There are a couple of CD/DVD packages available, semi-officially, from

Where are you? You might check with your local user group for the

Indonesia. I'm using ADSL connnection.
You might want to check http://www.libreoffice.org/international-sites/ 
for an international site. I did not see an Indonesian site unless there 
was a local Indonesian language I did not recognize - very likely.



What OS are you using? Which version are you using? These might help us make
a better suggestion.

Ubuntu 11.10 with LO 3.4.4.
Maybe I better to wait next major release to update my LibreOffice :)

Ubuntu will provide updates for LO (eventually) from the repository.


Thanks Jay.

You can copy ~/./openoffice/3 to ~/./libreoffice/3.

First move the existing settings to a backup file:
$ mv ~/.libreoffice/3/ ~/.libreoffice/3.back

Then copy the OOo settings to LO:
$ cp -R ~/.openoffice.org/3/ ~/.libreoffice/3/

If you run into any issues, you can always move ~/.libreoffice/3.back to
~/.libreoffice/3.

LO is. Tools|Options|General|- untick Open/Save 'Use LO dialogs. Then
OK. Now when you are in the primary directory, just right click the
directory window and select 'Show Hidden Files'.

Hi, Tom.

to switch off Java I just need to uncheck "Use a Java runtime environment"?
I did it, restarted the LO3.5beta3 and I don't see any difference.

  The problem with that is that Import does not show 'hidden'
directories (i.e. those whose name is prefixed with a "."), and
OpenOffice's ".ooo3" directory is one of those.

   Perhaps LO should be a little more helpful in this respect.

[libreoffice-users] MySQL-Native Connector

[Heinrich Stoellinger]

Hello Crowd,
has anybody built the connector for Debian-Wheezy (= testing)?
It works beautifully on my Mint-Lisa system and also on Windows/Vista.
They are both at level 3.3.3. I do not really want to upgrade these
systems, because they are my "workhorses".
Thanks

Hi, 

did  you actually read the instructions? I'm talking about this ones
here:
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/

Btw, this link is added to each email, so you should have seen it. 

If you did read the instructions, then why didn't you write to the
postmaster, as suggested there? No one of us users can unsubscribe you.

If all your attempts to unsubscribe just don't work, then - as a last
resort - please send a message to postmas...@documentfoundation.org and
include the following information: The lists you want to be
unsubscribed from, the address you're subscribed with, and detailed
information about the problems you encountered. Please include/forward
the replies you received from the mailing list system, if you received
any.

So, please write to the postmaster and include the necessary
informations.

Hi Alex,

Is it normal Calc to freeze some minutes when resizing the width of a
column in a blank sheet that only has a column filled with 18000 cells with
annotation??


Not that I know. On the other hand: I never tried :-)
And you did, in a very comprehensive way, if I also judge your second post!

I think some of the devs will be very happy with your trial / posts.


I include a link to your posts here - lets see what their judgement is 
about the need/use to create a bug report.

  http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/msg15541.html
  http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/msg15612.html

Work is going in on all sorts of re-work in Calc, so it might be that 
this is on the radar already. Maybe not.


Thanks so far - to be continued,

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Need simple find & replace macro

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
Yes, i think some of the docs team are currently working on both projects at 
the same time or at least working alongside each other a bit.  The wiki for LO 
is 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications
but the official page usually gets updated soon after the wiki.  
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/documentation/

Even tho the 2 projects have already diverged it is good to see that they can 
work together in some things imo :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] Question about Calc and Annotations

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
On 1 machine can you try switch off Java in LibreOffice?

Tools - Options - Java

This is just a test to see if java is causing the problem but it's unlikely.  
It's just that freezing and slow-downs fit the pattern.  

Wizards and some Extensions use java.  So does Base if you use the in-built 
back-end.  So, it's possible that you might be able to do without java 
completely if you are lucky.  If you do need it then you tend to get error 
messages rather than data-loss.  In which case you just switch java back on and 
then re-open LO with no harm done.  

If you do need java then version JRE 6u21 stops the freezing and works faster 
but has significant security issues on Windows.  
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html

LibreOffice 3.5.0 is due out soon 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan  
(6th Feb but out as beta already i think) and that can handle JRE 7
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index-jsp-138363.html#javasejdk

The devs are working hard at writing out any need for java but Base is tricky.

Tom :)

 Do you have the Writer Guide for LibreOffice? You can find it here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Chapters/
 On this same web page is a chapter on macros: Getting Started with
macros (ch 13 in the Getting Started Guide. This might help some, but it
might not.

My ultimate goal is to migrate from Windows to Linux.  Before I do that I
need to assure myself that software running under Linux can do what I've
been doing in the past with various Windows programs.

I'm very comfortable with WordPerfect having used it for almost 25 years. 
Nevertheless, like much software I only use a small fraction of its
capabilities.  From what I can see LibreOffice is more than capable of
matching everything WordPerfect does.  I expect I won't use nearly all of
its capabilities. 

The real challenge is making myself learn how to use it.  I have a lot of
forms in WordPerfect that were tedious to create, such as bankruptcy and
child support pleadings.   I'm not crazy about redoing those in LibreOffice. 
Yet, if I get them like I want them I'll have mastered enough of the program
that I can make a smooth migration.

Change is inevitable.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Need simple find & replace macro

[paulwhitehurst]

Calvin:

I've done it like that.   I have a problem if there are no more } characters
in the document.  It deletes the next character whatever it is.  I'm looking
for something that would notify me if the search finds nothing or would ask
to resume the search at the top.

In WordPerfect I could simply replace the } with nothing rather than using
deleting the text.  I haven't been able to effectively do that in
LibreOffice.

No. Although both may use the VBA language, the two programs use different

So this is a similar issue as with VBA and StarBasic. The latter is a

Ctrl+End does this. And Ctrl+Home does the reverse (jump to the beginning.
This works in most (all?) OSes and applications.


Also,  gives you navigation toolbar called 'Navigator'.
Select what you want to navigate(search) like tables, frames, sections, etc.
Then normal next/previous page button will change to your setup.
For an example, if you have 10 tables scattered throughout 200 pages of

you can go through(find) all tables easily.

Re: [libreoffice-users] calc: unnumbered rows

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I don't think it's possible unless we are talking about different things, which 
is highly likely!  

Across the top columns are given numbers and down the side the rows are given 
numbers but this is only so that you can make reference to a specific cell.  A 
bit like  map references.  Those letters and numbers do not appear if you print 
the spreadsheet (hmm, i think you can force it to show them but it's not 
easy).  You can't create an un-numbered row in those numbers.  

However we might be talking about different things.  
1.  If you have a column of numbers then you can insert an empty cell to create 
an empty space.  
2.  Or if you move the mouse arrow between 2 row numbers so that it hovers on 
the line between them then you could drag a row to be twice as tall.  It's 
trick to do this first time but incredibly simple from then on.  The trick is 
to watch for the change in the mouse arrow's pointer.  

I'm not completely sure what level of user you are.  So, many apologies if i am 
going tooo fast or tooo slow!
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi All,

Thanks for the different answers, but even if there are good ideas, they are
all more demanding than doing all the work by hand in Calc.

I could filter, copy , paste the result in a new sheet and save it... 4 or 5
clicks to be repeated 124 times.

I was looking for a way to do that with a batch or an automated process. If
i have to do a more complex process 124 times, there is no gain

One other option is to use a macro to do this.


Thanks anyway,

The cell referencing system uses letters for columns and numbers for 
rows so you reference a cell by R37. This is a standard referencing 
method for spreadsheets.


Under View>>Column and Row Headers is on if you are seeing row numbers. 
Unclick it and the headers will not be visible.

because that should be one of the more basic things to do. Well, I
don't say it's imposible, just that I was stupid enough to not find
the answer. Sorry…


Kind regards

[libreoffice-users] Re: Need simple find & replace macro

[paulwhitehurst]

Tom:

Thanks for the response.

Don't overthink this.  I'm not trying to convert anything from WordPerfect. 
Rather, I'm trying to just write one for use in Libreoffice (or purloin one
someone else has written).

The Libreoffice documents will have the } character.  I want a macro to find
that character, delete it, and leave the cursor at that position.  It needs
to be one I can assign to a key.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Suggestions for LibreOffice

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
It is great to see people offer suggestions and to approach this list first so 
we can see which team to send ideas to.  Most of the teams here have a 
wish-list or "feature request" thing to track ideas.  

Sorry your ideas this time are already implemented or in the process of being 
added but do keep on thinking up more.  Even better would be if you could join 
one of the teams or just have a look at what they do until you find a team you 
enjoy being part of or contributing too.  Some teams are down the 
left-hand-side here
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Main_Page
or perhaps better to poke around the official site
http://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/

All good stuff :)
Many thanks and regards from
Tom :)

I am new to this forum. So please  be kind.      I have been using
LibreOffice for some time now; home use only.  I have two suggestions to
pose for possible inclusion into LibreOffice. So, here goes.
Suggestion One:    Include "Check for updates"  to perform online checking
for updates to LibreOffice. At present, it appears that the only way to find
out if there are any updates is by receiving an email; or maybe by a
third-party application ... such as SUMo.

Suggestion Two:   I would like to see a "navigation" tool (short-cut) or
whatever you call it/them, that when used will send the user to the end of
any type document or form and to the end of the last line, data, etc.  At
present, I have not found any such "tool" to do this.  I have to manually
scroll down to the end of the document in order to add more data to a
document.  This can be very time consuming particularly if there is a large
amount of data.  This navigation tool needs to be available for all types of
documents, forms, data sheets, whatever.

Anyway, thanks for listening.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Batch for extracting lines into new files in CALC

[tk5ep]

Hi All,

Thanks for the different answers, but even if there are good ideas, they are
all more demanding than doing all the work by hand in Calc.

I could filter, copy , paste the result in a new sheet and save it... 4 or 5
clicks to be repeated 124 times.

I was looking for a way to do that with a batch or an automated process. If
i have to do a more complex process 124 times, there is no gain

Thanks anyway,
Patrick

[libreoffice-users] Changing footnotes to endnotes schanges the numbering system also

[Erik Jan]

Yesterday I decided to change my footnotes into endnotes. I did this by 
placing all footnotes at the end of the document with the help of Tools 
-> Footnotes/endnotes -> Footnotes. But then the numbering changes. As 
footnotes they are numbered from 1 till 179 without any renumbering. 
Changed to endnotes the numbering restarts after every heading 1. I am 
unable to change this. Is this a bug or a feature? Whichever it is, how 
do I change the numbering at the end of the document without any 
renumbering?


I use Libreoffice 3.4.5 on a Linux system (Mandriva 2010.2).

[libreoffice-users] How to enter Dates in a format to allow the counting of days lapsed between a "from a date" cell and a "to a date' cell

[MSwhip]

I am interested in learning how to enter dates in cells in a format that
would allow me to calculate number of days lapsed between a "from date" and
a "to date" entered in 2 different cells.

Could anyone please help

Thank you

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: How to enter Dates in a format to allow the counting of days lapsed between a "from a date" cell and a "to a date' cell

[Dan Lewis]

 Here is how I do it. I use Column A for the beginning date,Column B
for the ending date, and Row 1 for the column headings.
 I enter the first beginning date in cell A2 and first ending date
in cell B2. I continue adding the beginning and ending dates down these
two columns.
 In cell C2, I enter this formula: =B2-A2. That is I enter the equal
sign followed by B2 followed by a minus sign followed by A2. Use the
Enter key to enter this formula into cell C2.
 Click cell C2, and you should see a little box at the bottom right
of the outline of this cell. Use the mouse cursor to drag it down column
C until you come to the last pair of beginning and ending dates. This
will give you the number of days that exist between each pair of dates.

[libreoffice-users] Re: selection across page boundaries in Writer

[Tom]

Hi Irkeefe :)

Were you able to post a bug-report or get the question answered in openSUSE
forums?

Did you try downloading one of the latest releases of LibreOffice directly
from the official LO web-site?
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/
Did that work?  It might have been just some weird settings in the
UserProfile so it might be best to try renaming your user-profile first

[libreoffice-users] Re: UNSUBSCRIBE

Hi Randy,


You should try the same advice...

I knew I was subscribing ... all I wanted to know was how to get Java and this 
to work ... I asked nicely the first 6 times ... I'm getting a little tired and 
cranky from over 50 eMails about  book bindings ... formatting a picture ...etc

Now all I want to do is quit getting these eMails

Libre won't be getting any recommendations from me...


I wanted to unsubscribe you manually, but did not find your address on 
file anymore, so I guess you managed already.


In case you still have problems, please *directly* write to

postmas...@documentfoundation.org

If you simply reply to this mailing lists, chances are I will *not* see 
your mail in first place, so please *only* use the postmaster address.


Thanks, and sorry for any inconveniences,
Florian

There is no need to enable or disable anything. You can write (and spell

GUI language, numeric default locale and default text language are
completely independent from each other. Each snippet of text, each table
cell, field, input box and what else can be used in its own language
context.


And for those of us who don't speak 2, 3 or 10 different languages, 
and only need *one*?


Gordon: it is a little easier to first disable the entire Dictionary 
category (rather than doing each language individually), then expand 
it and select only the desired language.


And I agree with your complaint, but there is something else that bugs 
me even more...

and two minutes later I posted the exact same question as the OP...


I think the default should be if you do a custom install, the only 
dictionary in the list should match the language the user chooses.  It 
should be an easier way to do this.


I did not like the process it took to install a custom English install 
and not include all of the other language dictionaries.  I do not think 
that installing 20 or 30 non-English dictionaries BY DEFAULT is the best 
way to go.  For an English user, I do not want to see my Extension 
Manager list so filled with unused languages that I have a difficult 
time finding the extensions I did install or want to enable/disable from 
time to time.  Many English users might be turned off by this.


For a Windows user, having all these language packs and non-English 
dictionaries include with their download install file may be go or bad, 
but it should not be the default to install.  Also, if you do have the 
language packs include, why do you have to download the help packs 
separately?  It does not make sense.


Maybe Windows installs should be like Linux's version.  If you want any 
other language than English [and maybe no more than 5 others] you would 
need to download separate language and help packs for them.  Linux users 
have to do this.  It might be better to have Windows users do this as 
well.  Maybe there could be a download option to automatically create a 
download list for all of the language packs and help packs that the user 
requests.  That way he/she downloads only the languages they want or 
need.  The difference in file size could be 30 to 50 MB, but there might 
be a better solution than what is going on now.


I think that it should not be the default to install all of those 
dictionaries and language packs if the user does not use a custom 
install.  You should make it clear what is being installed by default so 
the user can make an informed choice.  Then make the custom install 
process easier and more intuitive to use.  If it is not easy for a users 
with 20 years of experience in installing software to do the process, 
how easy will it be for user with little experience at installing 
his/hers own software?


We need to make the process simpler. Period.
We need to make the default be something other than installing 30 
languages over English. Period.

We need to make custom installs easier to do. Period.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Installing LO 3.4.5

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I think the same instructions still work although there is a wiki-page on how 
to install versions alongside each other.  It's not straight-forwards not it's 
not hugely tough either.  Personally i would recommend uninstalling and 
reinstalling just because it's easy and free.  It's only if you are likely to 
have sudden dead-lines and need a more familiar version to fall back on.

Within a bug report I have been asked to install & try LO 3.4.5, which

Has the install procedure changed since the following details kindly
provided for installing 3.3?:  


"Installation instructions for Mandriva are:

    Install process:
    Intallation (based on a KDE desktop Mandriva 2010.1)

    BEFORE STARTING, UNINSTALL ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF LIBREOFFICE

    1. Download LibreOffice from http://www.documentfoundation.org to
        your  "downloads" folder into a folder called "LibreOffice"
    2. Open Dolphin
    3. Browse to the "LibreOffice" folder in the "downloads" folder
    4. Right-click on the LibreOffice file and choose extract archive
        here
    5. Once extracted double-click on folder "en-Us" and then "RPMS"
        and then "desktop-integration"
    6. In Dolphin do F3 (this will split screen your window)
    7. Click in the right window once and click on the "UP" arrow in
         the main menu bar up-above in Dolphin
    8. You will now have the left window "desktop-integration" and
        right "RPMS" windows open
    9. In the left window drag the    
          libreoffice3.3-mandriva-menus-3.3-.noarch.rpm 
       file to the RPMS window and choose "Copy" **
    10. In Dolphin do F3 and use the "UP" arrow till you are back at
         the level where you see the "licenses", "readme", "RPMS"
         folders
    11. Right-click on folder RPMS and choose Action-Open Konsole
    12. Konsole will now open with a $
    13. In Konsole do $su  (this is super user mode)
    14. Type in your root password
    15. In Konsole do #rpm -Uvih *rpm
    16. Wait till all the packages have installed"

Re: [libreoffice-users] Need simple find & replace macro

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I found this link
http://www.gmccomb.com/vbafaq.html

Apparently the language that WordPerfect uses for macros is "Microsoft VBA" so 
it's likely to need to be 'translated' into LibreOffice Basic or something.  
There seem to be 4 options for macro language in LO, see 
Tools - Macros - "Organise Macros"

Hmm, now i see the wikipedia page says it uses "PerfectScript macro language" 
which is also likely to need to be 'translated'.  I liked the line  ... 
"WordPerfect macros ... are not embedded in a document. As a result, 
WordPerfect is not prone to macro viruses or malware, unlike MS Word. "
but i get the impression that LO macros are also less likely to get infected 
but for some other reasons.  

If you post the code here or to the devs list there might be someone that is 
interested in having a go at translating to LO.  There are some awesome people 
here that are often good like that.

Regards from
Tom :)

I want to migrate my law office from WordPerfect to Libreoffice.  My forms
have the } character that I use where I want to input text.  I created a
macro in WordPerfect that searches for that character, deletes it, and
leaves the cursor at the position.  I've assigned the macro to a key so I
can quickly go through documents.

I'm having difficulty learning how to duplicate this in Libreoffice. 
Likewise, I'm having difficulty finding one that already does this.

Help please.  Thanks.

[libreoffice-users] Need simple find & replace macro

[paulwhitehurst]

I want to migrate my law office from WordPerfect to Libreoffice.  My forms
have the } character that I use where I want to input text.  I created a
macro in WordPerfect that searches for that character, deletes it, and
leaves the cursor at the position.  I've assigned the macro to a key so I
can quickly go through documents.

I'm having difficulty learning how to duplicate this in Libreoffice. 
Likewise, I'm having difficulty finding one that already does this.

Help please.  Thanks.

Paul

Good point. I confirm that having user access privilege restricted to one 
single database only this one is displayed in the 
tables area.
This seems to be a good workaround.
Format:

Re: [libreoffice-users] OT- Kindle usage and documents?

[Virgil Arrington]

I don't believe the Kindle will recognize an ODT file. It will recognize PDF 
files, but a letter-sized PDF document will display extremely small on the 
Kindle.


I have found a couple different ways of transferring my LibreWriter files to 
my $79 Kindle.


1. Save the file as a PDF. Before doing so, I set my page size to 20 picas 
(3.3 inches) wide by 27 picas (4.5 inches) high and page margins at 2 picas 
(.3 inches) all around. I also set my typeface to about 10 points. This 
gives me a page size that displays very nicely on the Kindle without having 
to zoom and scroll to read the whole page. The advantage to this method is 
that all formatting (fonts, indents, spacing, etc.) is preserved. The 
disadvantage is that I lose the ability to change the font size on the 
Kindle without having to scroll the page right to left.


2. Option two is to save the document as an HTML file. I do this in Writer 
with the "File/Save As" menu rather than the "File/Send" menu as it works 
better. I then convert the HTML file to a MOBI file using Amazon's Kindlegen 
utility. It's available at 
http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000234621. It's a 
command-line utility (takes me back to my DOS days) that converts HTML files 
to Amazon "MOBI" format. It works very well. I've used it to convert Writer 
files with tables of contents and the table is preserved as hyperlinks in 
the resulting Kindle file. Character formatting (Bold, Italics) is preserved 
and page formatting is controlled by the Kindle, so no need to scroll 
horizontally to read a line of text. There is a GUI version called 
MobiPocket Creator at 
http://www.mobipocket.com/en/downloadsoft/productdetailscreator.asp. 
Personally, I prefer the command line Kindlegen, which is on Version 2.


Hope this helps.

Virgil

Re: [libreoffice-users] OT- Kindle usage and documents?

Hi :)
There is a Template for this here
http://www.kindletemplate.com/
I think they have asked their web-designer to add a link to LibreOffice rather 
than only mentioning OpenOffice.  It does cost money to buy tho.

Re: [libreoffice-users] UNSUBSCRIBE

[Onyeibo Oku]

Alternatively, you can configure your email service to filter out a particular 
subject line ... Or bits of it, and channel the rest to trash.  

That should give you some isolation from libreoffice mails other than the 
thread you started (long shot) :) ... But I guess that depends on what your 
email service providers allow.

Re: [libreoffice-users] UNSUBSCRIBE

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
Sorry, good point!  Here is a copy of the page ... 

"

How to Unsubscribe

We have
sometimes received complaints from people who have signed-up to our
mailing lists (our user support list, for instance, to ask for help
with something) and then no longer want to receive messages. Sometimes
it's because they've found the solution to their particular problem,
and sometimes it's because some of our lists have quite a heavy traffic
of posts.
This page describes how you can unsubscribe yourself. Please read it 
thoroughly, as it will most likely help you get your problem solved. If you 
still have problems after reading this help, a human contact's e-mail address 
is linked at the bottom of the document.
If you don't want to receive messages from our mailing lists anymore, please 
follow the steps below to unsubscribe.
We recommend you not to simply flag messages
from our mailing lists as spam just because you don't want to see them
in your inbox anymore. Instead, the best solution is to properly
unsubscribe from the list(s) concerned. That way, you will really put a
permanent end to the unwanted mail.
Check what kind of subscription you originally opted for
When you subscribe to our mailing lists, there are two ways of receiving posts 
from the list. In the standard mode, you receive every post to the list 
individually as soon as it is sent to the list. In digest mode,
you receive a single message containing multiple posts, either once per
day (if the list traffic is low) or after a certain number of posts
have been sent to the mailling list (if the list traffic is high).
If you receive messages with individual subjects, of which the subject lines 
are prefixed with a tag such as "[libreoffice-users]" (which is the list's 
identifier tag), then it means that you are subscribed in standard mode.If you 
receive a message containing a collection of posts, with a subject line 
starting with words such as "Digest of users@global.libreoffice.org"
(indicating that the message contains a digest of messages from our
user support list, in this particular example), then it means that
you're subscribed in digest mode.Check which e-mail address you subcribed to 
the list
People sometimes report that they are having problems unsubscribing
from a list. Sometimes, the reason is simply that they are not sending
the unsubscription request from the same e-mail address that they
originally used to sign-up. If you have multiple e-mail addresses and
are no longer sure what address you used when you subscribed, please
look at the headers of a message from the list (look for a button or
link such as "Details" or "Raw Message" or "Original Message" in your
e-mail program or webmail page). Your e-mail address will be listed in
the "Delivered-To" entry or the "Return-Path" entry, such as
illustrated below:
Delivered-To: john@example.com
[...]
Return-Path: 
Notice that in the "Return-Path", your address is embedded in another address, 
and the "@" is replaced by "=". 
After completing the above two steps, you will now know both the
subscription type and the subscribed e-mail address, and you can
proceed to actually unsubscribe, which is a two-step process:
First you send the unsubscription request.Then you confirm that the request was 
genuinely made by yourself, and was not an abusive request sent by someone 
else.This is similar to the subscription process, and is referred to as "double 
opt-in/out" or "confirmed opt-in/out"). The process is very similar to the one 
you had to use to subscribe to the list in first place.
Send the unsubscription request
If you want to unsubscribe from the users@global.libreoffice.org mailing list 
(our user support list), for example, send an e-mail message to 
users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org (if you were subscribed in standard 
mode) or to users+unsubscribe-dig...@global.libreoffice.org (if you were 
subscribed in digest mode).
The message does not have to contain anything in the subject line or
in the body of the message. If your e-mail program or webmail service
warns you that you are about to send an empty message, you can ignore
the warning and go ahead with sending the message.
However, it does not matter if you do enter text in the message
subject line or body. Our mailing list software will ignore any
contents and no-one will read the message. Only the destination e-mail
address is used to recognize your intention to unsubscribe.
To repeat what we said above, please do make sure you send this
message from the same e-mail address as was used to subscribe to the
mailing list, otherwise the unsubscription action will not work.
The process is the same for all our lists, and you need to perform this step 
for every list you want to unsubscribe from.
Confirm the request
Shortly after sending the unsubscription request (typically just a
few seconds later - check for new mail, and look in your spam folder if
there doesn't seem to be any), you

Hi :)
The instructions are at the bottom of each of the emails

Randy has an excellent point about these lists being a major blocker.  Forums

That's sad

One experience decides it all? Not a fair basis for conclusions my friend. 
Mailing lists are like this. U probably needed to signup for a digest instead 
of regular deliveries. U get only few mails and you'll still be hearing from 
libreoffice users.

You may also need to join forums and IRC chat channels if you're desperate but 
leaving a mailing list with that tone for reason of email traffic isn't fair.  
Did anyone abuse you here?

Re: [libreoffice-users] UNSUBSCRIBE

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
This is an extremely high-traffic list and that is not made clear to people 
when they sign-up so it can cause panic.  

A proper official forum such as most modern projects use (Firefox, Fedora, 
Ubuntu, Mint and so on and on) would neatly avoid all sorts of recurring 
problems.  But of course we have to stick with some ancient system that makes 
the project look like something pre-Win95.  Even Arch has forums ffs.

Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] Question about Calc and Annotations

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I don't think it's normal.Please could you let us know which release of 
LibreOffice you are using?  Try 
Help - About
to find out.  Also which version of java
Tools - Options - Java
Although it seems unlikely that java would be involved in that sort of 
operation (hopefully).  The OS you are using might be good to know too.  
Windows, Ubuntu or some other Gnu&Linux such as Mint, Mageia, Fedora or 
whatever, Mac or Bsd?  

You might find that renaming the UserProfile fixes things as it resets all 
settings to "factory defaults" and hides your Extensions/Add-ons/Plug-ins
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile

Tom :)

Is it normal Calc to freeze some minutes when resizing the width of a
column in a blank sheet that only has a column filled with 18000 cells with
annotation??
Nothing abnormal happens here when the sheet has 18000 cell with normal
data instead annotation.
Just opening the file take long time too here.

By the way, there is no slow down or freezing when using it in MS Office
2010 (file saved in ODS format, not XLS).

I did a macro to insert annotations in 18000 cells for test purpose.

Sub Add18KAnnotations
dim p as integer
p=0
dim m(3) as string
m(0)="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
m(1)="0123456789 0123456789"
m(2)="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
m(3)="0123456789 0123456789"
dim s as object
dim n as object
dim y as integer
dim c as object
dim a as object
s = thisComponent.sheets(0)
n = s.getAnnotations()
for y=0 to 18000
   c=s.getCellByPosition(2,y)
   a=c.CellAddress
   n.insertNew(a,"-""m(p))
   p=p+1
   if p=4 then p=0
next y
End Sub


Thanks
