I haven't looked at the code, but it is extremely unlikely. I don't know what cross platform C++ library LO is using, but let us say either Qt or CopperSpice soley for the the sake of conversation. I do this in my RedDiamond editor package on SourceForge which uses CopperSpice (Qt fork). I don't allow multiple instances to be running but I do allow multiple windows. Each window has a group of tabs. (I will upload screen shot so you don't have to read code.) The RDSingleton object creates however many main windows were open last time and the window creation process loads all previously open files and buffers. The "Window" menu item is tracking instances of MainWindow which is derived from QMainWindow. The tabs each contain an instance of EdtEditWidget. To implement even simple first-level tab support like I have in RedDiamond one would need to rip out the "central widget" for the Writer main window and stuff it into a DocumentEditWidget then they would have to put a QTabBar as the only thing in MainWindow below the menu. Instead of directly communicating with whatever that single document object was, the main window class would basically need to be gutted to always connect signals and slots between each DocumentEditWidget. Whenever something was triggered it would need to connect with/operate on the DocumentEditObject in the current visible tab. Actually, now that I think of it you probably want to look at Example2 of my Scintilla fork to CopperSpice. https://sourceforge.net/projects/csscintilla/ Multiple tabs and an incredibly stripped down edit widget. The mainwindow.cpp file is under 500 lines and you really only care about the first 100. If you are on a Debian based Linux distro you can install the .debs for CopperSpice and CsScintilla from the Files section, then unzip the source file and run the script to build the examples so you can see it run. I'm not trying to talk down to you, it sounded like you wanted to learn. Doesn't matter what GUI toolkit they are using, conceptually this is how you have to do it. Kind of shocked when I looked to see they have their own VCL thin wrapper around native stuff. Zinc tried that years ago. I wrote a few books on it.

"Would be > just the perfect bug for me to work on, incremental and challenging" :). Wl Before you dive into coding, you need to look at the comments someone hid claiming they have no value when they have near limitless value to one who is going to look into this. First, you have to know what "this" is. StarOffice which was a predecessor of OpenOffice whose code became Libre Office had one tab per document way back with version 5.2. Lotus Symphony for 32-bit Ubuntu 8.x also had tab interface and the Navigator. That code was returned by IBM to OpenOffice and by extension Libre Office. The Navigator made it into LO, the tabbed interface did not. 32-bit Symphony can be found here: https://www.logikalsolutions.com/wordpress/sdm_downloads/lotus-symphony-32-bit-for-ubuntu-8-04/ You can see how to set up Ubuntu 8 32-bit and get the download link for Symphony here: https://www.logikalsolutions.com/wordpress/information-technology/lotus-symphony/ That will give you a good idea how the one-tab-per-document functionality previously worked with a codebase ancestor. If you want to try to identify where/when the code was checked into Apache OpenOffice from IBM you can dig through this message thread. This might have been lost as part of the Java purge though. There is another bug which gets mentioned much but I don't know the number. That is the one that Tom, I, and many others wish existed. That "this" is Lotus WordPro with tabbed sections and divisions ___within___ a document and a multi-tabbed document interface. Very difficult to describe to one who hasn't used it. Kind of like trying to describe what salt tastes like to someone that has never had any. You can read about it and see screen shots here: https://www.logikalsolutions.com/wordpress/information-technology/thank-you-for-your-future-abandonware/ Do a Web search for "Lotus SmartSuite." There are "used software" places selling it. eBay, Amazon, even Offer-Up. https://offerup.com/item/detail/ee98975a-b2c4-3f55-8b5c-83c94c909e8a I see that one "reduced" it to $10 from $20. You really need to use the software for a bit to understand __how__ it functioned. Under the hood is different from the UI. It's the UI and single file capability everyone is talking about. After you've researched both of those you can decide which "this" you wish to work on. You will at least have a much better idea about how to implement without blocking any future enhancement. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I am working on other patches, so may take a month or so to make some time. But yes I have it in my hit-list. How I imagine solving it: Suppose that the UI side is taken care of, then isn't opening a document in a new tab same as clicking on some document from the startcenter (or opening a new document), and just showing a box(tab) with it's name type and maybe save state. And Closing a tab would be same as clicking on the cross button on the top right corner. And talking about the UI, Notebookbar's "tags" like file, home etc,is the closest analog to tabs I see in LIbreoffice's UI, and studying and modifying that so as to dynamically create those "tags", but for files, with a cross button on the right side, shouldn't be that complicated (maybe).

Weeel, I paid money for a 5-user license of Textmaker not all that long ago because the free version didn't support running page headers/footers and a few other things. I do not pay for or use their Cloud/online stuff. OnlyOffice gives away the desktop editors/software for free and sells subscriptions to their cloud/online version used by companies. They did a bang-up job on the desktop editors which run on Linux and many other platforms and they really focused on the collaboration aspect when they went to the cloud services so OnlyOffice is pretty well funded with lots of new features. It appears LibreOffice online was a complete bust. https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-online/ I'm old so please forgive me if the gray cells cross something but . . . StarOffice 5.2 had _a_ multi-tab feature (which might have been multiple documents) StarOffice was the predecessor to OpenOffice, was it not? Somewhere in the middle between OpenOffice and Oracle's consumption of SUN Microsystems IBM took the OpenOffice code base and created Lotus Symphony (not to be confused with the MS DOS version of Lotus Symphony) which actually supported multiple tabs. https://www.logikalsolutions.com/wordpress/information-technology/lotus-symphony/ After or about the time there-of the creation of LibreOffice IBM decided the had the new editor they wanted for Lotus Notes and they released the Lotus Symphony code back to the project. So it's not really a "new feature" request but more of an excavate and find out how this got lost request. The dirty little secret about funding OpenSource projects is that you have to have a solid code base prior to asking for support contracts and large donations.

There are many times I am tempted to set up an OS/2 Warp machine so I can have Lotus SmartSuite again. Thankfully I'm writing more software than books right now. The last book I wrote with LO is my book on Emacs. I had to use Craigslist to find an editor that would use LO and Linux Mint. That was before Christmas. After posting this I'm going to fire them because they are still not done. For previous books there was always someone on ServiceScape that would do it and give me a professional editing job in just a couple weeks. Nobody on ServiceScape will touch LO anymore and that is the largest pool of quality freelance editors I have found in my 30+ years of writing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Hi Roland, What we are experiencing here is the downside of the open source economics model. You give the code away for free, then hold the user hostage for corrections and enhancements. And the developers do deserve to be paid for what they do. Unfortunately, individuals can not afford to to put the developers on their payroll. So this very, very legitimate request gets ignored year after year after year. I personally use the wildly abandoned Word Pro, which runs circles around LO, and LO when I have to share things with customers. If I would have to describe LO in a single word, I'd have to say it would be "awkward". Division tabs would go so, so far to improve that complaint, but unless someone with deep pockets sets forward, don't hold your breath. -T -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Tabs on libreoffice should do the same thing.. be able to recall a session and open things were one left off.. this would be especially useful for when working on a project with several related documents.. and save us time opening each document separately, which can be a drag when you're working on a dozen different documents that all belong together.. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37134 --- Comment #80 from Roland Hughes --- Ummm... You seem to have removed and closed too many things. "Tabbed pages in documents" refers to the Lotus WordPro ability to have tabbed divisions ___within___ a document. Authors and researchers use this to group chapters, TOC, Index, research notes, etc. Tabs could be flagged to be included in print or not. Same with export to other file types like PDF. All of these tabbed divisions exist within a single document. At a higher level, yes, the tabs you speak of (one tab per document) also existed. I don't have WordPro installed on any machine right now as I'm using Linux on many machines, but yes, a different tab size/style/color/position was used to ___switch between__ documents. Tab != Tab I guess we need to use the following vernacular DocumentTab DivisionTab -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37134 Wladimir Kirianov changed: What|Removed |Added CC||wladef...@gmail.com --- Comment #79 from Wladimir Kirianov --- I would like to create a small summary of the research, mockups and so on that have been done this topics. I will also incorporate my own arguments in here: **Why I need tabs** I use LibreOffice Writer for various purposes, such as writing reports, articles, letters, and notes. I often need to work on multiple documents at the same time, compare them, copy and paste content between them, or refer to them for information. However, without tabs, I have to open each document in a separate window, which clutters my desktop, consumes more memory, and makes it harder to navigate and manage them. Tabs would solve this problem by allowing me to switch between documents by clicking on the tabs, drag and drop tabs to reorder them, close tabs with a single click, or open new tabs with a keyboard shortcut. Tabs would also save my session state, so that I could reopen all the documents I was working on when I close LibreOffice Writer. Tabs would not only improve my productivity and efficiency, but also my user satisfaction and enjoyment. Tabs would make LibreOffice Writer more modern, intuitive, and consistent with other applications that I use regularly. For example, the Adobe suite uses tabs extensively for its applications such as Photoshop. Tabs would also give me more control and flexibility over how I work with documents. **How tabs could work** Tabs could be implemented as an optional feature that users can enable or disable in the settings. Tabs could also have some customization options, such as color, position, size, shape, or icon. Tabs could be compatible with existing features of LibreOffice Writer, such as split view, zoom level, or document properties. To illustrate how tabs could look like in LibreOffice Writer, Here are some mockups based on the existing user interface and some examples from other applications. You can see them below or at these links: Mockup 1: Tabs at the top of the window with icons and close buttons - https://bug-attachments.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=184357 Mockup 2: Tabs at the bottom of the window - https://bug-attachments.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=165505 **How tabs could support side by side view** Another possible feature that could enhance the usability of tabs in LibreOffice Writer is the ability to view two or more tabs side by side in the same window. This would allow users to compare, edit, or copy content between different documents without switching tabs or windows. This feature could be similar to the split view or the side by side windows that are already available in LibreOffice Writer, but with tabs instead of subwindows. To illustrate how side by side tabs could look like in LibreOffice Writer, here a mockup: - https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:LO-Tabs-SideBySide.png Mockup 3: Side by side tabs in LibreOffice Writer **What others think about tabs** I'm not alone in wanting this feature. There are many other users who have expressed their interest and support for tabs in LibreOffice Writer on various forums and platforms. Some of them have also created mockups, sketches, or screenshots of how tabs could look like in LibreOffice Writer. Here are some links to some of them: - https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/opening-multiple-files-in-tabs-optional-function-or-extension/61520 - https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/feature-request-open-various-files-in-different-tabs-in-writer/4064 - https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/has-any-thought-been-given-to-tabbed-pages-in-documents/3963/2 I hope you will consider adding this feature to LibreOffice Writer in the future. I think it would make a huge difference for many users like me who rely on LibreOffice Writer for their daily work. **How tabs could be developed** As for the technical solution for implementing tabs in LibreOffice Writer, I have done some research and found some possible approaches that could be used by the developers. Here are some of - Using Qt’s QMdiArea class, which provides a standard workspace for managing multiple document interface (MDI) windows.his class allows creating subwindows that can be tiled, cascaded, minimized, maximized, or closed. Each subwindow can have its own menu bar, tool bar, and status bar. QMdiArea also supports tabbed views of subwindows, which can be switched by clicking on the tabs or using keyboard shortcuts. QMdiArea is already used by some applications that have tabs, such as Qt Creator or KDevelop. - Using GtkNotebook widget, which provides a container for multiple pages of content that can be accessed by tabs. Each page can contain any type of widget, such as a text view or an image. GtkNotebook also

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37134 --- Comment #70 from Guy Rouillier --- Keep in mind that LibreOffice Calc already uses tabs within a single document to allow multiple worksheets. These tabs are shown towards the bottom - below the cells but above the search drop down and the status bar beneath that. So that would be another challenge to deal with in considering adding tabs for multiple documents. Somehow, you'd have to clearly differentiate between multiple tabs within a single document, from multiple tabs showing separate documents. Not saying that allowing an MDI interface for LibreOffice documents is a bad idea. I found this issue because I was looking to see if this was already possible. :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

The FireFox approach (inside a single application frame with no CSD) is much simpler. Only reasonable direction for providing "tabbed" MDI is extending VCL's current Window functions as a new view mode. And agree the mode needs to be user controlled, i.e. toggled on-off, set number of tab documents, tear off to new frame, etc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

They deserve to get paid for what they do. This feature would be a big improvement. More people would switch to LO. So more people would make financial donations. This is how it works, as well. Look at Blender, for example. Actually, LO is releasing new versions from time to time. I check every new version to see if this feature was implemented. This is the importance of the tabbed-UI.

This would be great for productivity. The current design of LibreOffice consists of a title bar that has nothing but the filename. Hence, it would be possible to adopt a layout similar to OnlyOffice's. Another good example is Firefox's design when you hide the title bar. However, I'd like to point out that: 1) OnlyOffice allows to have tabs from different applications (spreadsheets, presentations and text documents) in the same window. I personally would prefer to have tabs grouped by application. 2) Some users do not like tabs to switch between files. Therefore, if this feature is to be implemented, it should be optional. This could be done by adding an option to the Tools -> Options -> View dialog. There could be a "Open new files as tabs" checkbox. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

What everyone seems to be missing is these aren't separate document files. All tabbed divisions exist in a single LWP file. I un-hid the comments which someone flagged as off-topic so you can have a better idea of what people are really asking for. Those images are highly relevant to understanding this. A tabbed division is "conceptually" a separate document but it physically exists in the hierarchy tree of the LWP file. When you change the position of a tabbed division, i.e. dragging it between 2 others, you physically change its hierarchical position in the file. You can save that file, copy to a thumb drive, take to another machine, and it will open up with those tabs in that order. Unless the OpenDocument specification is going to expand/change, this isn't something that can be "faked" into LO. Others can way in, but as far as I know, LWP was the only file format to support this.

A toolbar with all the open documents listed on it, and the ability to switch from one document to another, and to rearrange the tabs with drag and drop. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37134 --- Comment #49 from rol...@logikalsolutions.com --- Just finished testing install on Windows 10 64-bit Pro from CD. Works just fine. Must be Admin, not just a user with Admin privs. Had to install printer in VM. Default Oracle Virtualbox will have NAT as network device setup. This allows Internet but not local net access. Must changed to Bridged for local network printer access. Sadly you won't have Internet access then. Thankfully you can change this on the fly without restarting the VM. NAS is taking it's sweet time hunting for .lwp extensions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37134 --- Comment #48 from rol...@logikalsolutions.com --- (In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #43) > Changing priority to 'high' since the number of duplicates is 5 or higher Thank you s much! I added some screen shots. To really understand the power of tabbed divisions you really have to use them for a while or pick up one of the old books on eBay. It will install under Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. You have to first enable the Administrator account, not just be logged in with administrator privs. The same "might" work for Windows 10 but most claim the product simply either won't install or run under Windows 10. Might want to create XP VM for testing. Definitely install in a VM. The common complaint is that it installs older versions of fonts over top of newer, better looking versions of the same fonts. Some instructions on how to "fix" that can be found in the comments at this download link. https://archive.org/details/LotusSmartSuite99 Another supposed download link. https://softadvice.informer.com/Lotus_Word_Pro_Viewer.html The only difficult thing is getting the LWP spec. I haven't seen it in years. There appears to now be a murky little circle still understanding it. Deb printing claims to support everything under the sun. https://debprinting.com/page/accepted-file-formats This document converter site also claims to support it. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t=j==s=web=14=rja=8=2ahUKEwjH59qH-5bmAhWQMd8KHR64C0gQFjANegQICBAB=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.etyn.com%2Ftools%2Fdocument-converter=AOvVaw2T_a2okvxER7LaHrVOdUCb Yes, LO claims LWP support, but, as others monitoring this will most likely chime in, not really. I had an awful lot of lwp files from back in the day, some of which I needed. I used to use the VM->WordPro->File-SaveAs to get the bulk of them. Launching network search now to find any remaining. If they are not for companies still in business and not for systems still in use I will provide. Most of that stuff was created during my OS/2 Warp days so it should be relatively safe to allow into the wild. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
