Re: [Libreoffice-qa] Issue Gallery Theme Export To Extension
Hello, I tested the creation of a new gallery theme with LibreOffice with version down to LibreOffice 5.1.x and the behavior seemed to be the same. It is impossible to create gallery extensions with LibreOffice in the way it was described in the TDF wiki and on a lot of other websites (and in my howto too). I tried to edit the *.sdg file that was created from the new gallery theme, but with no success. I tried to edit the URL at the end of the file, but that doesn't help. It is impossible to drag a graphic from the theme (installed via extension) into a document. Seemed to be that there has been inserted a regression.

[Libreoffice-qa] Issue Gallery Theme Export To Extension
Hello, it was possible to easily create a new gallery theme with former versions of LibreOffice and create an extension to deploy it to other users. LibreOffice created three new files in the 'gallery' subdirectory of the users configuration. You could copy (and rename) this files and put them in a subdirectory of the gallery-extension. If a user installed it on his/her computer, the new theme were added to his/her gallery and could be inserted by drag and drop into a document. This way is not available anymore (since at least LibreOffice 6.0). LibreOffice creates in addition to the three files a subdirectory with the new graphics (the ones that are added to the new theme). But if you copy the whole files in the 'gallery' subdirectory and also the subdirectory with the graphics into the subdirectory of the extension you could install the extension, see a new gallery theme, but could not drag and drop the graphics into a document. You will get a dialog instead, that shows in one field the (old) link to the graphic. This is the absolute link to the graphic at that time when the gallery theme was created. If you have a look into the *.sdg file of the new gallery theme, you'll find the absolute path to the graphic(s) at the end of it. It should have been a relative path to the graphic(s). This new behavior of LibreOffice makes it impossible to create and share LibreOffice gallery extensions. The included graphics will never be found. I have to update my documentation about non-code extensions next days and explain that it is only possible to create gallery extensions with former (not actively supported) versions of LibreOffice yet.

The biggest part of the dialog gets a transparent background. In late May we had a flurry of bugs which sounded like this. tdf#01488 [META] RenderContext related issues collects a lot of them. However, I thought they were mostly fixed by the time of beta2. Just now in Impress in beta2, I see a fully-painted context menu in each of the three big panes. I hate to suggest that you are confused about what version you are running, but well, right now I am talking about ...

It's an regression to 4.4 etc. I tried with the own dialogs of LibreOffice but that doesn't change anything. Is this only a KDE thing or is this behavior shown on other desktop environments too? My environment is debian-wheezy with gnome in a fallback mode. So, that difference might be the second thing I would look at. BTW, you know that beta3 is available now, don't you? I saw this message yesterday but didn't scroll down the list to the new beta(3). I installed the beta3 now and deleted my LibreOffice-dev user profile. The dialogue for Text displays fine now, but if I call the paragraph dialog instead (context menu) I get the issue again. I tried again a second time (after deleting the profile again) with the paragraph dialogue directly and get the rendering issue with that dialog too. I try to figure out, if there are more of such dialogs with issues left.

The header contains only: street with number, city, zip-code. Besides the missing name the city and zip-code are in the wrong order (zip-code city without comma is the correct order). Then the fields on the right side of the body are empty (there are only the title of the fields: 'Fax:', 'Tel.:', 'E-Mail:'). There is no information about the from above this fields. The language setting of the created fax document is English (USA) and should be German. Once I called the wizard I got a preview of the fax with my name in the header and on the right side of the body. The fax wizard is nearly useless in this shape and we should fix this. I recommend that we run tests on all the wizards in Writer and fix located bugs (not only in 4.2 but also in 4.1.x).

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] [LibreOffice-QA] Need Testers for New Python Wizards - daily builds, 4.1 Beta or Master

You can get the most stable of these here: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/ Please note that this is not recommended for enterprise use or for a daily use machine if you are doing important things with it :) If you have a computer that you can just play around with LibreOffice a bit - especially if you have used the wizards in the past and know what to expect, please download one of the versions mentioned and play around with the wizards to test for bugs. Reason for this is that Java was stripped out and replaced with python - quite a major code change but hopefully not much of a change for user experience. Report back if you get a chance to test it.

[Libreoffice-qa] Fax Wizzard - Missing Fields in Template
Hello, I build a LibreOffice from source today (4.2.0 alpha) and run the fax wizzard. It produces a better template/document than some day ago. The implemented fields are at the right place and have a correct size in the view. But there is still the data with the name of the user missing in the header of the document (fax). And it's the same for the block on the right side (From:). This block contains only the email address of the user. I have not looked into the latest build for branch 4.1 but I know that I found this problem in LibreOffice 4.0.x. Is this problem already know (Sorry, I have not searched through Bugzilla yet) and could somebody confirm this issue?

[Libreoffice-qa] Issue with Text Animations in LibO-3.5-beta1
Hi all, I installed LibO-3.5-beta1-x64 on my openSUSE-11.4-x64 (KDE 4.7) and gave it a try with the presentation that I gave at the OpenRheinRuhr. You can get the presentation here: http://amantke.de/images/praesentation/libreoffice_openrheinruhr2011_11_13.odp There are text animations inside (soft appearance / weiches Erscheinen) that presentaion. You could find them e.g. on slide 8, 9 and 10). If I run this presentation in 3.4.4 everything works smoothly, but in 3.5.0-beta1 there is no text animation available. If there are more than one animation on the slide, I got on a click the slide with the text again and again. Thus the the actions (mouse clicks) seemed to be recognized but there is no action connected. Could someone please confirm this issue on his box. It would be good to know, if the bug is also shown on other OS (e.g. Windows).
