[Bug 1064962] Re: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running
Hello, I paste again (sorry) the comment I made on duplicates as this bug seems more relavant, and as it can give additional informations. I confirm this bug with Global Menu on Libre Office in Ubuntu Quantal. I see 3 types of problem: - When I open a LibreOffice document directly from file manager, it starts and is visible, but as described by others there is no "global menu". Title of document is well displayed, but if I move the mouse on the top panel, only the buttons (close, minimize, maximize) are visible, the remaining of the panel is empty, no menu is displayed. For Writer and Calc I have to select and put on foreground another opened program - via Unity dock - and reselect LibreOffice, then the global menu is well visible, accessible and works. For Impress even by switching, it remains empty. - Also, sometimes, on a opened and working document, when I switch back from another program, again menu disappers, I have to re-do the switch to make it appear again. - Last, sometimes it happens that the global menu is visible but totally inactive and inoperative : sub-menus are displayed, but if I click on a command, absolutely nothing happens (as if I did not click), and keyboard shortcuts still work... Here the only way to get it back working is to close and restart LibreOffice. For this last problem, I did not identify any specific situation which makes the problem always appear, it comes occasionally and randomly. Perhaps it's also a separate bug ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1064962 Title: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bamf/+bug/1064962/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1064962] Re: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running
@Peter Yes, I know. Problem is basically that menus are now implemented in a new way, and support for that was not as good as we expected at first. LibreOffice is one of the first apps to use it, and when you use new things... problems could arise :) Eventually, all apps would implement this way of publishing menus on next versions of Ubuntu. I know that for an end-user this is not a valid excuse, but that is the real issue. Hope all issues would be fixed soon, so all Ubuntu users could have a greate user experience!

@JPi I have set up the PPA on my Ubuntu desktop and I can't see a new version of the libreoffice-gtk package, which I think that should contain the improvements. As @David said, amd64 version of LO apparently failed to build, so I think that nothing has changed with regard to the menubar integration. @Peter It's a known error and it's in the appindicator side.

Pressing ALT does not show menu items: When this new version builds successfully, will it also fix the non- appearance of menu items when ALT is pressed? I raised this in #52, but I could not tell if the reference to another bug in #53 was in answer to my question. Until it is, I'll opt to ditch ALL global menus (as in #65) rather than have to remember to change all my working habits just for LO. Is this being addressed?

As an aside, can global menu be disabled interim? Or by an environment variable? (UBUNTU_MENUPROXY does not work) Because as it stands it renders libreoffice virtually unusable. Even in the cases where the menu works initially, it will eventually stop working.

You have to wait until the package finishes building. This takes some time, because libreoffice is a big package. You can also click on "View package details" and look at the "Build Status" column.

@Peter I am the guy responsible for the LO's Unity menubar implementation, and I apologize for all problems you are having. I commited a fix for this issue some days ago, but I don't know when it would be released, but it should be soon. I know that implementation is far from perfect, but trust me that we did our best to integrate LO with Unity, but things went a little bit difficult in the process.

[Bug 1064962] Re: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running
Apologies - I think my remarks about the visibility of the menus hold true, but I am experiencing cases where a previously existing document (opened as the FIRST document from within the LO 'White Window' ), displays menus which although VISIBLE, do not FUNCTION... The workaround MAY be to open a blank document in the first instance, THEN open an existing one in any manner you choose. @Lance: Even where the menus are gone to pot, I have had no difficulty simply saving my changes using Ctrl+S. That should be much less cumbersome than creating new documents all the time. I really hate to moan, but I cannot be alone in finding this excruciatingly embarrasing (never mind tedious)... I used to recommend Ubuntu - but now I cannot. For over a year or more there have been major useability problems in this core application, all concerning LO integration with Unity and Global menus. This particular problem was immediately apparent on the Quantal Live CD final release; however, I went ahead an installed it, believing that (after so many problems in Oneiric and Precise) there must be an update waiting in the repos - but there wasn't, as we now realise. I know it's free software, I am deeply grateful to all the programmers and I am happy to make my donation to Canonical, but it beggars belief that time could be wasted coding for Amazon shopping (for heaven's sake!), leaving this crucially important application in such a poor state.

[Bug 1064962] Re: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running
To help those needing to have a reliable workaround, it is this: If NO Libreoffice documents are currently open, ensure that you open an EXISTING file from the general LibreOffice 'White Window'. Then the menus should be displayed. This works for me, whereas minimising restoring etc. produce no benefit. In case this is of help tpo those searching for the bug, I think the problem can be distilled thus: Two scenarios - A) If first LO document to be opened already EXISTS, menus will NOT be displayed. Subsequent documents (even of other LibreOffice types) WILL display menus. B) If first document opened is a NEW document, opening further EXISTING documents of the same type will force the first to close (with the offer to save it if file contents have changed) but the menus will then be displayed for all remaining LO documents. NB: Opening an EXISTING document from within the general LO 'White Window' causes menus to be visible in that and subsequent documents. Opening an EXISTING file from within a NEW document (of any type) seems to behave in the same way (with a curiously low importance given to the new document involved). General: Once things have gone wrong, and menus are hidden, etc, the icons already pinned to the Unity Launcher start to show a variety of bizarre results on right-clicking (Calc even showed up as a launcher for a Launchpad version of a browser window...), offering to be locked to the Launcher when they are already etc. With the workaround above, LO is usable. However, Alt STILL fails to bring down the application menus... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1064962 Title: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bamf/+bug/1064962/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

We basically believe this is a race between LO and indicator-appmenu. Indicator appmenu looks at new windows to see if they have menus on them, but doesn't have a way to see if they get added later. To fix we're looking at a way to register for a signal from BAMF to get the infomraiton when the atoms change so that we can see this data get added later. ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu Quantal) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Package changed: unity (Ubuntu Quantal) => bamf (Ubuntu Quantal) ** Changed in: bamf (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Undecided => High ** Also affects: indicator-appmenu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: indicator-appmenu (Ubuntu Quantal) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: indicator-appmenu (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Undecided => High ** Also affects: indicator-appmenu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: indicator-appmenu Status: New => Confirmed ** Also affects: bamf Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: bamf Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: bamf Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: indicator-appmenu Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: indicator-appmenu Assignee: (unassigned) => Ted Gould (ted) ** Changed in: bamf Assignee: (unassigned) => Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0) ** Changed in: bamf (Ubuntu Quantal) Assignee: (unassigned) => Didier Roche (didrocks) ** Changed in: indicator-appmenu (Ubuntu Quantal) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ken VanDine (ken-vandine) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1064962 Title: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bamf/+bug/1064962/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1064962] Re: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running
as for the window needing a un- and refocus: - I dont think LibreOffice does something on these events (Right, Antonio?) - I see the menu being exported just fine in d-feet, so it is at least allready on the dbus before the refocus (cant check it in d-feet without unfocusing LO though) So the question is, if its on dbus, why doesnt the menu show it?

indeed, I dont see it after restarting my session.

- Doing this with a _new_ document works fine here. - Running "libreoffice ~/Documents/somedoc.odt" works fine here too. - Drag'nDropping a document from nautilus to a LibreOffice window works fine here. - However, doubleclicking "~/Documenys/somedoc.odt" from nautilus exports a menu just fine, but there are no actions executed. Adding unity too as the menu is obviously exported and this might be some focusing/mapping issue in unity too. ** Summary changed: - Global menubar items do not work in Writer + Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running ** Also affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1064962 Title: Global menubar items do not work when opening a document directly from nautilus with no LibreOffice instance running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1064962/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
