------- Additional comments from nicklevin...@openoffice.org Mon Feb 9 09:43:51 +0000 2009 ------- Possibly narrowing the problem: Writer > File menu > Recent Documents > 1: . . . [path/file] opened a Text Encoded file in Writer, as it was supposed to, not in Calc, which is how it opens when using the File menu > Open method without specifying Text Encoded instead of All files in the menu that is tooltip-described as "Select which types of files are shown" when running the Gnome 2.10.0 desktop (KDE's desktop makes the Open dialog different). Speculation (mine) on why Recent Documents works: Writer stores the file type for a file created during the same Writer session, or possibly for any file still in that submenu regardless of when created or last modified. If so, a kludge would be for the Open process to access that type history, although that would result in intermittent performance when Open opens some files in Writer and others in Calc and all are of the same type. I once tried Gnome desktop > Main Menu > Places > Recent Documents, but no Text Encoded or Writer file was in that submenu, although Calc files were. I tried it again and some Text Encoded files were listed but others from the same OOo session were not and the difference mystifies me. -- Nick --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
