Hi Everyone
Well this is now my turn to ask for some help, and to see if any of you
have or are experiencing these issues. This applies to both my Windows
version, and Ubuntu Raring versions of LO, so a common occurrence. And
it has persisted since I migrated over to LO. Your responses will assist
me before I send this as a bug report, missing feature.
In Calc, I cannot copy and paste any data content out of the input line
at the top i.e. right click the mouse and copy using the now non
existent drop down menu. This goes for an existing spreadsheet or
creating a new one. In the past, not sure if it was early versions of LO
Calc, or OOo Calc, but I could do this, no problems. I copy from a lot
of pricelists and other similiar type spreadsheets, and paste into order
sheets or directly into emails for my business, and I find now the only
workaround is to highlight the content and Ctrl c to copy it, or using
the menu "Edit". This needs to be looked at and added as a feature, or
returned as a feature. MS Office Excel has always allowed this as well.
This next one is in Writer, and many of my clients have this issue as
well, and I feel this is a major failure or feature exclusion. Writer
cannot handle the copy and paste of multiple image files, such as photos
etc, and then automatically space them one below the other. Many of my
clients are in the field as motor vehicle assessors and take multiple
pictures of vehicle repairs (up to about twenty per vehicle), process
them to reduce their physical size, then paste them into a word
processor and compile into a PDF before emailing to the insurance
houses. MS Office can do this and has always done this with no issues
whatsoever, but LO Writer simply dumps the images one on top of the
other, with a lot of unnecessary work to have to drag and place each
image in order below the previous one. And this is not consistent,
sometimes Writer fails with a lot of photos (noticeably more than five).
This lack of feature is now forcing many of my customers to return to
MSO, and I feel it needs to be addressed and fixed.
Regards
