Re: [libreoffice-users] Problem with eLAIX extension on LibO 4.0

2013-08-09 Thread Joaquín Lameiro
Thanks, Niklas and Fernand.

I just reinstalled once more eLAIX 4.0.3 and now it runs perfectly. Anyway, 
before reinstalling it, I check the BASIC macros and LibO had eLAIX there 
(under My macros), but, apparently, some of the paths were wrong. Maybe 
because I first installed eLAIX on LibO 4.1 and then downgrade to 4.0? No idea, 
but still it works now, so thanks everybody!

Hi Joaquín

It sounds like the macro code is not located where the toolbar thinks 
it's located or is missing.

If you press Alt+F11
Under My macros (Mina makron in Swedish) do you find a eLAIX?
if not do you see eLAIX under LibreOffice Macros (LibreOffice-makron)?

I did personally not have any issues installing and using the extension 
on LibreOffice 4.0.4 on Windows 7 64-bit so it should be compatible with 
that version.

Just to make sure, you have reinstalled the extension, in any case do it 
again and see if you get any different result. Something might have gone 
wrong when you upgraded that might be fixed by uninstalling and 
reinstalling the extension.

 Hello.

 I have installed the eLAIX extension for Libre Office and it won't work. No 
 matter what action I try to perform, I get a message of this kind:
 BASIC runtime error.
 An exception of
 Type: com.sun.star.container.NoSuchElementException
 Message: occurred.

 (the message occurs in Swedish, this is a quick translation).

 I used eLAIX for Libre Office in other computers and systems, and it worked 
 perfectly, so I have no idea what the problem might be.
 This time, I am running Libre Office 4.0.4.2 on Windows Vista 32 bits SP 2 
 and I've tried eLAIX versions 4.0.3 (current stable version) and 4.0.1 (first 
 version supporting LibO 4.0). I had previously tried eLAIX 4.0.3 on LibO 
 4.1.0, and I thought the problem was due to eLAIX not supporting LibO 4.1, so 
 I uninstalled LibO 4.1 and returned to 4.0. Anyway, the problem still the 
 same: no matter what version of LibO or eLAIX I use, I get the above error 
 message or something similar.

 Could you give me a hand on this? Thanks for your kindness.

 Best regards,
 Joaquín

[libreoffice-users] Installing 4.1 on OpenSuse

2013-08-09 Thread Regina Henschel

Hi all,

I make my first steps in using Linux and have got a OpenSuse 12.3 on my 
old Notebook. Now I try to install LO4.1. I have download the archive, 
unpacked it and followed the instructions in its readme. I can get the 
single modules from the application launcher, but there remain two problems.

(1)
The instruction mention a directory desktop-integration to be in the 
folder RPMS, but there is no such directory.

(2)
I want to get an icon on the desktop, which launches the start center, 
not a specific module. How do I get that?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Installing 4.1 on OpenSuse

2013-08-09 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :D
Wow!! :)  You are kidding right?  We get a chance to help you for once rather 
than the other way around??  

1.  The instructions are out-of-date but only by 1 version number.  Desktop 
integration got pulled into the main thing so you have already done that part. 
:)

2.  For this one we kinda need to know which Desktop Environment you chose for 
your openSuSE.  On their downloads page they give 2 within 1 click, Gnome and 
KDE;  
http://software.opensuse.org/123/en
but many others are within easy reach (allegedly)
Blackbox, GNOME, IceWM, KDE, LXDE, Openbox, WMaker, Xfce
some of which might be better on a lower spec or older machine so it's possible 
you went for one of those.  If you copypaste the name of the download then we 
might be able to tell from that.  If you didn't get advice about which might be 
best then this list might have led you to get the Gnome one, which is 
excellent.  KDE used to have a reputation for being heavy and slow but i think 
it's reversed that in recent years.  

Whichever one you have it is quite likely that all you need do is find 
LibreOffice in the menus, right-click and choose Add to panel or Add to 
desktop.  Adding to panel means getting a link somewhere on your taskbar so 
it's much the same as the Quick Launcher in Xp, Win2k, ME, Win98 or like the 
pinned to taskbar in Win7.  So it's not quite the same but does put it in 
easy reach all the time.  


Btw you can find the official openSuSE forums and stuff at 
http://forums.opensuse.org/forum.php

i got that link from DistroWatch
http://distrowatch.com/suse
which lists the help forums, download sites and shed-loads more about each 
different distro.  There's very few it doesn't cover.  openSuSE is now 6th in 
their listings.  

Also a more general forum (that covers many different distros so sometimes the 
answers need a bit of minor interpreting (which we could do if you gave us 
their answers))
http://www.linuxquestions.org


Welcome in btw!!  Congrats on getting this far!  
Many regards from 
Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] Feature Request

2013-08-09 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
1.  I actually prefer this method of support.  When i ask a question it's 
usually because i am not aware of all the variables and so it's difficult to 
ask exactly the right question.  This method of support means we often answer 
the right question even if that was not exactly the question  that was asked.  
So, it's easier to ask and then try to guide the answers in light of what 
people respond with.  


2.  You can probably still Alt and drag your window around but now you just 
don't need to because you can also drag normally now.  


3.  Hmm, if GEdit is behaving and LO isn't then it's either a very specific 
setting in your DE that is making one or the other behave unusually or it is a 
setting in either GEdit or LO.  If you could try with a couple more apps then 
it might help to pinpoint which 1 is getting special treatment.  


Apols and regards from 

Tom :)

2) Now I can click on any libre office window, and it pops down to a

feature on, or what, because it works now without pressing the left Alt key.

3) Re: the different window manager issue, I agree, it seems that it

Nevertheless, thank you!

 The template is originally in Farsi as an RTL language. When you open

 But when I import that template in LO Writer, regardless of direction of

 You can practically see this wrong numbering direction in Chapter 3 of

 The chapter 3 is not translated and you can see that by changing
 direction of paragraph of ‫۳.۱-‬ to LTR, it only changes to 3.1-,
 both of them in left to right direction
 
 Generally speaking numbers (like ۱.۹۹ = 1.99) in Farsi are from left to
 right and characters are from right to left, but for Outline Numberings
 (i.e. Numbering of Headings) most books and publications use the right
 to left direction as in characters and not as in simple numbers. But it
 seems that LO Writer represents Outline Numberings like simpler numbers
 from left to right.
 
 I want to know is there any method to show numbering of headings
 (Tools-Outline_Numbering) in right to left direction? (e.g. sub-chapter
 1 of chapter 3 as ‮۳-۱-‬ instead of ‫۳.۱-‬)

I have a series of data. Here you have a small sample (this data is

=REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(A1;1;1;2013);11;1;

As the result I get this in cell B1:
2013-08-01 17:27:13

My question: Is there a way to simplify the formula? However it works,
it doesn't seem to be very elegant right now.


I'd probably do something like
=2013-MID(A1;3;2)-MID(A1;6;2)
MID(A1;9;2):MID(A1;12;2):RIGHT(A1;2)
instead.  Only you can decide whether this is more elegant.

But notice that your formula does not create what I would call a proper
date and time format, but instead a text string that looks like a date
and time value.  (So does my version, of course.)  To see the
difference, try adding 1 to the date and time value.  In your case you
will get the result 1, since the text string is treated as zero, but
adding one to a genuine date and time value produces a time exactly one
day later.  You can convert the result of either formula to a real date
and time using
=DATEVALUE(B1)+TIMEVALUE(B1)
and then formatting the result cell appropriately (as -MM-DD HH:MM:SS).

You can build this idea into my version by using
=DATEVALUE(2013-MID(A1;3;2)-MID(A1;6;2))+TIMEVALUE(MID(A1;9;2):MID(A1;12;2):RIGHT(A1;2))


But that leads to what is perhaps a simpler version:
=DATE(2013;MID(A1;3;2);MID(A1;6;2))+TIME(MID(A1;9;2);MID(A1;12;2);RIGHT(A1;2))

Again, you need to format the result cell to display the date and time
as you wish to see them.

I trust this helps.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Installing 4.1 on OpenSuse

 Hi all,

Hello Regina,
I appreciate your efforts to shift to Free Software. However in the
Linux world unlike in Windows most users use Repositories to install,
manage and update applications. There are many advantages of using repos:
1- The repo itself tracks latest version of applications and so you can
always be updated without the need to download and update your
applications one by one.
2- All packages in a repo are consistent with each other. As you may
know many packages depend on others (i.e. libraries); When you manually
install a software which is not in repo, it may need some libraries
which are not present and so the software may not work properly or it
leads to upgrade of those libraries which may break some other
applications (in case the library upgrade is not backward compatible
e.g. gnome 3.8).
3- You can download and install a .rpm (for fedora and suse) or .deb
(for ubuntu and debian) file of a software. In this case all
dependencies will be checked and only if no incompatibility exists it
allows installation. This method is safer but it lacks automatic upgrade
feature.
4- Mostly professional users and usually for specific purposes manually
download archive (.tar.gz) of a software from its website and then
follow the inner instructions to install it. There is a convention to
install manually installed software to /opt (abbreviation for optional)
to differentiate them from software installed from repos. Not only you
can not automatically update software installed with this method, but
also the software may not work properly due to inconsistencies.
5- Windows applications usually solve the inconsistency problem by
installing most of their needed libraries again. This solution usually
ends to applications which occupy huge size on the disk, which is mostly
redundant.

Therefore I recommend you to install your desired application (e.g.
libreoffice) from OpenSuse repository directly. It seems that the latest
version of LO in OpenSuse 12.3 official repo is 3.6.3. So if you want to
install the latest version of LO, you can use 3rd party repos specific
to OpenSuse. I could find two 3rd party repos for LO for OpenSuse 12.3:
1. Repo named LO Stable with version 4.0.3 with URL
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Stable/openSUSE_12.3/
2. Repo named LO Unstable with version 4.1.0 with URL
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_12.3/

These repos must update automatically when newer version of LO come out
and so you can update your installed LO in the future only with some
clicks, no more efforts.

For instructions on how to add a repository see:
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Add_package_repositories

For the list of all official, semi-official and 3rd party repos see:
http://en.opensuse.org/Package_repositories
http://en.opensuse.org/Additional_package_repositories#LibreOffice_STABLE

 I can get the single modules from the application launcher, but there
remain two
 problems.
 (1)
 The instruction mention a directory desktop-integration to be in the
 folder RPMS, but there is no such directory.
 (2)
 I want to get an icon on the desktop, which launches the start center,
 not a specific module. How do I get that?

Short answer: No, it is not possible.
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=98190

You should make an enhancement request for LibreOffice with link to the 
old OpenOffice.org issue.


Kind regards

Hi :)  
This is all true but LibreOffice and Evolution are exceptions because most 
repos have such older versions that most people want to upgrade.  

LO has some tweaks for different DEs (that's what the desktop integration is 
about (i think)) and so mostly it's preferable to have the more advanced 
features rather than just a slightly nicer looking one.  LO looks quite nice 
enough from the site as it is.  Also i don't think there is a problem with 
dependency issues.  Mostly the package managers take care of all that although 
some distros make that quite tough (not looking at anyone in particular Girvin 
(Slackware right?)).  I think you state that in point 3 so i am just agreeing 
there.  There is not much danger of the problems in 4 although it's 
theoretically possible.  

So i think you raise over-complicated points that are not really relevant.  
Since most of the rest of us also do that quite often you are in the right

Hello Regina,
I appreciate your efforts to shift to Free Software. However in the
Linux world unlike in Windows most users use Repositories to install,
manage and update applications. There are many advantages of using repos:
1- The repo itself tracks latest version of applications and so you can
always be updated without the need to download and update your

2- All packages in a repo are consistent with each other. As you may
know many packages depend on others (i.e. libraries); When you manually
install a software which is not in repo, it may need some libraries
which are not present and so the software may not work properly or it
leads to upgrade of those libraries which may break some other
applications (in case the library upgrade is not backward compatible
e.g. gnome 3.8).
3- You can download and install a .rpm (for fedora and suse) or .deb
(for ubuntu and debian) file of a software. In this case all
dependencies will be checked and only if no incompatibility exists it
allows installation. This method is safer but it lacks automatic upgrade
feature.
4- Mostly professional users and usually for specific purposes manually
download archive (.tar.gz) of a software from its website and then
follow the inner instructions to install it. There is a convention to
install manually installed software to /opt (abbreviation for optional)
to differentiate them from software installed from repos. Not only you
can not automatically update software installed with this method, but
also the software may not work properly due to inconsistencies.
5- Windows applications usually solve the inconsistency problem by
installing most of their needed libraries again. This solution usually
ends to applications which occupy huge size on the disk, which is mostly
redundant.

Therefore I recommend you to install your desired application (e.g.
libreoffice) from OpenSuse repository directly. It seems that the latest
version of LO in OpenSuse 12.3 official repo is 3.6.3. So if you want to
install the latest version of LO, you can use 3rd party repos specific
to OpenSuse. I could find two 3rd party repos for LO for OpenSuse 12.3:
1. Repo named LO Stable with version 4.0.3 with URL
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Stable/openSUSE_12.3/
2. Repo named LO Unstable with version 4.1.0 with URL
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_12.3/

These repos must update automatically when newer version of LO come out
and so you can update your installed LO in the future only with some
clicks, no more efforts.

For instructions on how to add a repository see:
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Add_package_repositories

For the list of all official, semi-official and 3rd party repos see:
http://en.opensuse.org/Package_repositories
http://en.opensuse.org/Additional_package_repositories#LibreOffice_STABLE

 I can get the single modules from the application launcher, but there
remain two
 problems.
 (1)
 The instruction mention a directory desktop-integration to be in the
 folder RPMS, but there is no such directory.
 (2)
 I want to get an icon on the desktop, which launches the start center,
 not a specific module. How do I get that?

Hi Regina,
When you are in the RPM directory, after installing the main LO programs, do
this:

cd ./desktop-integration and then 'rpm -Uvh *suse*.rpm.  That should take
care of #1.

Not sure  about what you mean by the start center. In the lower left corner
of the screen (if you're using KDE) is a startup icon. You can start any
installed program from there. LO will be under Office  Word Processors. OR
you can do like many of use and either put the icon on the desktop or in the
bottom panel.

Hello Davies,

In the case of LO you're right and manual install will not cause any issue.
But as a typical user of Linux I prefer installing applications from the
default or 3rd party repo. Because this way is easier and mainly because
of AUTOMATIC UPDATE capability.
But many members of this list (like you and Regina) are more than just
typical users of Linux and are somehow professional LO users. Therefor
in this case you're right and manual install can be a good option too.
Anyway it's up to you.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Installing 4.1 on OpenSuse

2013-08-09 Thread Tim Lloyd

Hi Regina,

welcome to the wonderful world of linux. Feel free to ask questions as 
there is a learning curve :)


I am not familiar with Suse but most linux flavours have a few 
consistencies. Not strictly answering your question but my thoughts:


1. With linux you are likely to have a number of workspaces and you can
   navigate left to right by using CTRL-ALT-Right Arrow or Left Arrow
2. I normally dedicate a workspace to LO (in my case workspace 4)
3. When I go to the desktop menu I can select the Office TAB and
   select (eg.) LibreOffice Writer which opens a blank document
4. F4 to close this document
5. the LO start center should appear on your desktop
6. I just leave the start center in that workspace whenever I need to
   use it

Now a couple of qualifiers:

I guess you are using KDE and I am not familiar with how you access the 
menu in step 3 (according to the doco there should be an office icon 
at the top of the screen - I am guessing you are not seeing that)
Normally the office tab will have a libreoffice option which removes 
the need to open up a blank doc. A well intentioned update to 4.1 is 
causing a bit of strife in this regard.


Hope this helps

Tim

Clement Lefebvre, the project leader of Linux Mint, has already
included my work in Mint 15 Olivia and an updated version will be part
of Mint 16.

We are having problems with the implementation though, because our
theme is not among the supported themes on Libre Office. We had to
pretend to be another theme for it to be detected. Specifically, we
named it images_human.zip because I noticed that Ubuntu's theme Human
is supported.

What steps do I need to take to have our icon theme included in Libre Office?

Hoping for a favorable response.

Regards,
Bamm

Hi,

I have a strange problem. Whenever I type numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.) they don't 
show up in English alphabet, but in some unknown language (see the picture 
[1]). Whenever I copy-paste to other applications, it shows up correctly as 1, 
2, 3, etc. I have set English (USA) as my language, but this bug affects only 
numbers! I don't have this problem in other applications.

Hi.
What is the locale you have set in your operating system.
Does it make a difference if you tick Ignore system input language on 
your screen shot.

2013-08-09 Thread Sina Momken
Hello,
This is not a bug. I guess the document was written in a bi-directional
enabled Writer using Hindi Numerals.
To fix it do:
1-
Tools-Options-Language_Settings-Languages-Enhanced_language_support-Show
UI elements for Bi-Directional writing
2- OK (which closes options)
3- Go to options-Language_Settings again and then you should find
Complex Text Layout or Bi-Directional Layout or something like that
(3rd in the list).
4- General_options-Numerals=Context (I guess it should currently be Hindi)

Respond back if this answer worked.

Regards,
 Sina Momken
