Hi flywire, Of course, it's a bug. Only an enhancement request. See https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144701 which is marked as duplicate of a bug I have reported in 2014. And for an enhancement request you need a developer, who is interested. Formatting for a query has

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

Hi flywire, 1. Numbers are not aligned right by default eg https://books.libreoffice.org/en/GS72/GS7208-GettingStartedWithBase-img/GS7208-GettingStartedWithBase-img043.png You could report a bug/enhancement request for this. If I create a table the alignment will be set to horizontal

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

Re Chapter 5 queries. Some interesting and unexpected things are apparent about Tables/Queries in the Getting Started Guide with Base I didn't notice in the Base Guide: 1. Numbers are not aligned right by default

Review of BG7306-Reports_SF_FW_03Feb2022.odt complete. There are two comments, one I can't delete (see https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/possible-bug-cant-fully-delete-comment-when-record-track-changes-is-on/50320/1). Worst case I suppose an xml edit would fix it. This document has a really poor style

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

Hi, Thanks for the comments. I will check through the tracked changes and process them in the next few days. As for the six additional comments listed below, I'd prefer to address the document-related issues when we get around to properly checking and updating the affected chapter. Perhaps w

Review of Chapter 5 complete - BG7305-Queries_SF_NI_31Jan2022.odt - Worked through demo database. - References added for remaining Figures and Table. Comments for the record and wider consideration: 1. Can't select multiple fields and apply the same action to all, eg add fields to

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

Thank you for those comments. With regards to the two general points: 1.    “I note most of the figures used are not referenced in the text”. This is the situation throughout the document and was inherited from the previous issue. As we review and update chapters more fully (such as the work w

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

Thanks for that. I agree that the specific figure that you mention in Chapter 5 of the Base Guide is crowded. It should be replaced when we get around to performing a full review of that chapter in a future issue. As for modifying the template, your suggestion may be a sensible one. However,

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

These are comments in the vicinity of changes as I've skimmed chapters and haven't followed the examples using Base ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/DocumentationTeamInfo/ProducingLibreOfficeUserGuides#What_to_look_for_in_an_update_or_review ). It's good to see the document tone

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] 7.3 Base Guide - updates to Chapters 5 and 6

General comment on template. Figures are very crowded eg BG7305-Queries_SF_12Jan2022.odt Figure 2. Readability might be improved with more whitespace before/after figures, say 0.21cm padding. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: documentation+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libre
