format)
(Remember it is for en_GB):
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/30674540/en_UK_speller_for_Mozilla%2BAOO%2BLO_2013%2B.rtf

Please bear in mind that some words are slightly different in the US
such as words that have one L instead of two.

If someone takes on the project I will merge the dictionary into the
big OXT after talking with Andrea for the details.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
 Marco A.G.Pinto

 The results are promising.  It runs faster and the build.ninja generator

 Before I give you some numbers, I should say that I have collected the

 missing steps to the ninja build.  To the best of my knowledge all C++

 copied.  Only the single sw.component file somehow escaped.

 gbuild about 1m10s (make -sr -j8)
 ninja about50s (ninja)

 Building an already built module (nothing to do): depends very much on
 whether the disk cache is warm or cold.  Best times:
 gbuild   more than 3s (make -sr -j8)
 ninjaabout 0.4s(ninja)


 Why is ninja faster than make/gbuild?
 - Make runs each recipe in its own shell (bash), ninja executes its
 command directly.
 - Ninja understands the header dependencies created by gxx/clang and msvc
 and stores them in a compact format that can be read in very fast on
 startup.
 - I avoided some steps of build that are unnecessary in ninja
   = Ninja creates directories for the targets it makes.  Gbuild creates
 them explicitly.
   = GBuild first creates empty dependency files and later, in a second
 step, fills them with the actual dependency information created by one of
 the C/C++ compilers.


 But, for me, these numbers are just a welcome side effect.  More important
 to me is maintainability.
 Ninja follows a very different approach from (GNU) make.  Its lack of even
 simplest control structures such as if/then/else or foreach, requires the
 generation of the main makefile (by default that is called build.ninja) by
 program or script.  This leads to my current approach:
 - Use XML to represent the static data (C++ files, libraries, resource
 files, XML files).
 - Use a Perl script to translate the XML files into the build.ninja file.
 The best tool for each job (XML: data representation, Perl: data
 processing).  Instead of Perl we could use any language that is part of our
 current build requirements (Java, C/C++, Python (we would have to compile
 that first, though)).  Look at the Perl files in [1] or [2]
 (build/source/ninja/*pm) and compare them to solenv/gbuild/*mk and see
 which you can understand better.


 I think this could be one way to set up a better maintainable build system
 that is even slightly faster then what we currently have.

 Best regards,
 Andre

Re: My Windows Build Settings

2014-01-23 Thread Greg Bullock

Thank you, Rob.

How is the JDK part of your configuration handled?  Do you have 
something on your environment path?


I've had no success with either

--with-jdk-home=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_51

or

--with-jdk-home=$JAVA_HOME_PATH
where
JAVA_HOME_PATH=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_51

Perhaps the space in the path name frustrates the aoo build, but so far 
I'm reluctant to move JDK to a different, spaceless folder.


Regards.
Greg

Thank you, Yuri and Rob.

Yep.  That solved it.

After installing the 32-bit JDK (as Yuri suggested), and with the

--with-jdk-home

option removed (as Rob suggested), the build runs to successful completion.

 Very good news! Even if ODF remains the native and preferred format, users
 regularly asked for better OOXML interoperability. I agree this should stay
 in a branch and not integrated/released until it reaches the quality users
 expect from OpenOffice.
