I created a one-cell table and placed a compiled 'Alphabetic index' field in it 
so as to place the actual index off-centre on the page.

But when I right-click on the index to update the entries, the table context 
menu drops down, not the index context menu as expected.

Would it be possible to add entries for all nested objects to the context menu?

BTW, an attempt to search for previous reports of this issue failed.

While I appreciate your suggestion to post under Write, Calc, etc. I feel that 
it is a global problem which will be lost sight of if considered as related to 
particular apps.  I have posted this here partly so that others experiencing 
the 
same problem will find this issue and perhaps collectively we can converge on a 
reproducible scenario.

Additional note:
Also crashes when mixed ODF and MS Office format files are open.
Also crashes when Office files open and an ODF file is opened.

Keywords: save, save as, printing (selection), Windows win XP SP3, *.doc doc 
*.xls xls *.ppt, ppt

I am experiencing high levels of crashes when opening and editing Microsoft 
Office format files and saving them in the same format. In particular, I am 
editing *.doc and *.xls files.

Crashes occur when printing a selection, saving a file, closing a saved file 
when multiple files are open.  I have tried to reproduce this problem but can 
find not consistent pattern.

NOTE:  I previously had Star Office 8 and OOo 3.0.1 installed, then installed 
OOo 3.1.0 over the top. Crashes started occurring frequently.  I then removed 
SO 
8 and OOo 3.0.1 and 3.1, and reinstalled OOo 3.1, which reduced the frequency 
of 
crashes.

The reduction of crash frequency after reinstalling OOo makes me wonder whether 
registry entries were pointing to the wrong files -- just a hunch I cannot 
prove.

I second this proposal -- to be able to print just the Notes.  But I would also 
like the option to selectively switch on or switch off the filename, date-time, 
author options.  I would also like to be able to export the Notes to another 
file or append the Notes to an existing file containing just Notes.

Why do I want this?  I am marking student papers on-screen for a distance-
learning subject (once called 'correspondence school' in another age).  I would 
like to collect all the comments on the marked assignments into one file to 
determine what common issues are repeatedly encountered in order to modify the 
learning materials and provide the students with a post-mortem of an assignment.

I could not find this issue in a search but opened a new issue with:
"Currently *bold* and _underline_ automatically applies these char formats to 
the 
enclosed string.  Could this be enhance by implementing /italic/ as well?  
These

Could these be nested so that */_bold italic underlined_/* does the appropriate

I accidentally deleted the previous two comments, for which apologies.

I like the way the Note entries have been placed in the margin and the page
shrunk for printing, maintaining the page breaks.

I definitely do not like repeating the same page for all the reasons given above
by other people.  It would be better to continue the long Note on the next page
but make it blank, and you could even use the full width of the page to
accommodate the long Note and other Note entries on the same page.  Otherwise,
you may end up with a situation where a page is repeated two or more times in
additional to the original page.

I like the Note entries embedded between paragraphs but what about a long
paragraph with a Note anchor in the first line, or even several Note entries? 
Would the Note entries below the paragraph have a leader line to the anchor,
overlaid on the paragraph text?  What about spreading the lines so that each
Note is under the line containing its anchor?

The gathering of all the Note entries on the last page looks good.  As long as
they flow on continuously and are not broken into separate pages for each batch
of Note entries on a page.

[sw-issues] [Issue 94959] Notes improvements: format ting, options, styling, printing

2008-10-16 Thread hfinger
al size, in print it would shrink to the 
middle.

@  Notes Preferences or Options should also allow them to be printed in the
margin as they appear on screen, even if the page width has to be reduced to fit
on the paper.  This is what Word does.
>>> This is what we would do if we would have some more development capacity :-)
I already our plans (or better, my wishes) in issue 94514, that you filed, too.
>>> That was 2.4.1; 3.x is better.  Now I prefer edit tracking in-line (deletes,
inserts) and Notes in margin.

@  Leader lines from the marginal Note to the in-text anchor points should never
be superimposed on each other -- it is too difficult to trace.  Some  
suggestions:
  -- vary the leader pattern with dots, dashes, dot and dash chains
  -- vary the colour of the leaders and anchor points (but not the Notes)
  -- let the horizontal portion of leaders be above OR below a line
  -- combine all of the above if necessary
>>> I don't think that introducing more semantics to meta information in Writer
will solve that (think also of Smart Tags, spell checker, grammar checking, ...)
But of course, the anchors are not fully implemented yet (please refer to the
point describing the anchors for text selections). I'm sure there will be some
improvement in some of the future versions.
>>> Perhaps keep the background colour to indicate the reviewer, but change
border and anchor colour when leader lines clash?  Red border relates to red
anchor?  You would only need a small palette of repeating colours as leader line
clashes do not occur all the time.

In the UX team, we discussed the behavior of such anchor lines some time ago and
I created some mockups for that. Unfortunately, I haven't uploaded them to the 
wiki.

So, hfinger, thanks for your comments. I hope you didn't get the impression that
I just wanted to object your ideas ...

>>> It was es that offended me.

Have a nice evening,
Christoph

Well, I am having a nice sunny day!  You have a nice evening too.

Notes2 caught my eye.  Is this the new implementation of Notes that float as
balloons on the RH side of the page?  These RFEs apply exclusively to that
implementation.  By the way, I love these new Notes and the way that text edits
are kept separate from the Notes, which are really commentaries on the edits or
the text.
Bloody Word treats Comments (Notes) as equivalent to edits, so all your minor
deletions and insertions all end up as one or two character Comments, cluttering
the RH balloons with chaff so that it is impossible to distinguish the
commentaries from the trivia.
This job actually has to be supplied in Word format but I am doing it in OOo 3.0
because the Word Comments drive me nuts.  Fortunately, the distinction between
edits and commentaries round trips.
So I love my Notes but they will be even more usable with my suggestions
implemented.

Well, I could break this up into 12 issues but as some of them are codependent,
this would rather lose the thread of coherence that binds them all.  And they
are not bugs, but enhancement requests.  You are free to pick and choose the
ideas that you think are good.

It happens that I am doing a job that requires me to add extensive notes to 14
documents and the deficiences in the Notes implementation are becoming rather
obvious, the most annoying being the inability to set a default style and the
consequent overlapping of Notes on screen which are much larger than the one or
two words they contain.

I am 64 years old, there are many things to do before I die, I have a deadline
to meet with this job, and I have little time or patience to deal with the
bureaucratic heart that beats somewhere in everybody's chest.

I am well aware of "one problem, one issue" but in this case there are a series
of related issues.  If you seriously think I have the time to go through the
laborious process of entering this issue as 12 issues over and over, you are
sadly mistaken.

Thanks NOT for the encouragement of this volunteer who has contributed many bug
reports and RFEs to various open-source projects over the years.  I know well
which projects to devote my precious time in the future -- those that put ideas
and enthusiasm over narrow rules.

In OOo 3.0 release, the Notes functionality could be improved.
@  Notes could shrink in height to just enclose short comments.  Notes could
also automatically expand for longer comments and if the vertical space in the
margin allowed it, i.e. no or few competing sibling Notes.
@  A Preference or Option would allow you to set the default para style for
Notes.  (The current default style is derived from who knows where and is far to
big.)  You should also be allowed to apply para and char styles both as
anonymous over-rides or as named styles, e.g. char style Bold or Strong.
@  A Preference or Option would allow you to toggle the date or reviewer's name
to be revealed or concealed.  This would save space.
@  A right-click context menu item should allow you to select it to (a) copy it,
(b) cut it, or (c) delete it.  It is too difficult to select the anchor point to
carry out these operations.
@  A Preference or Option should allow a widthless vertical bar to indicate a
selectable anchor, much as FrameMaker does with the inverted-T anchor for index,
cross-reference targets, and other markers.
@  Clicking a Note outside the text area, say, on a border, should allow you to
select it, too.
@  A selected Note should show handles that can be dragged to change its height,
over-riding the default behaviour, even if it causes a vertical scroll bar to
appear and there is sufficient space to display the Note without resizing it. 
This resize should be able to be removed and the Note should then naturally 
resize.
@  Notes options should also allow them to appear in the RH or LH margin.
@  Notes Preferences or Options should also allow them to be printed in the
margin as they appear on screen, even if the page width has to be reduced to fit
on the paper.  This is what Word does.
@  Leader lines from the marginal Note to the in-text anchor points should never
be superimposed on each other -- it is too difficult to trace.  Some  
suggestions:
  -- vary the leader pattern with dots, dashes, dot and dash chains
  -- vary the colour of the leaders and anchor points (but not the Notes)
  -- let the horizontal portion of leaders be above OR below a line
  -- combine all of the above if necessary

@christophnoack:  The mockups are fine and are similar to but better than the
Word equivalent.  

I don't think the alternative of Notes embedded in a bulleted list are a problem
-- can't they just take on the formatting of the paragraph in which they are
embeded?  Do they have to be treated as a new para between the host text paras?

W.r.t. to overlong notes, or many notes on a page, perhaps several from
different reviewers pointing to the same para, may I suggest that you
temporarily increase the para spacing or line spacing to keep the referred-to
text in close proximity to the referring note.

I do not like the idea of repeating a page referred to be notes of greater
length than the page.  The reviewer may consider that the writer has
accidentally copied and pasted the same page twice.  Or a reviewer may see the
first presentation and consider that the associated note is the only one for
that page.

I don't think that there is any particular necessity to preserve the page
formatting next to the notes.  After all, this is only for review DRAFT, not for
final presentation.  Anything that keeps the notes in lockstep with the host
text is to be explored.

If pages are reflowed to accommodate Notes, you could insert a bar to indicate
where the page breaks are.  In fact, you could use something like Word's Normal
flow where page-by-page formatting is lost, and the whole document is like an
enormously long web page.

Oops!  I meant offer the user the alternative of marginal comments with leader
lines as in the screen capture OR in-line display/printing.  I did not mean to
only implement one of these methods; implement both but offer the user a choice.
 Word also opens a pane at the foot of the page and shows the user all the
Comments (Notes) on that page, and also allows them to be edited there.

This is not a particularly good example as the editor of the document has also
used highlighting and in-place change tracking.  An alternative method of
printing Notes (Comments) would be to show them in-line, perhaps demarcated by
square brackets [] and underlined or background coloured.

Word allows you to view Comments [OOo Notes] in the margin, reducing the page to
make room.  Leader lines link the Comment balloons to the text location to which
they refer.  You can also print Comments from this view.

OOo Writer allows you to print Notes on a separate blank page, but this wastes
far too much paper.  And it is difficult to relate the Notes back to their
location in the text.

It would be good if OOo Writer could display and print Notes:
(a) in-line in the text where they are positioned,

I recreated the /user folder as you instructed.
Then I launched OpenOffice.org 2.3.1 and set the preferred 1.6.0_03 JVM in the
Options dialogue. Then I closed OOo, relaunched it, and checked the Options
dialogue again.  The list of JVMs was blank but slowly filled up after about 15
sec delay.
The attachment OpenOffice2.org.zip contains /user (the new folder) and /user-bak
(the former folder).

Any task that calls the JVM -- launching OOo, using any tool that needs Java,
etc. -- causes an alert "OpenOffice.org requires a Java runtime to perform this
task. The selected JRE is defective ...", etc.

I just downloaded OOo 2.3.1 and upgraded from 2.3.  I have six JREs, 3 as
standalone JVMs and 3 include with JDKs.  They are version 1.6.0, 1.6.0_02, and
1.6.0_03.  When I open Tools > Options > OpenOffice.org > Java dialogue, the
list of installed JREs is blank!  After 20 seconds or more the list of installed
JREs slowly fills up.  I have chosen the user public JRE 1.6.0_03.  But if the
dialogue is closed and re-opened, the list is again blank and again fills 
slowly.

It is clear that somehow the location of the chosen JRE is lost, because the
"JRE defective" alert again appears when any JVM-dependent task is activated.

After the alignment of a cell was changed to allow word wrapping, the link from
a displayed Note to its home cell was displaced to the centre of the cell to the
upper-right diagonal (North-East, 1:30 o'clock) of the home cell.  (I have a
graphic of this behaviour but don't know how to attach it to this issue as there
doesn't appear to be any facility for doing so. Write to
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, not my profile email address.)

REPRODUCING PROBLEM

(1) Create a small spreadsheet.

(2) Insert text into four consecutive cells horizontally.

(3) In the third cell, insert a Note. Ensure the Note is visible.

(4) Move the Note below and slightly left so that the link to the red dot in the
upper-right corner of the home cell runs across the body of the cell. The Note
itself should not obscure the cell.

(5) Select the entire row in which the home cell is located.

(6) Choose Format > Cell and change the Alignment so that automatic word wrap is
enabled.

(7) Now attempt to select, move, resize or edit the content of the visible Note.
 The arrow-headed link now points to the centre of the cell diagonally to the
upper-right (NE, 1:30 o'clock) of the home cell.

(8) Select the cell to which the arrow now points and press Ctrl-x to cut it. 
The arrow jumps back to point to the red dot in the home cell.

Remember: email <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to get a graphic showing the
problem.

[sw-issues] [Issue 48308] New - Reference to a Calc worksheet not stored as relative path

This appears to be the same problem as issues 2948, 4790, 11624, 12143, and 
21091.

I am writing a report in OOo Write that cross-refers to specific worksheets in 
an OOo Calc spreadsheet, which I wish to implement as hyperlinks, so that if 
the 
user clicks on the hotspot, the referenced spreadsheet will open.  (The tables 
are too large to include in the text document as either an OLE or DDE link.)  
Here is what I do ...

1.  Select the words that are to be the hotspot.

2.  In the OOo Write document window, choose Insert > Hyperlink.

3.  Complete the Hyperlink dialogue:
Path =
file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Hedley%20Finger/
My%20Documents/Projects/tools_evaluation_comparisons.sxc 
(by clicking the Open button and navigating to the 
target document)
Target =
Editor Usability
(by clicking the Open the Target button and choosing  
the Editor Usability worksheet in the Target in Document 
dialogue)

4.  In the Hyperlink dialogue, click the Apply and Close buttons.

This produces a hyperlink with an absolute path.  The link works absolutely as 
expected when it is clicked -- the target spreadsheet opens to the correct 
worksheet.

The host text document and target spreadsheet are both in the same folder.  I 
intend to Zip them up to send to colleagues but the hyperlink won't work 
because 
my colleagues are likely to Unzip the archive to a different folder.  So, in 
this case, I want to replace the absolute pathname with a relative path, e.g. 
file://./tools_evaluation_comparisons.sxc, so that the link will work as long 
as 
both files are Unzipped to the same folder.

Trouble is, when I edit the pathname to turn it into a relative path, clicking 
the hyperlink produces this error message and the target spreadsheet does not 
open:

Error loading document file://./tools_evaluation_comparisons.sxc#Editor%
20Usability
Drive \\.tools_evaluation_comparisons.sxc does not exist.

 Please tell me that this is a horrible mistake and OOo _does_ know how to 
handle relative paths!

I read in the responses to one of the issues that OOo stores relative pathnames 
by default but displays these pathnames in the absolute format.  This is bad 
usability because the GUI does not match the reality.  It also misleads users 
into thinking that they can enter a relative path when the REALLY want that.  
Also, some simple tests involving moving files seem to indicate that the 
absolute path is stored in the doc.l

[Re-submitted as old version inadvertently selected]

In the Numbering/Bullets dialogue, neither the Bullets nor the Graphics tabs 
offer a check-box symbol (a square) to create a check list.  This is a 
surprising omission as check lists are a very common textual element in forms, 
questionnaires, and the like.
