Re: [libreoffice-users] Moving list items and re-numbering
Thank you. I seem to have missed this particular site. I will certainly spend some time here. I also added the IRC channels for LibreOffice and LibreOffice-QA.

off-list Re: [libreoffice-users] Moving list items and re-numbering
Hi :) Don't worry about saying something is wrong or troublesome and then finding the best way afterwards. Just if you do fix your own issues please let the list know so that we don't keep trying to help solve an issue that you have already solved yourself. If something is not intuitive then it might help other people learn how to use LibreOffice better. Sometimes things might be more intuitive to people that haven't grown used to weird ways used by competitors, in which case it helps us anticipate questions other people might ask while they are migrating too. OpenSource has a reputation for rude answers such as Rtfm with no useful links or anything. However a lot of the gateway projects such as LibreOffice, Ubuntu, Firefox and others tend to be a LOT more friendly Regards from Tom :) From: Kevin O'Brien zwil...@zwilnik.com To: users@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Monday, 4 March 2013, 13:41 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Moving list items and re-numbering Thank you.
