[tdf-discuss] Feature Request: Locking pages
I had an idea for a feature in LibreOffice. Locking text to a page, or locking a page. So, if you want something on one page, and for it not to move down when you add something to a page above. If you run out of room on the page above it could add another page in, or something. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

I've a request for a new feature/improvement: in the default paths is not possible to set different paths for the different type of documents.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Feature request
I'll throw in a feature request/improvement of my own, since the conversation title is rather unambiguous. Unlike most (not all) LibreOffice feature requests that are inspired by Microsoft Office, mine is inspired by GIMP. I was working with a .xcf file in GIMP the other day, and it came time for me to export it. I went to File-Save As and changed the name from file.xcf to file.jpg and hit enter. Without me selecting .jpg from the list of file types, I got the jpg dialogue boxes (flatten image? Image quality, etc.), and it saved as a .jpg file, not as a .xcf file with a .jpg extension. Other than changing the extension on the file name, I didn't tell it to change the file type, it just knew. If I tried opening file.odt file in LibreOffice and did a save as and saved it with the name of file.doc without also changing the file type, I'd get an ODF file with a .doc file extension. Is there anyway of utilizing GIMP's Save As file extension recognition? That way, we would probably get less document.odt saved with a .doc file extension. (Feel free to replace .doc with the favorite non-ODF file extension of your choice. I'm not trying to start a Microsoft file format flame war, I'm just using examples that I use.) I should add that I don't want to change the default file format. I like ODF as my default. But occasionally, I have to save files in non-ODF format.

[tdf-discuss] Feature request - embed font
Hi. I have been a SO, OO, now LO user for many years. One area where I frequently encounter hassle is with layout changes due to different fonts on different PC's. Most of my documents are data sheets or manuals and include special fonts (LCD display, etc.) and even with standard fonts there can be problems. It would be very usefull if there was an option to embed a font in a document. Most recently I deleted my Arial font off my Mac and installed the Arial from my Suse because the Mac Arial had different characters and kerning. Embedding a font is a big bonus for a suite that wants to be truly system portable. steve -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
[tdf-discuss] Feature request: Improve administrative installation on Windows
Hi all, I'm currently working on a large scale implementation of LibreOffice. We are talking about 10.000+ users. One thing I have discovered is that the current multi language installation requires quite some extra effort to accomplish our goals. The default installation implements a large number of languages with English as the default. I thought it was supposed to default the Windows locale/language settings but it seems that it doesn't work. Another thing is that most of the machines are quite small and we would like to economize with disk space. To obtain only one language installed requires manipulation of the msi package (or by the use of a mst transformation file). Next upgrade will require that we once again create new msi files or mst files. An alternative solution is to install all the languages and then control the default language using an extension. We managed to install what we wanted, but it seems to me that it could be done easier. The installation mechanism supports parameters in the installation but the LibreOffice msi packages doesn't take these parameters to control language(s) to install. I would like to propose that the current Windows installation mechanism gets a makeover with the focus on administrative installation and administration of thousands of computers. Easy administration (or at least not difficult administration) is one of many decision parameters when a solution is selected. Currently I believe that LibreOffice is one of the most complicated in the marked. Just my two cents :-) Cheers, Leif Lodahl The Danish Team -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

Regards, Christoph After digging around, I think, I should be able to program the needed features (ToC, slide numbers matching custom slide show) on my own. I would prefer to use Python and PyUNO for this. Before I start, I would like to ask the list for giving me feedback for the following questions: 1. For generating a ToC I need to store somewhere, if the title should appear in the ToC or not. Where can I store this information? I found the Description and the Name tags I could use but I fear, that this will interact with other software also using these tags... 2. Maybe I want to add also an alphabetical Index linking to the most important keywords at the end of the presentation (remember, people will get a printed version of the slide show). Where can I store the information, that a specific word should appear in this Index? You know I see problem with using Description and Name tags. For an index it is again more complicate since a word itself has no Description tag. Using the Description tag of the object, in which the text appears, gives the problem, that deleting the text does not automatically delete the entry -- How can I detect in that case, that the word is deleted except doing a rescan all the time? 3. Is Python/PyUNO the good choice for programming this feature in Impress? Can you tell me Pro´s and Con´s? 4. What´s about the needed skills? Do you think, this project is feasible for someone who made up to now only very small standalone apps just for fun in Python?

It is not so handy in usage, that the Summary Slide contents is based on the selected slides, specially if you presentation contains up to 200 slides (the Summary should contain only the chapter slides, not each). 3. It is not dynamic. Since the presentation lives, very often we add slides, move them or delete some. That would mean, we have to create then always a new summary slide manually by collecting the title slides and must reformat it again ... Before asking on this list, I searched the Internet for a solution for my issues. I found a lot of similar requests from OOo and PowerPoint users. But it's hard for me, to give a number. Microsoft Support team created a VBA Macro to adress the page number on custom slide show issue in PowerPoint. So it seems, there are more people asking for it.

[tdf-discuss] Feature request for LibreOffice Impress
Hi, after following this mailing list for a while, today I want to ask for your opinion about two features I miss in Impress. The first feature is linked to the custom slide shows. To avoid several sildes with the same content, I use one big file as a container for all slides I need. Using custom slide shows allows then creating the topic depended slideshows I need. The problem is, that the automatic page side numbering is not able to handle custom slide shows. That means, that the page numbering of the slides are also used in the custom slide show. So you will see eg. after page 3 page 7 in the custom slide show. Since years I found no solution for this. I tried to create a makro but this is much harder for me than I thought in the beginning. Would be nice, if this feature would be also useful for others so that it makes sence to ask for an implementation in Impress. The second missing feature is support for automatic ToC- and Index-Tables as they are implemented so nicely in Writer. Why do I think, I need these two features? The silde shows I´m creating, having very often 100 to 200 slides. The topics are different but all refers about the same thing - so many slide are the same. To avoid versioning problems, the solution is the custom slide show. There are lot of people saying, that page numbers are bad style in slide shows. Maybe, but the attendees of my presentation always get a printed version of it to allow making notices. I tried without page numbers, but the trainees were not happy, because finding the good page when restart after a break is not easy is 200 slides without page numbers. So, in my mind, there is no other way for me than with page numbers. Since the slide show is also used as something like a reference guide or documentation, the trainees use it for their daily work. Therefore, having ToC and an alphabetical Index about the main keywords would be very helpful for them. Now maybe someone will say, Impress is not the tool for this, use X or Y. I tried several other software, but all I tested having more holes than Impress has: Writer is not good in creating slides and for presentation stuff - which is not surprising since it is made for documents containing mostly text. Scribus could be a choice- but does not support custom slide shows and having each page as a single file and create one master file which embed the single files is not supported (or to say it better, I was not able to get it work). LaTeX - Allows many things I need, but drawing is painful and since the slide show must also be used by my collegues, programming the presentation is not possible. What is your opinion? Do you agree that these two features could be helpful for others? Can you give me ideas, how to solve these issues in another way (I prefer in Impress but other software suggestions are also welcomed)? Chynte BTW: Congratulations for this nice mailing list. The spirit here is very friendly. I followed a lot of mailing lists in my life and I can tell you very often it more a war than a discussion ... -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

I am pretty sure that there won't be any changes like that going into the 3.3 branch anymore, as even the UI strings have been frozen now. THis is pretty much stabilization phase with the exciting stuff going on in the master development branch.
