You have been subscribed to a public bug: This report is similar to bug report number 23332, where the menu by default contains only "Empty File". As a new Linux user, it seems silly to have the means to quickly create a new document, only to find an empty "New Document" or "New Document 2" file on the desktop. In windows I was able to place shortcuts to office applications in the corresponding menu, then click for instance word, and have the application "Word" open. Previous discussions about filling up this menu by default with a variety of templates could be overcome in this way in my opinion. Specific templates can always be saved as radio buttons on the tool bar in oo Writer itself, and then all we need is to get the application open via this menu, and not result in merely a blank document on the desktop. So my thinking is, right mouse click, select Create Document, click for example OOWriter, ooWriter application opens.
It would be great to see a "Launch New Document" feature enabled if this is at all possible.
