If OpenOffice refuses to open, start TaskManager (Ctrl Shift Esc) and kill all 
soffice processes shown on TM's Processes tab.
In /File /Save As, you should select (from File type dropdown) to save as ODF 
text document .odt), and ensure that Automatic file name extension is 
checked.

Re: AOO 4.1.1 - any chance to solve issue 124107?

2014-06-17 Thread Yuzhen Fan
This issue occurs since version 3.4.0 under some special conditions, it is
not as serious as recent regression which occurs since 4.0.0 under common
conditions.

If we have no fix in hand or the fix we have is with risk, I will not
nominate it as candidate of 4.1.1 showstopper.

Re: Download to Google Chromebook

2014-06-17 Thread Marcus (OOo)
You can download the software to your Chromebook. But I think that is 
not your real intention.


Chromebooks [1] don't have a traditional operating system but the Chrome 
OS. As far as I know it is a special version of Google's Chrome browser.


To be honest, I don't know if OpenOffice can be installed on Chrome OS 
as I'be no experiences with this. OpenOffice is a desktop software 
developed for Windows, Linux or Mac. But Chrome OS is developed for 
web-applications, So, both don't fit together. But if you like you can 
try it. :-)

Question ad encoding of unoinfo java return string value

2014-06-17 Thread Rony G. Flatscher (Apache)
According to some older infos about the encoding returned by unoinfo[.exe] 
java the resulting
string starts with an indicator byte, where '0' indicates an ASCII encoding 
(and the paths are
delimited with '\0'), whereas '1' indicates UTF-16LE (and the paths are 
delimited with \0\0).

On German Windows (AOO 4.1) I see the encoding '1' (UTF-16LE), but the 
characters are not 16-bit
(UTF-16LE) encoded, but plain ASCII, however the paths get delimited with 
\0\0. OOo (e.g. 3.4.1)
would return encoding '1' (UTF-16LE) where each ASCII character is preceded by 
'\0'.

Clearly, an installation routine dealing with the returned string value of AOO 
gets confused, if it
was written with UTF-16LE in mind, working correctly on earlier OOo.

If the current encoding returned by AOO 4.1 on Windows is wrong, I would file a 
bug. If it is
correct, where is this particular encoding in AOO stated?

RFC ad possible presentation submission for ApacheCon EU

2014-06-17 Thread Rony G. Flatscher (Apache)
Having created an oxt in the past that adds a scripting language (ooRexx) to 
AOO as a macro language
taking advantage of AOO's Java based scripting framework, I have been wondering 
whether it may be
interesting for supporters of other scripting languages to learn how to do 
that, giving a
presentation along the lines Howto Turn Your Favorite Programming Language 
into an AOO Macro
Language Using AOO's Scripting Framework. 

The abstract might read something like: Apache Open Office (AOO) defines a 
scripting framework that
can be exploited to add any programming language to Apache OpenOffice as a 
macro language. This
presentation introduces the necessary overview and knowhow to become able to 
assess the effort to
add your own favorite programming language to AOO. Although the AOO scripting 
framework is
implemented in Java it is possible to add non-Java-implemented programming 
languages as demonstrated
with the programming ooRexx which is itself implemented in C++. In addition all 
scripting languages
that support Java's javax.script framework could be added to AOO using AOO's 
scripting framework.

One idea in this context would be to get maybe enough interested parties to 
even create an AOO
subproject that is aimed at supporting JSR-223 scripting languages out of the 
box. JSR-223
scripting languages are all those scripting languages that can bed used by the 
Java javax.script
framework.

Any comments, ideas, feedback to this idea?

Fwd: June 25th CFP Deadline for ApacheCon and CloudStack Collab Conference EU - Submit Now

2014-06-17 Thread jan i
Hi.

when we had Call for Papers earlier this year, everybody told me, dont
expect much, AOO is europe based.

Now we are getting close to deadline for ApacheCon Budapest.

Please submit talks
if you need help mail the list or me,
if you feel giving a talk might be different, no need to be nervous, we are
here now and later at the conference to help you.

Any talk will do, once the deadline is passed some AOO specialist will
look through the abstracts to see if they are ok, in case they find
something, you will be contacted so it can be corrected. That is also to
help you.

And finally please remember, giving a talk on apachecon might sound scary
(I gave my first 4 talks in Denver, so I have fresh experience in being
nervous), but in reality you will talk to a smaller audience, typically
highly motivated volunteers like yourself, so in the end  its a very
friendly environment.

Hope to see a lot you in Budapest !

rgds
jan I.

I don't know if you mean the 1) actual background of the cells or

If 1), select the cells and use Format - Background to change
background color of the cells.

If 2), select the cell(s) and use Format - Borders to change.

Re: Vorschläge zur zukünftigen Handhabung der dev-de-Liste

2014-06-17 Thread Jörg Schmidt
Hallo, 

 From: Guenter Marxen [mailto:guenter.mar...@gmail.com] 

 User-Anfragen in dev, Committer leiten die Antworten per PM 
 weiter, wenn 
 dies vorher vergessen wurde. Das ist kundenorientiert, kooperativ und 
 souverän. Und positiv für das Projekt und Produkt AOO!

Leider nein, denn es erschwert _objektiv_ die Arbeit. Warum das so ist hatte ich
ausführlich beschrieben.

  Über obenstehende Punkte sollten wir diskutieren, ggf. 
 Änderungen vornehmen
oder auch weitere Punkte hinzufügen und sobald uns alles 
 ausreichend
besprochen erscheint sollten wir kurz per +1/-1 die 
 Gültigkeit dieser
Punkte beschliessen und uns dann daran halten, wobei wir 
 zukünftig immer
wieder Änderungen vornehmen können/sollten wenn uns das 
 nötig scheint.
 
 So etwas fände ich schlecht. Dann könnte man alle paar Monate wieder 
 eine solche Diskussion führen. Letztlich ginge es immer 
 wieder wie das 
 Hornberger Schießen aus und die vielbeschworene Community wäre bald 
 reduziert oder keine Community (Gemeinschaft!) mehr.

??
Demokratische Entscheidungsfindung ist schlecht?

Diese Praxis hat bei de-ooo NICHT zu solcherlei Problemen geführt sondern sich 
im
Laufe der Jahre bewährt.

 Meine Meinung:
 
 Sinnvolle Regeln (wie die Netiquette) ja, diese aber nicht zu 
 spezifisch/detailliert und sie nicht rigide durchsetzen wollen. In 
 Sonderfällen (ohne Definition!) Toleranz.

Und EXAKT darum geht es mir.

Allein entspricht das dem oben Gesagten, weil es ja bei 'zukünftigen Änderungen'
nur darum geht deutlich zu machen das jeder hier gleiche Rechte hat, also nicht
diejenigen die heute hier zufällig anwesend sind die Regeln für alle Zukunft
beschliessen und wer nächstes Jahr zu uns stösst kein Recht mehr hat etwas an 
den
Regeln zu ändern.

Ich halte genau das eigentlich auch für eine Selbstverständlichkeit denn auch 
z.B.
die Gründungväter der Buzndesrepublik haben ja 1949 nicht ewig währende Gesetze
beschlossen.

  Die gültigen Punkte sollten wir auf der Webseite online 
 stellen damit sie einsehbar sind.
 
 Falls Du (Jörg) damit Hilfestellungen und Informationen für die User 
 meinst, OK! Aber bitte kein Strafgesetzbuch.

Nicht ansatzweise geht es um ein Strafgesetzbuch sondern ich habe sogar 
bessere
Regelungen für Anwender vorgeschlagen als Michael, der lediglich starr darauf
beharrt es käme nur seine Vorgehensweise in Frage.

Mann erkläre mir bitte was daran benutzerunfreundlich sein soll wenn ich
vorgeschlagen habe genau der Idee der 1-Klick-Lösung zu folgen die Michael so
wichtig ist, zumal ich bereits vorgeschlagen habe das ich bereit bin die
anfallende Arbeit zu übernehmen.
_Zumindest_ sollte man dadurch die dev-Liste frei von Mails halten die hier
inhaltlich nicht hergehören.

Die dev-Liste wurde genau für die projektinterne Kommunikation müberhaupt erst
geschaffen. Das haben wir bewusst getan, was macht es für einen Sinn das jetzt
wieder zunichte machen zu wollen?


Gruß
Jörg

Das erklärt zwar nichts, außer dass Du Regeln brauchst, statt Dich
Deines Verstandes zu bedienen.

Das ist zwar leider ad personam, aber wer so austeilt wie Du in der
Vergangenheit, muss auch einmal eine persönliche Kritik einstecken können.

Ich habe auf eine solche Diskussion wahrlich keine Lust.

 Und fordere Dich auf:
 
 Höre mit deinem destruktiven Handeln (sowohl beim Moderieren als auch beim 
 Diskutieren) endlich auf.
 

Destruktiv haben hier diejenigen gehandelt, die permanent ad personam
argumentierten, statt zur Sache - und zwar auch dann noch, nachdem ihnen
naheliegende Konsequenzen ihres Handelns vor Auge geführt wurden.

Respektvoller Umgang miteinander geht anders.

Die Konsequenzen, die sich im Übrigen daraus ergeben, dass dies eine
öffentlich archivierte Mailingliste ist, mag sich jeder selbst vorstellen.
