[libreoffice-users] Paypal phishing warning

2011-06-09 Thread MR ZenWiz
Sorry for the cross-post, and off-topic at that, but:

This morning I received a very authentic looking email from
info.paypal.com, claiming that Paypal wanted me to update my browser.
(Really.)

It had my name in it and all the right graphics and colors and everything.

Except that the from site was info.paypal.com (whoever they are: hint
- not paypal.com) and the links all had long obfuscated links in them.

I verified with paypal that it was not legitimate, so I though you
might all be warned as well.

You may now return to the appropriate technical discussions

Re: [libreoffice-users] text frame

Chapter 4 section 'linking frames' states that a link can only be
created between _two_ frames, which seems totally pointless.


?? How would you create a link 'between' one frame?

Just use it as follows, I woudl suggest:
frame1 = frame2 = frame3 = framen ...

The following check-boxes are ticked (ON):

These options were in fact ticked by default, and the images do not

I have installed LibreOffice in ubuntu 10.10. When I want to transpose rows
or columns (paste special/transpose) the following message appears: no se

Could it be that you select more than 1024 rows?

Cor Nouws wrote:

I think there's a misunderstanding.  I believe e-letter meant to say
... you can link two frames only (and not more than two)...

 Just use it as follows, I woudl suggest:
 frame1 = frame2 = frame3 = framen ...

This seems to work.  Just for reference, you would do it like this:
Create 3 text frames (frame1, frame2 and frame3).
Select the 1st frame.
Click on the link frames button (in the toolbar, looks like a chain-link)
Click on the 2nd frame. (frame1 and frame2 are now linked)
Select the 2nd frame
Click on the link frames button.
Click on the 3rd frame. (frame2 and frame3 are now linked)

To test that the 3 frames are correctly linked:
Click inside frame1 and start typing some text (you may need to resize
the frame a little)

As you keep typing, the text spills over into frame2.  If you
continue, it spills over into frame3.

e-letter, does Cor's suggestion (also discussed in this post) solve
your problem?

Stephan

case.

Otherwise, it would indicate that Paypal has been compromised.

Sorry, but there is an easy solution.  You just needed to make sure the 
en_GB language pack is installed before the en_GB help pack is.  There 
is a need to match the language packs and help packs.


As for deleting the whole thing, I have not found it to be a problem 
as you think it is.  3.4.0 is for early adopters.  3.3.x are for the 
users that do not want to try the most cutting edge version.  As for 
idiotic emails, I find that there is a lot of help from users on this 
list.  Each have their own advise, some better than others, but they are 
not idiotic unless they are meant to be.


I am sorry you feel that way about LibreOffice.

We ALL have our personal opinions about what is the best software to 
use.  Right now, the tech magazines have printed/posted articles that 
seems to say that LibreOffice is the best Open Source Software on the 
market today.  That is their opinions based on what they 
experience from their testing process and other use-based information.  
I like LibreOffice better than OpenOffice.org, and much better than 
Microsoft Office.  If you have a better package in mind, why not list it 
with your email[s].

[libreoffice-users] Base Forms/Reports and Web/Print Layout

2011-06-09 Thread Mark Deiter
Hello,

I've developed an application in LibreOffice Base.  After updating to 3.4,
I'm having a problem with the settings for print versus web layout.  In 3.3,
forms and reports could be independently set to use either web or print
layout.  However the form/report was set during design was how it remained. 
Now in 3.4, it seems this has become a global setting where all forms and
all reports use either web or print layout across the board.  So, I spent a
day figuring out that on opening my database I can open a form in design
mode,  set the view to web layout, via macro, and then everything comes up
in the way I designed it.  But, then my reports come up in web layout as
well, and they need to be in print layout.  Has anyone else experienced this
problem or found a work around?  Will the layout settings be permanently
changing to a global type setting for everything?  Of course, I could add
code to all my reports to first open them in design mode and change to print
layout, but then I would also have to code to go back to web layout after
the report ran because otherwise all my forms would then come up in print
layout.  Thanks for your help.

 Yes, but that applies only to raster graphics, not to vector formats. With

 To summarize: The built-in pdf export preserves my raster graphics but kill

 This behaviour has not changed since OOo 1.0


It is also an issue in impress, where there is no printing involved.

I haven't tried 3.4, but the EPS images stopped working in 3.3 and SVG
images have never worked.  After dicussing the problem, I am not sure
how the EPS images ever worked, perhaps they had embedding that was
stripped somehow.  Of course, using the embedded raster image
completely defeats the purpose of using vector artwork in the first
place.

Most of the programs I use for vector artwork can produce EPS or SVG
files just fine, but being able to properly display some sort of
vector artwork in impress seems critical to me.  Differences in
projector resolution can seriously degrade the appearance of raster
artwork.

[libreoffice-users] Pasting with mouse in calc with Linux inserts an object, not the data

2011-06-09 Thread Frank Steiner
Hi,

we are currently running libreoffice-3.3.1.2 in SuSE Linux Enterprise
Desktop 11. I'm not sure when it started exactly, but I think sometimes
between OpenOffice 3.0 and 3.2, we discovered the following change: Before
when marking some cells in a calc spreadsheet with the left mouse key and
inserting it with the middle mouse key at some different place in the
spreadsheet just inserted the content of the cells. 
After OpenOffice 3.2 and now in libreoffice 3.3 not the data is inserted,
but a spreadsheet object, i.e. another small spreadsheed inside the main
spreadsheet. This doesn't make any sense as pasting with the middle mouse
key is standard in Linux and also works e.g. in writer documents.
With Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V the copy and paste works as expected, but with
left-mouse/middle-mouse key we get this strange object.

I haven't found a way to change that. Is the behaviour configurable somehow?
Or is it a bug?

cu,
Frank

I don't know what you are doing with LO that you find it  so bad.  I

The help I have gotten from OO.o help and the help from the folks here 
is of better quality than the so called help I got from MS help package 
(only easy questions answered there) or from official and unofficial MS 
help sites.


That said, if you don't like OO.o or LO, you should pay Microsoft their 
(exorbitant) fee for Office, which incidentally is not free of problems 
either. Please stop complaining about a free package that works well, 
has great help, and marvelous FREE mailing list for questions. And a few 
bugs.


All that is required is that you understand that we are all volunteers. 
Volunteers write and maintain the code and distribute it for FREE, and 
volunteers provide FREE support for this FREE package.


And you must understand that no software is bug free.

Thanks to everyone who helps write, debug, distribute and support 
LibreOffice and who did the same for OO.o!

Readers,

Is there a reason why the help is not part of the installation
package? Anyway, tried to install help, but received the following
error:

urpmi libobasis3.3-en-GB-help-3.3.2-202.i586.rpm
A requested package cannot be installed:
libobasis3.3-en-GB-help-3.3.2-202.i586 (due to unsatisfied libobasis3.3-en-GB)

Can someone help to suggest where the dependent file can be obtained?
Is this the start of the infamous rpm dependency hell???

Re: [libreoffice-users] Pasting with mouse in calc with Linux inserts an object, not the data

Hi Frank,

Hi,

we are currently running libreoffice-3.3.1.2 in SuSE Linux Enterprise
Desktop 11. I'm not sure when it started exactly, but I think sometimes
between OpenOffice 3.0 and 3.2, we discovered the following change: Before
when marking some cells in a calc spreadsheet with the left mouse key and
inserting it with the middle mouse key at some different place in the
spreadsheet just inserted the content of the cells.
After OpenOffice 3.2 and now in libreoffice 3.3 not the data is inserted,
but a spreadsheet object, i.e. another small spreadsheed inside the main
spreadsheet.


Are you running LibreOffice and OpenOffice parallel and try to copy from 
a spreadsheet in OpenOffice to a spreadsheet in LibreOffe?


That would be a known error and you can avoid it, if you open both 
documents in the same application.


Or do you copy between sheets of the same document? That would be a new 
error. But I cannot produce such error on WinXP.


Kind regards
Regina

(search for openoffice calc sheet tabs font size or similar). This
problem appears to depend on the o/s and can sometimes be solved by

Like I implied before, the problem I faced with en_US on .deb version 
was the same error.  All I had to do was install the en_GB language pack 
and then install the en_US help pack to get it to work.  It makes sense 
for the en_GB language pack to be installed before the en_GB help pack, 
but I did not know why it was needed for my .deb en_US help pack to 
work.  Yet it showed the same dependency error.  You would think you 
would not need the en_GB language pack for the default English install 
and the en_US help pack since there is not en_US language package.


So the error is not anything to do with the the infamous rpm dependency 
hell, but the need to install the packs in the proper order, and 
knowing which ones are needed as well.

the non-vector images getting compressed so i was hoping to help you get

around

that.  Sorry it didn't help.
Good luck and regards from

I haven't tried 3.4, but the EPS images stopped working in 3.3 and SVG
images have never worked.  After dicussing the problem, I am not sure
how the EPS images ever worked, perhaps they had embedding that was
stripped somehow.  Of course, using the embedded raster image
completely defeats the purpose of using vector artwork in the first

Most of the programs I use for vector artwork can produce EPS or SVG
files just fine, but being able to properly display some sort of
vector artwork in impress seems critical to me.  Differences in
projector resolution can seriously degrade the appearance of raster
artwork.

Todd

So should we still install the SVG Import extension?  Does it work 
properly with LO 3.3.x and 3.4.x?

Or is that import filter really built into the package?

Hi :)
Have bug-reports been posted?  I think the issues are quite important to get
fixed.

It's better to avoid the 3.4.0 at the moment unless you like bug-testing.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Pasting with mouse in calc with Linux inserts an object, not the data

2011-06-09 Thread Frank Steiner
Sorry, my description was not very precise and indeed not correct because I
got confused when reproducing it before writing the post:

The problem only happens with two instances of libreoffice running on
different PCs. Copying and pasting cells withing the same spreadsheet works
as expected on both the local and the remote instance of libreoffice.

Copying by marking with the left mouse key in the local instance and pasting
with the middle mouse key in the remote instance (or vice-versa) inserts the
marked cells as object.
The thing which confused me is that after pasting and getting an object in
the remote spreadsheet, immediately pasting with the middle mouse key in the
local spreadsheets inserts the content as object, too. That's why I thought
it would happen within one spreadsheet, too, but that's only after pasting
to a remote instance of libreoffice.

Copying and pasting between two spreadsheets which are both running on the
local PC or both running on the remote PC works as expected, too. Only
copying/pasting between to spreadsheets running on different computers
results in the data being inserted as object. Looks like a bug in the
network transparency...

PostScript and PDF are not easy to mix. Even with LaTeX you can't use

At least on older versions -- don't know if this still applies -- OOo
would generate a preview if the image had no raster preview, but as that
involved a funny bug involving endless calls to ImageMagick's convert
when the raster previews were too big to be cached, maybe that was
disabled.

A quick test with a random EPS I found shows me a preview raster, with

  LibreOffice 3.3.2 
  OOO330m19 (Build:202)
  tag libreoffice-3.3.2.2

But I don't know if the image has a preview raster builtin.

 Most of the programs I use for vector artwork can produce EPS or SVG
 files just fine, but being able to properly display some sort of
 vector artwork in impress seems critical to me.  Differences in
 projector resolution can seriously degrade the appearance of raster
 artwork.

LibO also supports Windows MetaFile and Enhanced MetaFile. IIRC they
have some issues (or maybe the metafiles I was using were badly
converted). But you can try converting your EPS to EMF and see if the
result is good enough.

I've some notes around here saying it's done with pstoedit, with the
option to generate EMF.

The same notes mention running fixps, generating svg with pstoedit and
converting back to eps with inkscape -- this was probably a workaroud
for some postscript files that pstoedit didn't like.

It's true that the French help package does not work but the English one run 
perfectly. Those kind of problems are frequents with a free and open source

Your infantile complaint remember me of some posts on others forums where users 
think that everything run perfectly out of the box. No program can give you

images inther EPSs). printing it .ps file and using ps2pdf will preserve the
EPS images and reduce the raster images.
This behaviour has not changed since OOo 1.0


It is also an issue in impress, where there is no printing involved.
EPS images don't show up, SVG images tend to be horribly broken.

Hi, just tried and on my mac, LO 3.4, eps images show the vector art in 
Impress.
LO either passes the image off to the OS for display or mac code has EPS 
display fixed.

Hi David,

OO.o 3.x checked periodically for updates but I cannot find any such
feature in LO 3.3.0. Is there such a feature? If so, how do I turn

No, there isn't , so I can't explain how to turn it on ;-)


I understand 3.3.2 is out. Should I update?


Should and free software - a special combination.
In general, of course using a newer version gives more fun.
Since 3.3.2 is a bug fix release on 3.3.x, it will only give you 
advantages. But it depends on your use, if they are really needed for you.

There may be some useful info for you in the release notes
  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/

Also: threre is a point zero release available, for if you like to work 
with new versions and can cope with some known bugs. See here

  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/#LO340

All covered from
  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/

And as last, there is also a RC1 for 3.3.3. So within a week or so, a 
final 3.3.3 is expected. See

  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/

Though I explained much more then you were asking for, I hope it didn't 
bother you.

[libreoffice-users] address changes DELAYED

2011-06-09 Thread Florian Effenberger

Hello,

sadly, a project caught me longer today than I thought, and I will have 
to work probably one or two more hours on it, which means that I cannot 
manage the address change for the lists today. So,


the address change for the lists will be DELAYED

I am sorry, the project came in quite unexpectedly, but sometimes real 
life needs time, too. :-)


I will try to do the address change as soon as possible, and follow-up 
on this lists soon. In the meantime, simply use the current addresses.


Sorry for the inconveniences,
Florian

Re: [libreoffice-users] help package installation failure

2011-06-09 Thread webmaster for Kracked Press Productions


Thank you Marc for saying that [below].

The last time I had to rebuild a Windows computer, I had to spend 12+ 
hours installing all 200+ updates that was needed to get the OS up-to-date.


Yes, not any software works 100% the first time you use it.  It takes 
work to fix anything you did not think of.  Each person and system will 
find things that were not working properly on their systems BUT was 
working properly on the testing system.  It is much easier to write a 
package that would be used on one system by a limited user base.  That 
one system was what Mac did for all those years.  Windows users and 
Linux users have used so many different hardware combinations, well 
things do not work well on every one.  The same for users.  We each have 
different needs and use the software differently.  We may find an error 
that would never be found by a tester since that person did not try the 
way you, me, or others, decide to use the software.


LO works well for me.  It works well for others.  Yes there are problems 
being worked on.  Yes sometimes there are issues that can be 
frustrating.  It was the same for me with office software before MS 
Office 95 came into being.  It was the same with MSO 97, 200, 2003.  It 
was the same with OpenOffice.org.  It is the same with LO.  I find that 
LO works better for me than any other office package that I have access 
to.  The package is free.  The people who are developing the code and 
fixing the bugs do not get paid for their work.  They freely donate 
their time and skill doing things others would demand big money for.


Nothing is perfect.  But LO is free and it works well.

3.3.x works well and is stable.
3.4.0 is for those who want to try the cutting edge version of the 
software.


I say thanks to everyone who have worked on making LO the best package 
it can be.


If someone has any problems with this, well remember this email list is 
for solutions to problems and not ranting and raving on how bad you feel 
it is.

Your infantile complaint remember me of some posts on others forums where users

That said, if you don't like OO.o or LO, you should pay Microsoft their

either. Please stop complaining about a free package that works well,
has great help, and marvelous FREE mailing list for questions. And a few

All that is required is that you understand that we are all volunteers.
Volunteers write and maintain the code and distribute it for FREE, and

Hi Mark,


Has anyone else experienced this
 problem or found a work around?  Will the layout settings be permanently
 changing to a global type setting for everything?  Of course, I could add
 code to all my reports to first open them in design mode and change to print
 layout, but then I would also have to code to go back to web layout after
 the report ran because otherwise all my forms would then come up in print
 layout.  Thanks for your help.
 


From what I can recall, this is a bug, introduced when code was merged
from the OpenOffice.org source (m103 I think). I can't remember right
now, whether there is a corresponding bug report in freedesktop bugzilla
for LibreOffice.

Hi,

I managed the first change of the addresses.

1. The archives from listarchives.libreoffice.org/www are now available 
at listarchives.libreoffice.org/global, with an automatic redirection in 
place


2. The lists previously available @libreoffice.org are available now at 
@global.libreoffice.org, with the old addresses working for a few more 
days (but will vanish soon)


3. The headers have been modified, so chances are you have to adjust 
your e-mail program filters.


4. The e-mail footers have been modified as well.

I will take care of the mail archives and GMANE tomorrow. If you run 
into any issues, please let me know.


Things should work, but I'm not finished yet, so the rest will follow 
tomorrow.


Thanks,

Re: [libreoffice-users] LO updates

2011-06-09 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I think i would summarise by saying that it might be worth sticking with what 
you already use and then upgrade to the 3.3.3 a couple of weeks after it is 
released (so, in about a month or so).  



More detail ... 
The 3.3.x releases have about a years worth of support so there is no real need 
to upgrade.  But as Cor said there are new features and fixes so trying to kep 
constantly updated can be interesting.  


The 3.4.x branch is the testing/development branch so that people can try out 
ultra new features before they reach the stable 3.3.x.
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

 - print it directly from LO to a non-eps printer, and
 - convert it to pdf
 while getting the full verctor graphics goodness out of it.

 Hi. This might be a windows bug (just the way windows prints, and always
 has).

AFAIK, CUPS relies on ghostscript, a postscript interpretator, and it
seems LibO prints in postscript when using CUPS. While in windows
printing is done by GDI, which is different.

So while with CUPS priting always generates postscript, in windows it
only generates if the printer driver does the GDI-PostScript
translation.

Hi Mark,


Has anyone else experienced this
 problem or found a work around?  Will the layout settings be permanently
 changing to a global type setting for everything?  Of course, I could add
 code to all my reports to first open them in design mode and change to print
 layout, but then I would also have to code to go back to web layout after
 the report ran because otherwise all my forms would then come up in print
 layout.  Thanks for your help.
 


From what I can recall, this is a bug, introduced when code was merged
from the OpenOffice.org source (m103 I think). I can't remember right
now, whether there is a corresponding bug report in freedesktop bugzilla
for LibreOffice.

 Yes, not any software works 100% the first time you use it.  It takes 
 work to fix anything you did not think of.  Each person and system will 
 find things that were not working properly on their systems BUT was 
 working properly on the testing system.  It is much easier to write a 
 package that would be used on one system by a limited user base.  That 
 one system was what Mac did for all those years.  Windows users and 
 Linux users have used so many different hardware combinations, well 
 things do not work well on every one.  The same for users.  We each have 
 different needs and use the software differently.  We may find an error 
 that would never be found by a tester since that person did not try the 
 way you, me, or others, decide to use the software.
 
 LO works well for me.  It works well for others.  Yes there are problems 
 being worked on.  Yes sometimes there are issues that can be 
 frustrating.  It was the same for me with office software before MS 
 Office 95 came into being.  It was the same with MSO 97, 200, 2003.  It 
 was the same with OpenOffice.org.  It is the same with LO.  I find that 
 LO works better for me than any other office package that I have access 
 to.  The package is free.  The people who are developing the code and 
 fixing the bugs do not get paid for their work.  They freely donate 
 their time and skill doing things others would demand big money for.
 
 Nothing is perfect.  But LO is free and it works well.
 
 3.3.x works well and is stable.
 3.4.0 is for those who want to try the cutting edge version of the 
 software.
 
 I say thanks to everyone who have worked on making LO the best package 
 it can be.
 
 If someone has any problems with this, well remember this email list is 
 for solutions to problems and not ranting and raving on how bad you feel 
 it is.


+1 Good point about testers not always trying my specific
combination of hardware and usage needs
On the Windows side I have 3.4.0 and have not run into any show
stoppers. On the Linux side 3.3.2 and again no show stoppers.

If your going to use Sections then use the Insert Section and set the

Re: [libreoffice-users] How can I make long words stay on their starting line?

2011-06-09 Thread webmaster for Kracked Press Productions

Does anyone know how to make part of very long words stay on the line that
their first letter started on if the long word is not the first word in the
line?

I know that sounded confusing, so let me give an example. Libreoffice Writer
treats URLs as very long words. Say you open a blank document, and then you
type a short word like office, followed by a long URL onto the first line.
So right now, your document looks like this:

office 
http://somerandomsuperlongURLthatdoesnhttp://somerandomsuperlongurlthatdoesn/
'
tmattersomerandomsuperlongURLthatdoesn'tmattersomerandomsuperlongURLthatdoesn'
tmatter.com/

The URL is too long to fit completely on the first line. So if you typed out
this URL character by character, Libreoffice Writer will move the entire URL
to the second line as soon as you reached the end of the first line! I don't
want this to happen. I want whatever fits on the first line to stay on the
first line. So for example, it might look like this:

office 
http://somerandomsuperlongURLthatdoesnhttp://somerandomsuperlongurlthatdoesn/
'tmattersomerandomsuperlongURLthatdoesn'tmat
tersomerandomsuperlongURLthatdoesn'tmatter.com/

Is it possible to set Libreoffice Writer to do this? I know it's not default
behavior, but there are situations where I don't want to start a URL on a
completely new line just because it won't completely fit on the line that it
started on. Please help.

Thanks!

Turn off the Autocorrect --   FormatAutocorrect  and uncheck the box 
for while typing.  That fixes a lot of formatting issues I have seen 
crop up in my typing.  This may help with yours.  Also, you might want 
to look into the Autocorrect options in that menu as well.  There is 
an URL option there.

[libreoffice-users] Bullets with different outline levels

2011-06-09 Thread rdb
Hi,


I am trying to make a nice style sheet with bullets at different outline
levels, and with each outline level at a different indentation. The
indentation just won't work out, whatever I try. Here's what I did:


Created a paragraph style 'CV Bullets'
Made its indent 7.4mm
In 'Outline  Numbering', I put the numbering style on 'List 1' and the
Outline level at 'Body text', and also tried 'Level 1'.
In the list style 'List 1', I defined different bullets for different
outline levels. That works fine.
Then, under the 'Position' tab, I tried to change the alignment of the
different outline levels. Doesn't work. The Bullets indent at 7.4 mm and the
text of each list item follows some indentation law that I don't understand.
Tried to define different paragraph styles ('CV Bullets 1', 'CV Bullets 2',
etc.) and link them to different outline levels in list 1 ('CV Bullets 1'
has Outline level 1 in 'Outline  Numbering', 'CV Bullets 2' has level 2,
etc.). No success, all kinds of things happen, but not the indentation is
not what I specified in the 'List 1' style.
The only thing that appears to work is to strip all paragraph styles from
the list and then apply outline levels. But this means I cannot control the
paragraph style of my lists anymore.
Result: Frustration *gna gna gna*

The online documentation that I could find is very rudimentary. Any ideas?
Did I overlook something or are LibreOffice lists just confusing?

Rik

The ideal solution is to adjust your word wrap settings in the Format - 
Wrap menu to turn off word wrap. As an alternative, you can insert a 
space in the middle of the link to keep that portion of the link on the 
first line. So in your example, type the text and full url and press 
enter. LibreOffice will convert the url to a hyperlink and it will wrap 
to the next line. Then find a good breaking point in the link where you 
want everything before that point to be on the first line, and click to 
place your cursor between the two characters. Then insert a space. The 
portion of the link before the space will move to the previous line. If 
you intend for your reader to click on the link from within the 
document, right-click on the part of the link on the first line and 
choose edit hyperlink and be sure the url is correct.
