It's not there. I can remember it being there in older versions, but
for
some reason not this one. I have gone through each section under
options, thinking that maybe I didn't remember it right, even went to
tools->customize, and of course it wasn't there. I am using the version
as available on the Fedora 16 repo, which is what I've always done once
LO replaced OOo on Fedora, but that shouldn't matter.
Ah. It's a distro issue. I just brought up Linux Mint 12 LO 3.4.4 and
the option is missing there as well. Fired up Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty) and
the option is there with LO 3.3.4 (distro version). I reckon that the
distro packagers are trying to dumb down everything... including LO.
File an LO bug in both Fedora and LO.
Note: installing directly from LO (3.3.4 or 3.4.x) has the option, so
it's definately a distro packaging issue.
[TAG] LibreOffice linux distribution versions missing
'Tools|Options|General|Open/Save dialogs' option.
Yep, that's what I was beginning to think. I don't know why unless
they want LO to maintain its own environment? Not sure if that is
phrased correctly. Or maybe something has changed in the way LO
requests that dialogue and the way the system responds to the request.
I wonder if completing the change over to systemd has anything to do
with it. If someone has Fedora 15 that was the last version before
everything was cut over to systemd.
Based on that I am planning on filing a bug report with Fedora for
removing that option and with LO for not allowing the ability to do
from their own dialogue. Would you mind replying with a link for doing
the LO bug report?
In Suse/kde I get the KDE (dolphin?) file dialogue. Top right that has
the settings icon with normal show/hide hidden files option.
