RE: Integration des dt. Wörterbuches in mein kürzlich install. App Andropen office Ver 1.5
Moin Bernd, ich selbst habe AndrOpen Office noch nicht installiert mangels fehlendem Tablets. Das was ich Dir schreibe, habe ich dem Netz entnommen. Die Version 1.5 von AndrOpen Office unterstützt jetzt die Installation von Extensionen. Ich weiß nicht welche Version des Wörterbuches dort mitgeliefert wurde, die Aktuelle ist vom 6.12.2013. Um das deutsche Wörterbuch zu installieren / aktualisieren musst Du den Extensionsmanager benutzen ( Extras Extensions Manager) . Bei einem bereits installiertem Wörterbuch versuche es mittels Klick auf den Button Auf Update prüfen . Ich weiß allerdings nicht, ob die Updatefunktion bei dem portierten Projekt aktiviert ist. Ein anderer Weg ist, mittels Klick auf Hinzufügen eine neue Extension zu installieren. Du kannst dann über das Internet eine neue Version suchen, hier zwei Adressen: http://extensions.openoffice.org/de/project/german-de-de-frami-dictionaries oder http://www.prooo-box.org/live/seiten/erweiterung.html Du solltest beim Weg der Neuinstallation eine mögliche, installierte Version vorher deinstallieren. AndrOpen Office ist eine von Apache anerkannte Portierung des Paketes OpenOffice auf Android. http://www.openoffice.org/porting/ Gruß aus Stockelsdorf, Jan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-de-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-de-h...@openoffice.apache.org
RE: Integration des dt. Wörterbuches in mein kürzlich install. App Andropen office Ver 1.5
Moin Bernd, alles zurück, die Beschreibung im Netz ist falsch. Ich habe mir mittlerweile Android in einer virtuellen Maschine installiert, incl. AndrOpen Office. Das Wörterbuch kann wie folgt installiert werden: Download der Extension hier: http://extensions.openoffice.org/de/project/german-de-de-frami-dictionaries AndrOpenOffice starten Dann auf das Ordnersymbol bzw. Öffnen klicken In der Liste den Ordner Download suchen In den Ordner Download springen, dann siehst Du auch die Extension als OpenOffice Datei Auf die Datei klicken, es wird OpenOffice gestartet. Ist OpenOffice gestartet, erscheint ein Hinweisfenster mit der Nachfrage zur Installation der Extension. Einfach auf OK klicken und das Wörterbuch wird installiert.

Automatische Silbentrennung funktioniert auf einmal nicht
Hallo Experten, ich nutze AAO 3.4.1 auf einem Windows-XP-Rechner, bis jetzt immer zur Zufriedenheit. Zur Zeit ärgert mich, dass bei allen Dateien, die ich öffne, die automatische Silbentrennung nicht mehr aktiv ist, obwohl im Menü Absatz Textfluss die automatische Silbentrennung bei jeder meiner Absatzvorlagen nach wie vor mit Häkchen versehen ist. Irgendwann war das schon einmal der Fall, da habe ich mir zeitweise mit manueller Silbentrennung die Zeit vertrieben. Leider weiß ich nicht mehr, wie ich die Automatik dann doch wieder zum Laufen gekriegt habe. Hat jemand eine Idee, was ich tun kann? Gruß, Helmut
gestrichelte horizontale Linie
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, seit kurzem arbeite ich mit open office 4.0. Wie bekomme ich eine gestrichelte horizontale Linie hin ??? Wenn ich, wie gewohnt über die Tastatur eine Linie ziehe, wir diese nachdem ich enter gedrückt habe, um in der nächsten Zeile weiter zu schreiben, zu einer durchgängigen Linie, die sich immer weiter wiederholt. Vielleicht gibt es auch eine Telefon-Nr. um das der einfachheithalber zu beprechen. Für eine schnelle Rückmeldung wäre ich dankbar. Viele Grüße B.

Re: gestrichelte horizontale Linie
Zumindest eine Teilantwort: sobald du eine Linie gezogen hast, wird diese zum Teil der Absatzvorlage sozusagen. Und dann wird jeder neuer Absatz ebenfalls automatisch mit einer Unterlinie versehen. Um sie wegzukriegen, musst du mit der rechten Maustaste auf den Absatz klicken, das Menü Absatz wählen, und dort unter dem Tab Umrandung auf Stil - Keine klicken. Dann ist die untere Rahmenlinie weg. 2014-05-18 18:53 GMT+02:00 Brigitte Kapteina brigitte.kapte...@t-online.de : Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, seit kurzem arbeite ich mit open office 4.0.

Re: Suggestion.
Not to argue, but just to mention my experiences -- I do on the spot formatting on many occasions and I've never felt hampered by not having the reveal codes capability. Also, I've used styles on many other occasions, and likewise have never felt hampered by not having reveal codes. I DO find it helpful on many occasions to use the View Non-printing characters (also accessed by clicking on the paragraph symbol button, or selecting Ctrl+F10) feature, to see where hard returns are, where spaces are, etc. Especially when editing text that someone else created, in particular one person who submits to the newsletter that I edit where, rather than using tabs to create a table-like format, he uses spaces. Based on a post of someone else, it seems like some of the features that this person was complaining about not having in Open Office are in fact achievable by the View Non-printing characters feature. Doug Johnson wrote: I agree with the On the spot need. Quite simply, Reveal Codes allows me to see what's going with a glance.

I've used styles a lot with Open Office and I greatly appreciate how valuable they can be; for example, I edit a newsletter and styles have made my life way easier and made the resulting newsletter way more consistent. On the other hand, there are many places, in smaller documents, where I want to format something on the spot without setting up styles -- changing the spacing between paragraphs, making some text bold, indenting a paragraph, etc., and I often do that without using styles. And it works just fine. So if someone wants to use styles, they can use them. If someone doesn't want to use styles and do formatting on the spot without going through styles, that can be done too.

If the programmers behind OO want to provide a word processor which will attract users, and avoid the very high costs of the MJKS or Corel products, those programmers might want to seriously consider the efficacy of providing what the users who have expressed an opinion appear to want, rather tahn take the ...my way or the highway... approach expresseed here so far.

Re: Suggestion.
For me personally I worked with Styles for about three decades and find this the best way to control my documents. Nevertheless we should not be blind for the needs of others, managing Styles has a long learning curve and someone can make many mistakes before he master Styles. Where someone can fall into the trap is the complexity of inherited properties from parent Styles. Even if you are an expert in Style formats you come into problems when you have to combine documents which are originated from different persons. Users tend to ask for something they are familiar with instead of expressing their problem, they ask for Reveal Codes but what they need is something like Reveal my Mistakes with Styles or better Help me to Avoid Making Mistakes. One of the simple things that could help users is information of each property within a Style that shows from which Style the property is inherited e.g. Heading 1 inherit properties from Style Heading and Style Heading inherit properties from Style Default. Displaying this information either in the Style and Formatting Toolbar or in the Sidebar will help to analyze the formatting issues.

That is what WP called Reveal Codes, where every change that was made in the document was shown by a particular code. e.g.: Hard return was HRT. If this was not what was wanted then you could make the change you required. Or as sometimes happens in OpenOffice, something happens which I don't understand, I have no way of finding out why.

The next week group was created only until the 30th but the month has 31 days. The easiest way would be so split a cell to reflect space for month day number, special notation to right of month day number; space below these two for notes of that day such as medical appointment; lastly section below for tracking numbers. 21 Garbage P/U Med Appt 2:30p 129307 - 115.22 Richard Detwiler wrote: japples wrote: Is there a way to split a cell either vertically or horizontally?

But there is a sense in which you should not want to do this. A spreadsheet is basically for calculation, of course, and the values used in those calculations - whether they be numeric of textual or whatever - are defined as cell contents and addressed as such. If you divide a cell into parts - whether horizontally or vertically - there would be no way to refer to the component parts in formulae. If you achieve what you need by merging cells, there is no such problem, of course. You'll be saying that you don't want to do any calculations - which is fine. But the programmers of Calc cannot know that in advance! Since you don't want to do any calculations, all you are asking for is that you should be able to lay out the text in a cell in a specific way - and there are ways to do this.

[...] 21 Garbage P/U Med Appt 2:30p 129307 - 115.22 I'm still not clear exactly what you want, but if you just need these three lines to appear in one cell, you can do that easily. Press Ctrl+Enter to move to a new line within the same cell. Note that you need to do this whilst you are editing in the cell itself, not in the Input Line. To edit in the cell, type afresh into a cell, double-click the cell, or press F2. Alternatively you may find it helpful to tick Wrap text automatically under Properties on the Alignment tab of the Format Cells dialogue. If you use your existing scheme, do you really need to merge all those cells that are not divided? If you suppress the borders between the relevant cells, they will not appear as separate cells in your printed output. Significantly, suppressing such borders can - unlike your merging - be done wholesale. If you are doing no calculations (or even if you are), you may not need the facilities of a spreadsheet. Instead, you can lay out material in tabular fashion using a table in a text (Writer) document. Specifically, you can achieve what you ask very easily in table cells: divide them vertically or horizontally without affecting other cells in any way. I trust this helps.

I would like to vote for Reveal Codes. Reveal Codes is a very useful tool. It works independently of the Style rules and does not require the user to take time to search style rules then create or edit (causes changes in other documents?) Logically, it seems the more style rules the less efficient OO Writer. Guess you could say, reveal codes is like lifting the hood of a vehicle to change spark plugs. While style rules feature is similar to re-configuring the vehicle to operate bypassing spark plugs (takes more time and effort by the user). Thanks for your patience - Jack I think I remember some very intense discussions about this a couple of years ago, it was almost like some kind of war or something… Some people said it will never happen since there is nothing to reveal (Apache OpenOffice just doesn't work like that). Still someone managed to write an extension that does this, I think. I guess it fakes it somehow. Some people also think that it's not a good habit using them, and that styles is the way to go and so on. Some people also says that it's a bad habit to use a lot of character styles in text. So it seems like a lot of people are against the idea of reveal codes while others want them. I don't know. I have no use for them personally, so I don't care, but… well… Johnny Rosenberg It has been a long time since I tested the macro, so I don't remember what it showed and what it did not. If you really want to design this, then, it should likely not just be a duplicate of Word Perfect functionality. For example, what if My paragraph style sets character weight (that means how BOLD is it). Then, I manually set a bold amount, and, finally, I apply a character style that sets the character weight differently. Now, understand that if I do this in a macro, it is not as simple as bold is on or off, I can set a numeric value for it for all three of these things. This level of subtlety does not exist in the WP reveal codes stuff, it is merely on / off. This could be very confusing if I have the three bold settings so that they are all marginally bold (like say 90% bold, 100% bold, and 110% bold). My head hurts now! I assume that this feature (which would be cool to have) has likely not been seriously attempted for integration since a real implementation would require you to deal with these issues. Also, the macro version of the implementation is far from a working implementation. Think of it as a way to troll the code and then show an XML like version of the text in a dialog with certain change types shown; if my memory is correct. -- Andrew Pitonyak My Macro Document: http://www.pitonyak.org/AndrewMacro.odt Info: http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php --- List Conduct Guidelines: http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
