It is *insane* to have to a full repair *installation* when the only thing that I want to change/repair is the file associations. A repair *installation* takes *minutes*... a repair/reset/modification to file associations would take mere seconds. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

THESE ICONS ARE BROKEN. PERIOD. AND THAT MAKES THIS A DEFECT. @mh said: no need to have a dispute about issue type and priorities. this topic is clearly on the current agenda and will be worked on the public mailing lists. Please point to JUST ONE example of how the seriousness of this issue is 'clearly on the current agenda and will be worked on the public mailing lists'? I have not seen even ONE serious statement from any OpenOffice.org developer in an official capacity, much less anything from Sun/Oracle -and no, comments in here from someone who may or may not be a developer or employee of Sun/Oracle don't count. @of said: Can we get rid of 'community members' who call other people brainless f*cker? I'm not willing to work together with such users. the truth sometimes is painful. While I would not use such language, I agree with its sentiment. Whoever made this decision should absolutely and unequivocally be FIRED. Remember: We are just talking about icons! Rotflmao! This actually sounds like something the one who made such a brain-dead decision would say... so was it you? - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

You said that things were changing for the better. I have been waiting patiently, but have seen no evidence to support your claim. Sorry, but BP has been doing a better job of handling the Gulf Oil debacle than Oracle/OOo developers have of handling this screw up with the icons. How about a FORMAL STATEMENT from someone at Oracle? Or at least from one of the lead OOo developers? I have said it before, but I'll now put my money where my mouth is: I'll wager $1,000 that this issue was 'confirmed by votes' faster than any issue in the history of OOo's development (40 MINUTES), and that it garnered 100 votes (less than 5 DAYS), then again 200 votes (a little over one MONTH), faster than any previous issue as well. If that doesn't warrant at least a formal statement from someone admitting the mistake and promising action, then nothing does. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The fact is, it would only take any half-competent graphics artist an hour to colorize the new icons. It is the political red tape that is preventing this from simply happening. What is needed is someone that can make a command decision without requiring a 'consensus' of some brain dead 'committee'. And yes - if you hadn't noticed, I loathe politics, and political correctness, both of which, I'm sorry to say, OOo is massively infected with. @tommy27 If you read this thread, and my comments, you sill clearly see that most people do indeed like the new icons *except* for the lack of color. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE. What infuriates me the most about things like this is how totally unnecessary it is. The solution is easy: 1. GO BACK TO THE OLD ICONS WITH THE NEXT POINT RELEASE, and 2. Start the process over again for redesigning the icons, taking into account the fact that bw icons are NOT ACCEPTABLE. There is absolutely NO reason that the above cannot be done for the 3.2.2 release (much less the 3.3 release), save one: THE DECISION MAKER(S) DON'T CARE. Well, guess what? As of now, I don't care either. I am now in the process of working on migrating our entire office over to KOffice. Since we're on windows, and KOffice isn't entirely stable on windows yet, it may not be able to happen in the next few months, or even the next year, but it will happen - unless by some miracle things change drastically with the OOo development process prior to KOffice being ready for prime time on windows. So long, OOo devs, and thanks for all the fish! - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I don't mind the ODF being there *for ODF files*, but it si far less important than simply getting the colors back. Even though I like the older icons less than the design of the new ones, I'd much rather 3.2.2 simply revert to the old icons, than continue debating on the newer ones. The debate on the newer ones can then continue until a reasonable consensus is reached *that includes a lot of input form users and voters in this bug*. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Do a query on all open issues with more than 100 votes. Then go read all of the comments for some of them. The fact is, the OOo development process doesn't really care what those of us in the OOo user community want or think. I'm not saying all of the *developers* are like that, but the *process* *creates* *the* *condition* - and now we have these shiny new politically correct 'icons' we are now stuck with for ... how long? Only time will tell. Not to mention the fact that the issue with the most votes currently (468) is 8.5 years old, still marked as 'NEW', and to add insult to injury, is *already* *fixed* (in the go-oo code base). Shall I bring up the fact that there is still no true OOo community as was promised by Sun from day one, just a Sun (now Oracle?) dictatorship? Trust is something that must be earned, and the OOo developercommunity process has not earned much of anyone's trust, and for good reason. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Then I'd do what other open source projects have done - have an open *contest* where *anyone* can submit designs for new icons, post links everywhere, and let the OOo user base vote on them. I think the main point though is, these icons should *never* have been changed like this without a *lot* of inquiries on the user lists and elsewhere, consulting with usability experts - who would have, of course, nixed the idea of colorless icons in a microsecond. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I really like the new *patterns* on the new icons. 2. The monochromatic aspect has *got* to go. 3. What is up with the 'ODF' label on NON-ODF MICROSOFT file formats (.doc, .xls, .ppt, etc)? That is not just ugly, it is plain *wrong*. I hope the devs are reading this bug report, as I have been forbidden by my boss (when I showed this to him this morning) from installing this update on any of our 60+ windows workstations until this is fixed, which sucks because that means we don't get any new bug fixes or functionality enhancements until then, and as slow as OOo has been to make changes, this might be a while. Please, guys, you changed these in a minor revision bump, you can bring back the different colors in 3.2.2, can't you? Like I said in #1 above, I really do like the new icons *except* for the lack of color. Oh, and what is up with making a major change like this in a minor update revision?

I think that makes a lot of sense. I agree - to a point. And if you will read this Feature Request, you will see that this is exactly how I had envisioned this working - with the addition that, since OOo is CAPABLE of doing this evaluation, AND because it is capable of making the necessary registry changes, then it only makes sense that this functionality should be made available in such a way as to be EASILY MANAGED. Meaning, RECORD the CURRENT registry settings PRIOR to making the changes, and provide a simple mechanism for MANAGING these registry settings. Removing configuration options where the application is able to handle that itself reasonably is basically a good idea. I agree... Especially if data is available that proofs that the configuration setting is misunderstood by many users. Again I agree... I also understand that expert users might want to configure this by themselves differently. This is a valid request, though IMHO not one with a high priority. I disagree - VEHEMENTLY. While I would agree if the functionality were not ALREADY THERE, removing EXISTING functionality - in essence, DUMBING DOWN an application - just because the WAY it is currently implemented is confusing to SOME users, is totally RIDICULOUS. Perhaps someone can provide this as an extension? That would be perfectly acceptable, but the main problem that I have with this is THE FUNCTIONALITY ALREADY EXISTS. Why should someone else have to reinvent the wheel? Just to be clear... I don't have a problem with the fact that the ability to choose the file associations at install time was removed. I have a problem with the fact that NO MECHANISM WAS PROVIDED TO TAKE THE PLACE OF THIS LOSS OF FUNCTIONALITY. At a minimum, the devs THEMSELVES - specifically, the one(s) that arbitrarily and unilaterally decided to remove this CRITICAL functionality should do it NOW. IMMEDIATELY. Am I pissed? VERY. Why? BECAUSE WHOEVER DID THIS JUST CAUSED OUR BOSS TO DECIDE TO SWITCH TO MSO IF THIS IS NOT FIXED PRIOR TO OUR UPGRADING TO VERSION 3.0. So, if this isn't fixed, OOo just lost an 80+ installed base, just because some dev somewhere decided they knew better than the people actually USING OOo. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I didn't 'accuse' or 'insult' anyone my friend - and I don't think I was even rude - I simply pointed out a somewhat painful fact. Code freeze for OOo3.0 already passed some time ago Well, not *that* long ago... 4 months (April 2008), according to the link you provided. So... code freeze happened in April 2008, and the patch for this functionality was originally uploaded in May of *2007* - 9 *months* (almost a full *year*) before the code freeze, and 8 *months* before the feature freeze. Not only that, according to this thread, it was integrated in ooo-build in October of 2007, a full 6 *months* before the code freeze. So, how much time, exactly, do the devs need before merging a patch into the official build that has as many votes as this one has, *and* has a *working patch* that someone was willing to write to implement it? and only show stoppers are being fixed now. Yes, this patch should had been reviewed and maybe integrated earlier, but now it is too late for OOo3.0 Too late because the OOo devs are extremely unresponsive to user requests for features they (the devs) don't deem 'important', *even when a patch is provided*. This (the official OOo devs being slow and often unresponsive to accept patches from 'outside' devs) is a well known fact, and the primary reason that Novell started the go-ooo offering. Don't shoot the messenger... maybe your time would be better spent *listening*. I'm a *long* time OOo user - 7+ years in fact (we used Staroffice 5.2 before changing to a pre 1.0 version of Openoffice.org) - and Admin who rolls it out on all 60+ machines in our office - and I *do* appreciate very much the effort involved with developing and providing OOo - but there is also a very large level of frustration with OOo development (see above). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

THE REPAIR OFTEN FAILS. PERIOD. Also, the KLUDGE of 'fixing' them by 'right-click', 'Open-with', check box 'Always use this program...' simply does not work for all situations. One MAJOR issue is with TEMPLATES. If I do this for a template, it then OPENS templates just as if it were a normal document, instead of creating a new blank document BASED on the template. Also, with this as part of the GUI, it would be very easy to not only repair file associations, but to RESET THEM TO WHAT THEY WERE BEFORE OOo WAS INSTALLED. Of course - all I can do is beg someone who is in a position to do something about this to see the value... it is just very frustrating to know that this problem - which is a very major hassle when it rears its ugly head - could be so easily fixed, if the ones who know how to fix it would simply create a simple UI to let us lowly users do it with a mouseclick or two...

The 'File Association Repair' only *attempts* to reset them - it does not check/repair permissions if the perms on the registry settings that store them get muffed, nor does it report a failure to properly set them if it fails - and this has happened to me at least 4 or 5 times in the years that I have been using OOo. I'm *not* saying that it was OOo that muffed them - but I *am* saying that if they can be repaired manually (by changing perms), then they can be repaired automatically (as long as the repair attempt is run by a user with admin rights). There is no reason that a properly coded FAM couldn't test if current user has admin rights, and if so, it is 'enabled' in the GUI - if not, it is greyed out, with a message saying that this functionality requires being logged in as a user with admin rights. If the User has admin rights, then the FAM could easily test if required registry settings exist - if not, create them - then test if the perms on them are correct - if not, reset them - then, change the File Associations to whatever the user is requesting. Of course, if the filesystem itself is corrupted, then there is nothing that OOo can or should do about that, except maybe provide an error message to this effect. Lastly, I have had a *lot* of cases where I would like to be able to easily switch back and forth the Microsoft Office associations between MSO (or whatever they were set to before the OOo install) and OOo (including proper Template behavior) - but OOo doesn't record their previous state, so there is no way to do this. Providing this ability directly in the GUI preferences will only instill a new level of confidence with people who want to test OOo out side by side with MSO. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

There is absolutely no reason why OOo should not be able to manage these associations after it is installed. My problem apparently was caused by permissions problems on the registry settings. My argument is, if these can be fixed manually, by changing the permissions, there is no reason that an OOo FAM could not *also* handle permissions problems - again - as long as the User had Full Admin Rights... When you install OOo on Windows you are usually doing this for all users. Then the setup application registers the file associations for all users. Yes - all of which is exactly how the FAM would/should work... The file association manager in OOo will not be able to access these settings! Eh? Why not? Oh - re-reading my original post, I didn't make it clear that this functionality would only be available if the user trying to make use of it was logged on with Admin Rights... this is obvious, so I didn't specifically mention it... Instead of this it will try to set something for the current user. This will rather screw up things than fix them. Not if they are logged on with Admin Rights - and again, there is no reason that OOo couldn't simply detect this, and display a message (that this functionality requires being logged n as a User with Full Admin Rights) if a User who does not have full Admin Rights tries to access the FAM... A file association manager inside OOo does not make sense at all and especially on Vista is a No-No. It makes *perfect* sense, due to its nature (a full Office Suite that has the ability to take over File Associations of another Office Suite) - even in Vista... As I said - I do understand that this ability must be limited to a User who is logged in with Administrative Rights, and that changes affect all users (just as they do at install time). Again, not *one* argument I have ever heard against having a File Associations Manager built into OOo makes any sense to me... - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

That is a silly statement, anyway - the Multi-User Installer *itself* *requires* Admin Rights... so why is *that* ok, but not to have a related function that also requires it? Besides - if OOo can be installed as an ordinary user, then it can manipulate file associations as that ordinary user in the same way. It does so *now*, doesn't it? This isn't rocket science... it is very simple... OOo allows for installation on a Windows machine in two different modes: Multi-user (requires Admin Rights) or for Single User. If OOo can correctly set the file associations at install time, for each of these two modes, it should be able to MANAGE these changes as well. It should be smart enough to know *how* it was installed (as an Admin, for 'All Users', or as a normal user, only for that user). The FAM should then behave in accordance with how it was installed - meaning: 1. If it was installed by an Admin in Multi-user mode, then it should require Admin rights to manipulate File Associations - just like it requires Admin Rights to install/uninstall it. 2. If it was installed in Single-User mode, then the FAM should behave accordingly (however OOo handles single user installation File Association modifications currently). - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I am taking the time to create this Issue/Enhancement Request after being bitten by this problem *again*. It has happened to me at least 5 or 6 times in the years I've been using OOo, and, although it doesn't happen very often, when it does, the ony way I have found to fix it is to reinstall Windows, and, in my opinion, this is just not acceptable. Recently I again had a problem where OOo lost its file associations - for its *own* file types, not MSO file types - and nothing I did was able to repair them. A reinstall/repair of windows, does, however, every time. First - the usual recommended method of 'right-click, open with...' is totally unusable for me anyway, because it will not work for the Template file associations - when templates are re-associated this way, from that point on, OOo will not treat them as it should treat templates (copy contents of template into new blank document, initiate prompt for input fields), it just opens them, as if I had right-clickopened them. All this functionality would have to do is: 1. Reset the file associations for all OOo file types (including templates) so that they work properly with OOo, (since OOo currently is capable of properly associating its own files upon installation, it should be trivial to add a button somewhere in the Preferences (maybe on the 'General' prefs, or could even be on its own - I am attaching a screenshot of how it could look on the 'General' prefs) that would simply re-associate all of the OOo file types with OOo) 2. If the user elects *not* to allow OOo take over the file associations for MSO files at install time, provide a button that takes them over - and records their current settings as per #3 below - just as if the user had elected to let OOo take them over at install time, if the user later decides they like OOo enough to do so, 3. If the user elects *to allow* OOo to take over the file associations for MSO files at install time (or does so per #2), record the current file associations, so that the user can easily reverse the settings if desired, 4. Provide a simple interface (see attached screenshot for an example of how simple this interface could be) that allows the user to do #1 anytime it may become necessary, and a way to switch MSO file associations back and forth (between being associated with OOo, and what they were before/when OOo was installed). It would also be very nice if these file associations could be set on a per-user basis, but I don't know if that is even possible in Windows. Thanks for listening...

[sw-issues] [Issue 70851] Input Fields prompted for TWICE (double prompted)

The issue is, once the bug is triggered, whenever you initiate the prompt for Input Fields (either using 'ctrl-shift-F9' or when dbl-clicking on a template), it prompts for all of the fields, then does it AGAIN - so, prompts for all of the fields TWICE. Interestingly, deleting ALL of the Input Fields from both the Header and Footer results in all of the Fields still being prompted for (even though there are none there), but this time only once. What I did to reproduce it was: 1. Modify the 'Default' Page Style of the newly created document to contain Headers and Footers, then place Input Fields into them. Save it. 2. Create a new Page Style based on the 'Default' (which should be the current selection) by using the 'New Style from Selection' option in 'Styles and Formatting' 'Page Styles'. 3. Apply the newly created Style by dbl-clicking it. 4. Initiate the prompt for Input Fields ('ctrl-shift-F9'). 5. You should be dbl-prompted for the fields. NOTE: this bug does NOT trigger (at least it didn't for me) if you create the Page Styles you want to use and apply them BEFORE you add the Input Fields to the Header/Footer. In other words, it should be reproducible by simply copying the 'Default' page style to a custom one, then changing the current Page Style to the newly created custom one. I will attach three sample documents (templates are affected the same way), one that doesn't exhibit the bug (before I changed the Page Styles), one that DOES exhibit the bug (AFTER I changed the Page Styles), and one that I deleted ALL of the Input Fields from AFTER the bug was triggered, which still prompts for all of the Input Fields, but this time only once. I have not been able to 'fix' a document once the bug is triggered. In fact, deleting EVERYTHING in a broken document results in ALL of the Input Fields that WERE there being prompted for ONCE. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Being relegated to using 2.0.2 for the next 6+ months because of this one small bug that most likely is easily fixed is not something I want to have to try to sell my boss on. It was hard enough to get him to be ok waiting for 2.1 (2 months?), once I was able to get this bug 'accepted', verified, and targeted. The fact is, there are a lot of people here in the office that look for any excuse to push for a switch to Microsoft Office - I'm sure you are familiar with the type... It is because OOo has worked 'good enough' that the boss has been ok with staying with it (we've been using it since about 1.0.3). This is the first real painful bug that we have experienced - but for some people, that is all it takes. Anyway, my main concern is to keep the boss happy - but when he comes to me and asks why he is still on 2.0.2, after reading about the speed improvements with 2.1+, and I have to tell him its because if I upgrade him, his Forms won't work right - well, that's just a conversation I'd rather avoid, if you get my meaning... - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I'm no longer holding out much hope that it will get fixed for 2.0.4 (since it's not even marked as confirmed), which means I will have no choice but to revert everyone to 2.0.2 until it DOES get fixed. Very disappointing indeed. This is the first serious bug that I have ever encountered with OOo, that is apparently being completely ignored by the developers. A serious userland issue like this - especially one that is most likely a very simple fix - shouldn't require lots of votes just to get the attention of a developer. The fact is, this bug makes OOo look VERY BAD to people who try to use simple Input fields on their forms. Charles Marcus I.T.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=66990 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Sep 29 13:25:18 -0700 2006 --- Many, many thanks!! I'm very glad to hear that someone is going to be looking at this... But when you say 'in the next 2.0.4', do you mean the fix probably won't make it into 2.0.4 final? I hope that isn't what you meant, but if so, as long as it will get fixed by 2.0.5, I guess I'll survive... Thanks again!

[framework-issues] [Issue 69612] 2.0.4 RC2/Sun provided bui ld calls home without asking
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=69612 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Sep 21 03:34:12 -0700 2006 --- I'm confused... I saw a mention that this existed somewhere in 2.0.3, but I don't see it anywhere, nor in the help. Is this an actual online update feature? Or is this *solely* a *notification* feature. If the former, then this will be very welcome, once the bugs have been worked out, and I'll be happy to test it in our office and provide feedback. However, if this is *only* a *notification* feature, then I really don't see what all the fuss is about. Just a simple notification about the auto-update feature before the install, along with a way to turn it off, should suffice, but I surely don't see why this should hold up the release of 2.0.4. I'm much more concerned that simple UI bugs, like [url=http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=69612]this one[/url], get fixed (still not even marked as confirmed, much less fixed in 2.0.4rc2). This has been plaguing our office since we updated to 2.0.3, and I have heard many loud complaints about how that other office application doesn't have problems like this from those who complained the loudest when we took the other one away. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Anyway, in my haste, I copied the wrong issue, and now I can't change it? The bug I meant to refer to is 66990 - the one where input fields on forms are BROKEN, BROKEN, BROKEN. The first fields works fine, but from then on, you have to switch between mouse and keyboard for every one, which is more than just irritating for forms that have lots of fields on them. Anyway, I really hope that this gets fixed in 2.0.4, otherwise I'm going to have to revert 40+ machines to 2.0.2, and I am not relishing that thought. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

This is a pretty inconvenient one too. I didn't catch this before upgrading about 40 computers over a weekend. Also, this still isn't fixed in 2.0.4rc2. Is this planned to be fixed in 2.0.4 final? If not, I'm going to have to roll some of our boxes back to 2.0.2 until it is fixed. Otherwise, many thanks for OOo - it has really saved us a lot of money in our small office! - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
