[libreoffice-users] Re: ThreadDeath using BasicOfficeBean.java in LibreOffice
Firstly thanks very much for responding. Sorry I should have said OpenOffice in my initial mail not StarOffice. Not sure about BeanShell... I'm talking about using BasicOfficeBean.java which is related to OfficeBean: From BasicOfficeBean.java: /* * This class provides a basic functionality of the office bean. * The application developer can subclass from this class in order * to provide application specific methods. * This class was provided by OpenOffice.org */ I was wondering if it's ok to use this code for both OpenOffice and LibraOffice - from your response I'm assuming it's ok since the code hasn't changed... The reason I was wondering is because BasicOfficeBean.java is giving ThreadDeaths. Maybe it's the way that the Next Generation Java Plugin terminates it. BasicOfficeBean creates a thread (CommandConveyor) which I'm guessing is terminated by the NG Plugin when the page changes. I'm looking at using Applet param legacy_lifecycle which might avoid the ThreadDeaths - but I'm not sure. I'm just wondering if anyone else has ThreadDeaths with the NG Java Plugin with BasicOfficeBean...

[libreoffice-users] what is the small device format importer
I was looking into my Ubuntu Applications menu and I found a listing in other called LibreOffice 3.4 Small Device Format Importer I currently run 3.4.6 on Ubuntu 10.04/GNOME. Originally this launcher was hidden, or not checked to be viewed. So I decided to see what it was all about. When I clicked on that menu launcher, it just opened LO to a blank new Writer document. So, that was no clue. So do any of you know what this is all about?

I think the answer you will get on the dev list will be to upgrade to the latest supported version. This will also allow us to test your bug report, confirm whether is happens on the latest version. As far as the length of time goes, the triage of bugs does take time depending on the severity of bugs submitted. Also, most of the devs are volunteers and it does take some time for someone to either be assigned to it or for someone to pick it up. The more people test it with descriptive results the quicker and easier it will be to fix or at the very least find a temporary workaround.

Because this package has no binaries on it's own, so there basically is nothing to invoke from menu. This hidden entry is created by /usr/share/applications/libreoffice-javafilter.desktop file. It's only purpose is to register few mimetypes in global mimetype database and associate them with LO Writer. This way if you ever happen to have file from one of said programs, your file manager (Nautilus, perhaps) will know that it is supposed to run LO Writer. But because of .desktop files works, side-effect of this will be entry in start menu. So they put another keyword to hide this entry from user's view.

Choose the desired file from the browser window I get the message Please choose Connect to an existing database' to connect to an existing database instead A little research implies that I have to start a back end program to make the desired file available to LibreOffice as a running interface, rather than as a file. But it's not clear what this program would be. Is such a program available for Fedora-16 (on x86_64 hardware), which is what my system is? If so, what is it?

I wanted to know why and what for, not to have a pity party. I do not need a $200 phone, since I do everything I want on my desktop and laptops. Try getting a tablet or phone to include 3 TB of storage and able to print to 4 different printers at the same time. So I do not need to pay out for such a phone when I need other things, like 24 inch monitor and a second 2 GB drive. If the LO site is liked by a smartphone QR code, then people needs to make sure that the phones that can use these images can read the LO site well. Not every one has a 7 or 10 inch display on a tablet phone. It needs to be read by the smaller screens, like Blackberry phones. I just tried those QR codes and they all take me to where I can download the Linux x86 version. The web site is quite usable on my phone, so yes they do work with a capable device. Since you choose to not have a smart phone, then you shouldn't expect yours to work with it. The display on my phone is about 3.6 -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Hi John, Le 2012-05-19 20:08, John Hardy a écrit : Marc; Before doing this, is there anyway to upgrade to the latest version of LibreOffice? I will do that. I downloaded version 3.5.3, but I need to close a few windows before I can install it. Looks like 3.5.4 is coming along. As far as the length of time goes, the triage of bugs does take time depending on the severity of bugs submitted. Also, most of the devs are volunteers and it does take some time for someone to either be assigned to it or for someone to pick it up. Thanks for giving some perspective to the time line. The bug was assigned to libreoffice-b...@lists.freedesktop.org, but I have no idea what that means, or if anyone has actually even seen the bug. I will update the bug report as soon as I install V3.5.3 or 3.5.4 and try things. Thanks. John Thanks! BTW ... I downloaded your graphic. I am not all that familiar with Draw, how do I go about finding out the dimensions of your drawing so that I can compare its size to the EPS version?

Marc; BTW ... I downloaded your graphic. I am not all that familiar with Draw, how do I go about finding out the dimensions of your drawing so that I can compare its size to the EPS version? The reference file file should look properly scaled when viewed in Draw. You can see it correctly scaled by visiting the product page and looking at the picture of the correctly scaled image as printed on the product: http://www.johnhardyco.com/990OpAmpDetails.html It is when you Export the file using the EPS file-type and view the EPS file with GIMP (and other viewers) that you can see that things are scaled incorrectly. The first clue when viewing the EPS file: Look at the model number, 990c. The c is overlapping the 0. It is not supposed to overlap. I created two separate text boxes, one for the 990 and one for the c, so that I could control the spacing between the main part number (990) and the suffix (c), as well as use different sizes for the text in each box. Somehow during the incorrect scaling everything gets about 10% bigger and the c overlaps the 0 as a result. If you take the reference file and Export as PDF, it should be correctly scaled when viewed as a PDF (the c does not overlap the 0). So something is different between Export as PDF, and Export with the EPS file-type chosen. Yet both methods work OK in OpenOffice 3.3. Let me know if you need further information or example files. But comparing the results of [Export as PDF] and [Export with the EPS file-type] should reveal that the EPS approach is not scaling things correctly. Thank you.

Marc; By the way, if it is allowed to attach images here, I can provide an image of two of the aluminum potting shells side-by-side, one having a correctly scaled image, the other incorrectly scaled.
