Hi :) That is quite a bit more money than i thought.  So, maybe some of that could be used to reward one or 2 of the authors in some small way.  I think probably better if it's more like a medal, or like the DistroWatch rewards system (where people kinda vote informally for which project gets

Hi Peter I've just taken a quick look at your chapter and agree that Tango is not too good an icon set. I've expressed the same opinion to Jean and I hope the decision will be made to stay with Galaxy. With regards to the chapter you've just posted, the copyright page carries the date range

I tested the possible problem with comments created by LO 4.0.0.0.beta2 (32 bit). LO 3.5.7and 3.6.5.2 both opened it with no problems. Even the Ubuntu version 3.5.4 opened it. One thing that I did notice is that all of these versions placed the arrow at the beginning of the range of text

Hi Dan My problem exists on LO 4.0.0.1. I only have Windows to check it on and it causes the error there. The problem, to reiterate, is caused by selecting a range of text and inserting a comment, as opposed to just clicking in the text and then inserting a comment. This can be seen here:

I've done a little more testing on the problem of LO not opening the documents in which I'd selected text and added comments to it. It appears to only affect the LO User Guides documents. Perhaps it is something to do with their origins, or the template. I've no way of knowing. However, I can

Very likely, there is no difference between the two of them. One way to test this is to select Tango and take several screen shots of the icons. Then select Automatic (Tango) and do the same thing. Then compare the screen shots. I have version 4.0.0.1 for 32 bit and 64 bit Debian. (I

Hi :) It is good to hear the differences (if any) are not very noticeable.  I think that's the only bit that is of crucial interest to the Docs Team except perhaps in one of the guides if there is a paragraph about icon sets.  Even there it probably doesn't matter much unless the different sets
