Libre Office saga continues, should I downgrade
hello all, Now I am in a fix. I did upgrade to Libre Office 4.0 and find it very good in terms of performance. But till date I haven't had any luck for disabling Unity menu integration. I wish to have access to file, edit, view ... menus like before. I will be conducting a massive workshop in a couple of weeks and don't wish blind students to use any difficult versions. Should I downgrade and how? or is there really a solution where I can just disable the menu integration specifically for Libre Office? happy hacking.

Re: Libre Office saga continues, should I downgrade
blind people have been using emacspeak for several years, that has a learning curve but accessibility problems are missing since the author of the environment is blind as well and works at the googleplex. Messing around with libreoffice until there's enough accessibility customization included in the system is unlikely to be a reliable productivity tool. Latest version of emacspeak is 37.00. Latest version of libreoffice is 4, go figure and guess which package has had more developer support working on it. If you guess emacspeak, you're wrong.

Re: Libre Office saga continues, should I downgrade
That still does not solve my problem. It is not about a comparative analysis. I just wish to know if there is a way in which I can disable menu integration in Libre Office 4 or should I downgrade to 3.5 or some thing and if the latter is recommended, then how. happy hacking.
