Bug ID: 111873
Summary: Check For Updates not available if no document open
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.4.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: brendan.si...@etrix.com.au
Description:
The `Check For Updates` menu item is not available, because the `Help` menu is
not shown, unless I open a document (existing or new).
I should not be forced to open a document to check for updates.
A lot of macOS apps have this in the application menu.
Some other applications (e.g. FireFox, Thunderbird) have the check for update
as a separate button in the `About` dialog. I don't necessarily suggest this,
but it's an option (event though it's a two step process).
There may be other operations that also could benefit from being visible
without requiring a document to be open.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice (without any documents open).
2. No way to check if there are any updates.
Actual Results:
No `Check For Updates` menu item is available.
Expected Results:
I would expect to be able to search for updates at any time, whether or not any
documents are open.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.12; rv:54.0)
