OK, I've checked it. I've changed "we" to "you" throughout as I think
it reads better that way. Some paragraphs I've rewritten. You had
better check the whole thing and make sure that I haven't changed your
meaning at any point.

OK, that's uploaded to feedback. One curious thing I found was that the URLs on 
the intro page didn't work. ctrl-click changed the colour of the link but 
didn't actually open the browser. I never noticed that before when I proofread 
chapters.

I really can't remember what I've been doing. I have certainly proof-read some 
new guides. I may have done some translation from the German Base Handbook 
earlier in the year. If so, Jean or Robert should have a record of it.

I don't think I have, but I really can't remember. I usually rename the ones 
I've done and add the keyword "Proofread" when I upload them. I certainly 
wouldn't have taken anything from Feedback without being asked to.

OK, I'll look at your version of chapter 1. Someone else can do the
final check of the preface as it's already been through my hands.

[libreoffice-documentation] Sophie's wiki article on menu changes

[Hazel Russman]

I have partly translated this. You can find the translation at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Comparaison_des_menus_entre_LO_4.4.7.2_et_LO_5.1.0.2

Unfortunately the latest version of LO that I have is 5.0 and there seems to 
have been a lot of reorganisation carried out between 5.0 and 5.1 despite it 
being only a "minor release". So, as menu entries need to be given literally 
and exactly, I have translated only those that occur in the menus of LO 5.0 
(which is most of them I think); the rest are still in the original French.

Done, but I can't get the formatting quite right on the source page. It
looks OK in the preview but goes wonky when I save. Someone who knows
more about wiki markup than I do will have to fix that. The
destination page looks fine.

The columns in the table aren't straight. The text zigzags around

[libreoffice-documentation] Can someone help me to report a bug in Base?

[Hazel Russman]

I wouldn't normally bother the list with an off-topic post, but I have just 
spent a fruitless half hour trying and failing to navigate the LibreOffice bug 
site. There are instructions of course, but they seem to bear no relationship 
at all to what you see on the screen. 

Reporting bugs is a service to the community and I naturally want to do my bit, 
but I think you'd need to be cleverer than Einstein to find your way around 
that site.

[libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice 5.0 guides: page footers

[Hazel Russman]

Have we changed the conventions for page footers along with other aspects of 
guide formatting?

The left footers used to show the chapter title and the right footers the 
current section. Now both seem to show the current section. The chapter title 
only appears in the footers for the contents list pages, again on both sides. 

I need to know this kind of thing when I am proofreading.

[libreoffice-documentation] Something strange happened...

[Hazel Russman]

I've mostly been translating Robert's additions to the Base Handbook using LO 
v.5 in Crux. I needed a late version so that I could check the correct English 
for some of the prompts and options he mentions.

This morning I happened to open a file that I'd been working on in Debian 
Wheezy, which still uses LO v.4. It opened in Writer as a completely blank 
single page! The content was gone. Back to Crux and the same file opened 
normally.

This is the first time I have seen a backwards incompatibility between two 
major releases of LO. Is this a known problem?

 I am still having problems with discovering how to use OmegaT.
  Documentation does not seem to be anywhere as clear as I think it should
  be. I have documentation from OmegaT and have been able to follow their
  instructions through creating a project. I even have the document to be
  translated in the Editing pane. Then I am told to translate the
  document. But how am I suppose to do this. How do I translate one
  section at a time? I see the first page and part of the second page.
 The Documentation Foundation has documentation as well. All goes
  well until I get to Adding UI.po file. But the link is
  https://translations.documentfoundation.org/XX/libo_ui/ where XX is the
  language code. What is a language code? Where do I find the one that I
  need? Since I would be translating German to English, do I need the
  German or English language code? These points are not clear. And since
  this project is likely to involve a team, the language code is required
  before all of the other things need to be done can be.

  Well, I don't know which code you are supposed to use, but the universal 
  code for German is de and for English en. If those don't work, try 
  de_DE (German as spoken in Germany) and en_US (American English).
 
 
   I tried en, EN, en-US but none of these worked.
 
 Dan

You need underlines, not hyphens. And lower-case for the language, upper for 
the country.

 I have downloaded chapter 1 to review it. There is a method for doing
 this. Right now I don't remember where this information is. I will
 send it to you by tomorrow morning. As soon as I can get the review
 done, I will upload it to the Base Handbook folder. That is when you
 can give it an review. I will tell you when I finish. Meanwhile, I
 noticed one thing that needs to be done before anything else:
 converted to the 5.0 template. I will be doing this later today.

I'd like to do my bit but I don't want to accidentally duplicate
someone else's work. If someone could assign me specific chapters to
work on, that would be best for me. Correcting English as she is
spoken is one of the things I enjoy doing.

 Hello Hazel,
 
 Great to see you posting here again.
 
 Maybe I got it wrong in an earlier post, where I suggested that you
 understood German. I may have got the idea from seeing your name
 against reviews of previous revisions of the handbook, where you
 applied your grammatical skills to the English translations.
 
 If it is acceptable to others here, I am willing to coordinate the
 compilation of the Base Handbook - English Edition and try to avoid
 duplicated work.
 
 Dan is currently reviewing Robert's translation of Chapter 1 and based
 on the tone of his previous post, is keen to upload this for further
 review. Since nobody else has come forward yet, please work on Dan's
 review when it becomes available.
 
 Thanks  Regards
 Dave
 
 
 
Oh I know quite a lot of German! My parents were both native German
speakers. In fact I was the one who translated most of Robert's earler
Base Handbook.

 Hello Hazel,
  
  Maybe I could give you a hand.
 
 There is a lot of text added to the first Handbook. The fist edition
 had about 350 pages, this edition has 520 pages.
 
 There are some parts added, but also some parts are corrected.
 
 A lot of work ...

So it would take a long time, especially as I have other fish to fry

 2. Chapters and appendix added to create some flexibility in the guide.

 Hi :)
 Ok, i keep not understanding what's happening.
 
 Was that done to the old version of the chapter before the chaps did all
 the work on clearing x-refs and stuff?  So are they having to re-do all
 their work, or is it just Hazel's work that needs to be re-done?
 
 Is it kinda working?  Is the work-flow problematic?  Is there possibly a
 better work-flow for the future?
 
 Sorry, i am having a very bad-hair day here.

Nothing needs to be redone. All that is needed is to use LO's built-in merge 
facility to merge the published version with the two corrected versions. It 
will flag up all changes and you can decide which ones to incorporate.

Hi :)
It's Dave and Milos doing the work.  I'm just keeping an eye on the mailing
list and noticed a possible problem.

If you could let the mailing-list know what you just told me then it'd
relieve a bit of stress for Dave and Milos.  There are a lot of new people
around so sometimes people are going to need to be told things that might
seem obvious to you.  Hopefully i might be able to keep noticing when that
sort of thing happens.
Many thanks, apols and regards from
Tom :)

 done?
  Were there many changes in the proof-reading?

 I have assumed throughout that someone was going to make the corrections
 to the published book by hand. So when there were only one or two
 easily-described changes, I have written them into my email report and when
 there were more I uploaded a file into the feedback folder. I have used
 change-marking so you can see at a glance what I have done. Maybe I should
 lay off for a while until you and Dave get this reformatting sorted out.

 As usual, while compiling the book I found little things that needed

 Tom,
 
 Hazel cannot proofread the remaining chapters of the Writer Guide
 until someone updates them, so suggesting that she skip proofing the
 Impress Guide in favour of Writer is irrelevant.
 
 You seem to be perpetually of the erroneous opinion that all the work
 that needs to be done on the various books is interchangeable: that
 any volunteer can do whatever needs doing next, if only they knew what
 it is. This is wrong and unhelpful.

I would like to add that I feel more comfortable if someone drops me a line 
saying This needs doing now and you are the obvious one to do it. You know my 
strengths and weaknesses by now. I have an eagle eye for spelling mistakes, bad 
grammar, repetitive sentences, misnumbered lists and so on. I can also 
translate from German and French. I am not so good at actually working through 
a chapter and seeing how far it matches the behaviour of the software, so I 
don't volunteer for that.

[libreoffice-documentation] Base Handbook chapter 2

[Hazel Russman]

I have created a 4.2 draft folder and put into it a translation of
those segments of the Base Handbook Chapter 2 that were not in the
original translation. These are taken from version 4.2 (I thought we
might as well skip 4.0). There are a lot of German screenshots that
will need to be replaced by English ones and of course the whole thing
needs to be formatted properly.

@Jean: if you want these things put somewhere else, let me know.

 Hello Jean
 
 Could you please tell me or give me a link to the instructions on how
 to collate all the chapters into a guide and then publish the guide
 in ODT and PDF formats.
 
 I am going to make a start on the Impress Guide and upgrade to LO4.2,
 which should be fairly straight forward. Once done then I could
 publish and takes care of one guide.
 
 I am NOT volunteering as team leader. I do not have the time because

Part of the job is doing the final proof reading. I'm happy to
volunteer for that. You'll need to let me know when a book is
otherwise ready to publish.

[libreoffice-documentation] Calc wiki FAQ

[Hazel Russman]

I have more or less completed these. There are a few which I have not
included, as they are not really relevant for English speakers. And
there are a couple in the charts section which I have not included
because frankly I don't understand the subject! Someone else will have
to translate those.

Of course they all need checking and quite a few will need new
English-language screenshots.

[libreoffice-documentation] I'm not a spammer!

[Hazel Russman]

I decided to spend this afternoon doing some intensive editing of the
Calc wiki. After about two hours, the site throttled me and refused to
accept another page as an anti-spam measure. It said to try again in
a few minutes but I just got the same result so I logged off.

In future I shall do only one or two articles a day.

 3) I am still looking for one or more people to help with updating the
 Base Handbook, which was translated from German to English. In this
 case, the work involves translating new material that was added to the
 German handbook for v4.1. If you are interested in helping with this
 work, I can provide more info  point you to the relevant files.

Which is more urgent, the Base Handbook or the Calc Wiki? I can do
either but not both.

[libreoffice-documentation] Writer FAQ: Miscellaneous.

[Hazel Russman]

I have now completed this final section of the FAQ. Most of the
articles are fresh translations from the French and will have to be
checked for accuracy. In one or two cases, I have added material to
make the instructions clearer:

1) The section on thumbnail previews now has an extra step (File|Print
preview) without which it will not work.
2) The section on business cards has been rewritten and extended as
the original instructions were not at all easy to follow.

I have been using LO3.5.4 for the necessary experiments: LO4 might be
different.

Some of the articles have screenshots and some have links to French
HOWTOs in odt format. I have commented these out rather than deleting
them as there may be English equivalents somewhere (our English HOWTO
page seems rather bare!)

[libreoffice-documentation] Writer FAQ: section on charts

[Hazel Russman]

There are only three questions in this section. The second two are my
translations from the French. They will need checking for correct
rendering as well as updating with proper English screenshots. And I
would appreciate it if someone would tell me how to do cross-links,
because mine never work!

 What do you mean by cross-links?
 
 The only link I found not working was the 'annotation' in Q.140. There
 was a missing references / tag which I added at the bottom of the
 article.

There's a red cross-link to another article, which should be blue.
