Re: [libreoffice-users] Tab Interface

2016-02-26 Thread Marion & Noel Lodge
Hi Amit, I may be wrong, but I think you were asking how to create tabs similar to those in Calc, that display different sheets. As far as I know there are no objects in Libre Office Base that give this sort of capability. But I have, on occasion, used a button to trigger a macro for making,

I think bringing Thunderbird fully under the umbrella of The Document Foundation, and as a sister project of LibreOffice, is a fantastic idea, it just makes the most sense to me as a formal and permanent home for Thunderbird going forward. The fact is, in spite of the fact that Thunderbird

No, no, no. There is no reason. Or, at the very least, it is wy too early to even consider *thinking about* a name change for Thunderbird. Personally, I wouldn't necessarily be against it, but there would have to be a decent successful history of Thunderbird development under TDF

Hi :) How do people here feel about approaching the Thunderbird people to bring them into the LibreOffice project a bit more? Perhaps they could become the official default email client? As most of you know - many organisations, particularly OpenSource ones, have departments/sections/sub-groups

I'd be fully supportive of bringing Thunderbird into the LO family. I've been a user of both for years and am very concerned about Thunderbird's future. The only Microsoft software I'm willing to actually spend money on is Windows, and I wouldn't even do that if there were a Linux version of
