Dear Open office!
I am using version 2.3 for mac. and it stinks! I am sorry to say this,
but you have turned at really nice product into a copy of Microsoft
Word. The earlier versions worked very well with my keyboard and the
shortcuts. This one do not! The apple button is not integrated, and it
doesn't work with ctrl button either... the new fast scroll function is
nice, but a bit out of control some times.
I have used open office for 2 years now, I know what i am talking about.
I love the fact that it can open any file, from other programs and I
have never had problems like this before. I use open office because it
used to work better than Word, but now I am not so sure, and considering
wether I should switch back.
I am dissapointed, that the mac version is no longer as god as it used
to be.
Hope the update is better.
Hi Louise.
I am assuming you are using the OpenOffice.org that requires X11?
You can always move back to a previous version of OpenOffice.org. Many
people find that a particular version works better for their needs.
Some people are still using 1.1.5 for example.
There is a lot of work being done on the native Mac port of
OpenOffice.org. It is still in development and should be ready for
everyone with OpenOffice.org 3.0.
Also, NeoOffice does a nice job of making a native Mac version of
OpenOffice.org. They do lag at least one release behind the official
OpenOffice.org though.
There are many options available to you. I hope that you find one taht
works well for you.
