Problems well ordered and qualified in BugZilla? (Was Re: [tdf-discuss] Re: strange page orientation problem)
Hi Gary, NoOp wrote (21-09-11 05:11) If 3.4.x then I *highly* recommend trying 3.3.4 instead. To me it seems that 3.4.x (3.4.3) is full of bugs and should never have been released at all, particularly with this statement: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/ quote LibreOffice 3.4.3 Final (2011-08-31) Safe for production use by most users and enterprises. /quote That statement is, at the very least (again IMO, but can be verified by the bug reports), wrong. Note: for anyone that disputes that, simply review the users list and bug reports - you'll find many issues regarding 3.4.x that are resolved by reverting back to 3.3.x. I know there are problems in 3.4 that are not present in 3.3. (and why). And what the situation should be: that all problems have been described in an issue and that the really annoying ones qualified as such and picked up by a developer. However, I have the impression that not all problems posted to users@ have been handled as such. Not sure though. Also I noticed some things mentioned as (serious) problem, turned out to be no or (just) minor annoyances (IMO). Furthermore, we are in a lucky situation compared with half a year ago: there are regular test builds for Windows also and devs are fixing windows specific issues... So, do you think it would be useful to check the problems reported on users@, check their status in BugZilla and if needed add them to the MostAnnoying gathering issues? Speaking for myself: I would be happy to help, but because of workload, it should be a process of weeks, rather than days..

[tdf-discuss] Re: strange page orientation problem

The label format in the template is user defined, 10,2 cm width and 6 cm height, portrait orientation. This used to work perfectly with OOo, but with LO, the print dialog suddenly shows the label in landscape orientation (that is 6cm width and 10,2 cm height). i have to go the the properties of the label printer, and change the orientation from landscape to portrait manually. so i have the impression tha the page orientation from LO is not passed to the label printer. this is rather annoying stuff, whicg can be worked arround, but is very confusing. jef peeraer You fail to mention which version of LO and which OS; can you please advise?
