Re: [libreoffice-users] Left-floated headings using styles

Hi,

I'm looking to achieve a certain layout effect in LibreOffice writer, but
it's a bit hard to describe. I can demonstrate it in HTML:

 http://heeris.id.au/test/test.html

...but basically, I want a certain style of subheading to appear to the
left of the body of text for which it is the heading. The text should be
indented and not flow around underneath the heading. All such headings
should have the same amount of horizontal space available, and should wrap
if they exceed this.



I'd go using frames and adjusting styles accordingly (of course ;).

Here's what I'd do:

1. Setting styles

a. Standard text: use TextBody style and set it up to fit your needs 
(ie, wide text indent on the left, etc.)


b. Insert a frame and move it to the place you want for title 
paragraphs. Set it up to fit the title context.
- Don't forget to have a look and setup the frame anchor, position and 
size. Create a new frame style from this one.


2. Usage

Just type the body as you wish, using TextBody style paragraphs.

For each title, the cursor being in the 1st paragraph for that title, 
add a new frame and set it to your frame style. Then set the title style 
to what you see fit (Heading 1, etc.) and... enjoy!

Just a drawback, BTW: inserting new (numbered) title in between two 
already existing ones will use the next number in the list.


I'm having a look at this but I've noticed that reopening the document 
after it has been saved and closed, the numbering is ok.

Hi there!

I have been looking for a while and I do not find any related topic finally.
What I want is to do a conditional format between a group of data, where the
background of the cells in calc
depends on the values inside the group. For example a list of numbers from 0
to 10 where 10 is totally red on the background and 0 is white. Then, a
gradient of white to red should be seen between the values in between 1,2,3,
and so on.

Is that possible with calc? Any link for it?

Many thanks in advance!

You may write a (not so trivial) macro to accomplish that or you may use 
bound input forms with a database which is the main purpose of form 
controls anyway. Then your form controls are bound to the respective 
field in the currently selected record when you scroll the table 
underneath the input form.

It DOES work! All I had to do was open my Spanish document and click Tools

I had only an empty doc open. Anyway, I'm a VERY happy camper -- finished my 
Spanish homework, and I know it's correct! Sorry to have bothered you, but I 
fooled around for two days trying to figure this out.

If all you have to do is have a foreign language doc open, then maybe this 
needs to be written up somewhere we mortals can find it.

Thanks for all your work, and I will contribute $$.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Spreadsheet -- General searching guidance...

2012-02-12 Thread MiguelAngel

El 12/02/12 0:37, Barry Smith escribió:

I have always been fascinated by statistics.

I'm trying to understand the math behind powerball statistics, but my
spreadsheet experience is having trouble meeting the bill.

I'm trying to duplicate the statistics that I saw on
http://www.simplypowerball.com/?q=node/33 , most simply the GMO column
number of games since last hit.

So far, I imported the current powerball winning numbers text file from
http://www.powerball.com/powerball/winnums-text.txt

After import, the sheet '20120208' contains draws including 20120208 and
has 8 cols from the original data--
A DrawDate,
B WB1,
C WB2,
D WB3,
E WB4,
F WB5,
G PB,
H PP,
and I added a column I Draw DOW,
which is simply a DOW number from the draw date in Col A.  The value is
either 4 for Wed, and 7 for Saturday. Plan to use that info later somehow.

Next, I added another sheet which will scan the draws from first sheet,
and report back the same stats from the SimplyPowerball webpage.

The first task is getting the GMO column working.  In order to do that,
I need to understand how to lookup data in an array, report the row, and
then to subtract a constant.
Since the last draw is in row 2, I think I need to subtract 1.  Yet I
digress.


From sheet 'Pre-2008 WB' I'm trying to figure out how to scan array

'20120208'.B3:'20120208'.F1491 row-by-row, and find the first row with a
number that I'm looking for (which is in 'Pre-2008' in column A, which
contains the sequential list of white balls 1 thru 55).

I keep getting an error 502... which doesn't tell me what part of my
function is invalid.
I have tried LOOKUP function, MATCH function, and currently I am trying
the HLOOKUP function.
The current cell has the formula
[=HLOOKUP(N(A2),'20120208'.B3:'20120208'.F1491,0)] .
A2 contains the number 1, so I'm attempting to just find that a 1 has
ever been drawn at the moment.
Ideally, the formula should contain a ROW function (I think), and
subtract 2...
to show me before 2/8, when was a 1 drawn as a whiteball.

I have thrown a copy of my current spreadsheet onto the web on my
GoogleDoc account. the file link is http://bit.ly/wjJtXu .
I will continue to fiddle with the formula, but if someone would be so
kind as to teach me a little about how to find the row of the last time
that a number was drawn... I would be grateful... because the error from
Libre office doesn't really point me in a direction to fix the error. :)

Thank you,


May be this is what you are looking for:

=MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!B$2:B$1491,0)

Writer can be converted to an epub document using the extension Write2epub
My experience is it does make a bit of a mess to it though if your document
is rather complex.

For the benefit of others.
I updated my Libre Office to the latest build of 3.5 and now everything
appears to be OK except for poor formatting in the finished e document.
The PDF conversion works perfectly except for the drawbacks of PDF.
This thread seems to have developed into a discussion on the merits/demerits

 The fixed page size and numbering is extremely important when you are

Before my Ubuntu box crashed, I had found a procedure using two Linux
tools (one was called cuniform I believe).  One tool would OCR the
scanned graphic pages (for some reason it worked only with 150cpi/dpi
scans) and create an XML list of words, and where they were on the page

=MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!B$2:B$1491,0)


That is part of the problem.  That says within the WB1 column, that
there is a match on the 122 row, but the actual row is 123... so MATCH
gives a row relative to the top of the vector.  That is even better than
I was hoping for (I was thinking that I'd have to subtract a scalar
because the matrix started in Row 2 (or 3, since I'm trying to create
the stats before the draw on 2/8).
So, I dupe the MATCH function for each WB column, and can I then use MIN
to find the first occurrence...

Something like
=MIN( MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!B$2:B$1491,0),
MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!C$2:C$1491,0),
MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!D$2:D$1491,0),
MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!E$2:E$1491,0),
MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!F$2:F$1491,0) )

That would give me the lowest row in the matrix where N(A2) is found...
I think.

Thank you for your help, Miguel.

Paz, (escribo español también)


For you can use a matrix fomula:
=ArrayFormula(MIN(IF('20120208'!B$2:H$1490=$A2;ROW('20120208'!B$2:H$1490);99)))
This is how is view in google docs,

To enter in LibreOffice, intruduce the formula:
=MIN(IF('20120208'.B$2:H$1490=$A2;ROW('20120208'.B$2:H$1490);99))
and finish with Crtl+Shift+Enter

When the PDF format was originally developed in 1993 many would actually

E-book formats are designed for viewing the document on an e-book

 Spell checking works based upon paragraph and character styles. You
have set Spanish (Mexican) as your language meaning that the Default

 If you want to use Spanish, you need to create a new paragraph
style with Spanish selected as the language in the Font tab. Then apply
the Spanish style to all the paragraphs containing Spanish. For
paragraphs containing Spanish (Mexican), apply the Default paragraph
style.
 More information on styles are found in the Getting Started with
Writer chapter of the Getting Started Guide and the styles chapters in
the Writer Guide.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Calc and gradient conditional formatting

Hi there!

I have been looking for a while and I do not find any related topic
finally.
What I want is to do a conditional format between a group of data,
where the
background of the cells in calc
depends on the values inside the group. For example a list of numbers
from 0
to 10 where 10 is totally red on the background and 0 is white. Then, a
gradient of white to red should be seen between the values in between
1,2,3,
and so on.

Open FormatConditional Formatting. A dialog box will open allowing you
specify the criteria and formatting for that criteria. AFAIK only 3 can
be applied.


Is that possible with calc? Any link for it?

Many thanks in advance!

Now is possible in LibreOffice 3.5RC3, more than 10 conditions I don't 
know the limit.


But also it is possible in other version using the STYLE() function 
inside the formula condition of conditional format.


First define the styles needed.
In this sample Background _1, Background_2 ... Background_10
with the different background colors.
In the Conditional Formatting select Formula is =
and the formula:
STYLE(Background_A1)
A1 is supposed to have the value to select the appropriated style.

 =MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!B$2:B$1491,0)

 That is part of the problem.  That says within the WB1 column, that
 there is a match on the 122 row, but the actual row is 123... so MATCH
 gives a row relative to the top of the vector.  That is even better than
 I was hoping for (I was thinking that I'd have to subtract a scalar
 because the matrix started in Row 2 (or 3, since I'm trying to create
 the stats before the draw on 2/8).
 So, I dupe the MATCH function for each WB column, and can I then use MIN
 to find the first occurrence...

 Something like
 =MIN( MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!B$2:B$1491,0),
 MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!C$2:C$1491,0),
 MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!D$2:D$1491,0),
 MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!E$2:E$1491,0),
 MATCH(N(A2),'20120208'!F$2:F$1491,0) )

 That would give me the lowest row in the matrix where N(A2) is found...
 I think.

 Thank you for your help, Miguel.

 Paz, (escribo español también)

 For you can use a matrix fomula:
 =ArrayFormula(MIN(IF('20120208'!B$2:H$1490=$A2;ROW('20120208'!B$2:H$1490);99)))

 This is how is view in google docs,

 To enter in LibreOffice, intruduce the formula:
 =MIN(IF('20120208'.B$2:H$1490=$A2;ROW('20120208'.B$2:H$1490);99))
 and finish with Crtl+Shift+Enter

 Take care of sheet separator, if you use Libo or google docs.

 Miguel Ángel.


Wow!

I read about array functions somewhere in the LO docs, but I had no idea
how to use them.

Also, I'm only using LO.  I tossed the xls up to Google docs so that
people who wanted to help could see the sheets that I was working with.

 To enter in LibreOffice, intruduce the formula:
 =MIN(IF('20120208'.B$2:H$1490=$A2;ROW('20120208'.B$2:H$1490);99))
 and finish with Crtl+Shift+Enter
I'll have to study that formula carefully...
=MIN(IF('20120208'.B$2:G$1490=$A2,ROW('20120208'.B$2:G$1490), ))
Column H is the PowerPlay column - it doesn't fit into the domain for
Powerball Draws...

and the Ctrl+Shift+Enter...  I tried just Enter and got an Err: 504.  I
copied the formula for B to G, pasted, and finished with
Ctrl-Shift-Enter, and it worked.

Thank you for your help, Miguel.
I need to learn more about array functions... the one applied when you
use the Ctrl-Shift-Enter.

Back to the design table. :)

In LibreOffice 3.4. I've tried everything, read all the forums.
Downloaded  the recommended Spanish oxt file from Extensions. Extension
Manager shows it as installed. But when I try to set it as the

try to establish Spanish as my SpellChecking language in Writing Aids,
it does not stay selected. It appears in the selection box, then I
click Close, but when I open the Writing Aids dialog again, it has
reverted to English.

AND, the spell checker doesn't check anyway -- just asks Start at top?
then says everything is fine. In a document full of misspellings and
gibberish.

Help!

  Spell checking works based upon paragraph and character styles. You
have set Spanish (Mexican) as your language meaning that the Default
paragraph style in the Font tab has this selected as the dictionary used
to check spelling.
  If you want to use Spanish, you need to create a new paragraph
style with Spanish selected as the language in the Font tab. Then apply
the Spanish style to all the paragraphs containing Spanish. For
paragraphs containing Spanish (Mexican), apply the Default paragraph
style.

I am not sure why the person sent the two emails to me off the list.  If 
the person was looking at LO from my portal site, they would have used 
the different email address that was displayed there.


There is a point about setting the default language for spell checking 
that is not English, when you are using English for your menu language.


There should be a way to keep it set to Spanish, French, or other 
supported language, without it defaulting back to English until you tell 
it to.  The complex way to spell check a non-English text with a 
non-English dictionary that is installed and enabled, seems too complex 
to me.  What happens if you write a text that was completely in English, 
but you type a word or two that was in perfectly spelled French or 
Spanish?  Now it seems that you have to check each bit of text with each 
and every possible language that might be written within that text.  For 
someone who writes in English but needs to reference words from other 
languages that he/she has installed dictionaries for those other 
languages, we need to have an easier way to help them spell check 
his/her writing.  When I write some text for a document and know that 
the word I just typed is correctly spelled, and it is not a standard 
English word, I still get them underlined as misspelled.  Take the words 
Español and Français.  I have Spanish and French dictionaries 
installed [which are locked so they cannot be uninstalled or modified], 
I get the underline stating that I have misspelled then.  I have to run 
the different languages through the spell checking system to get them to 
work.  Also, With the language menu so filled with different versions of 
English and French, it had only one space left for a version of Spanish 
and no space left for German or other language.  The menu list for 
languages is the language box that comes up when you press the spelling 
and grammar icon in the Standard Toolbar.  So with only the default 
and locked dictionaries enabled, this language menu gives me the 
following and no room for any more:


English - Australia, Canada, Erie, India, Nambia, South Africa, UK, USA, 
and Zimbabwe.


French - Belgium, Canada, France, Luxembourg, Monaco, Switzerland.

Spanish - Spain.

I have a German dictionary installed and there is no listing so I can 
use it to spell check German words.  I think it is due to the fact that 
the default and locked English and French dictionaries have listed in 
them ALL of these different version of those two languages and the menu 
system is picking up on them and listing all of them in the limited menu 
space.


Since I am using Ubuntu, I am not given the option of a custom 
install, like Windows, so I can decide on the dictionaries I want 
installed.  So that may be the reason I am getting this issue for lack 
of menu space for the other installed languages.


But the issue for making it easier to spell check a non-English language 
or keeping that language from switching back from your selected 
document/paragraph/text language choice is in need of a looking in to.

ToolsOptionsLanguageSettingsDefault Language sets the language for 
all brand new documents. Brand new documents those documents which are 
not derived from some template.
If you use some default template for a component, you've got to open the 
template for editing (FileTemplatesEdit...) and apply the language 
setting together with option current document only.
This setting affects the font language in all text formatting dialogs 
having a Font tab.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Write2epub

2012-02-12 Thread jorge
Hi:

I found a program to convert html o xhtml and .txt to epub format.
Its name is eCub an it is a solution about you are talking. For
example, if you make a document in .odt format, then you can select the
export option in File menu and save as html o xhtml and then with
this eCub program you can do it. I did an example and it was good (But
it was made with a simple document and I don't know how is going on with
a complex document)

You can find it here:

http://www.juliansmart.com/ecub

It is able for GNU/Linux, Mac and Windows

Regards,

Jorge Rodríguez

  Unfortunately this is not a Forum, we can not move topics :) We would have
  to start all over at the Discuss mailing list...
 
 
 Cross-post?  It does have an occasional valid purpose... :)

We're not remote-sensing mind-readers.

James Knott has a very valid point, one which I myself have suffered
through over the decades: power user or newbie developer has skills
inadequate to the task, but doesn't know it, so asks How do I
snagglethrob the doohickey? when the correct question is, What's the
best way to make *this* report run faster? and so let the Expert
possibly come up with an idea that the power user never would have
thought of.


I think many of us, including myself, have a tendency to try fitting a
square peg in a round hole because we know the square peg tool and not
the round hole tool.



Sure.  It's where the the phrase if all you have is a hammer, 
everything looks like a nail comes from...  :)


As a DBA, my first thought when presented with a problem is use a 
database!!  I must control that impulse, balancing expertise with 
suitability for the job.

[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice not working with IME (I tested with Telugu)

2012-02-12 Thread Raju Chitrada
Hi There,

Problem: LibreOffice not working with IME (I tested with Telugu)

Details: In any type of document in LibreOffice (Text/Spreadsheet/HTML/...) if 
we input anything in Telugu (te) using any IME (I tesed with Google Input and 
Baraha IME), it crashes. It does work when single characters are entered 
(example: అ, గ), but when ‘2 characters that get combined’ are entered 
(example: గి, మే) then LibreOffice crashes.

Environment:
LibreOffice 3.4.3
Win 7 Pro
Google Input (or) Baraha IME 10.2

Can anyone suggest a workaround/solution for this? I appreciate your efforts.

Regards,
Raju Chitrada
