Hello, I want to lunch LO from the command line et bring its window to the top to be the first shown window. Best regards. 2012/8/5 j_taylo...@btinternet.com quote author='Mourad Hedfi' Hello everyone, I'm using LibreOffice under Mac OS throught an application. For that, I want to lunch LibreOffice as a demon. But my problem is what I must to change to let LibreOffice Stay on top of the Window. Many thanks in advance to your help. I use a Mac, System 10.8 with LOffice 3.5.5.3 I do not understand what you mean by Launch as Demon? If you want LO to be ever present, then launch .it and have it permanent in the Dock.

Re: [libreoffice-users] paragraph marks
Hi :) Errr, delete one of the pair? My guess is that it is not so simple as you make it sound tho. Is it something to do with paragraph styles? Note that if a normal enter creates an extra wide gap then try Shift Enter to see if that is closer to what you want. Note that Ctrl Enter creates a new page but shift enter is kinda less than a normal proper enter, so it's not a good idea to use it all the time but it can be handy to help work out what's going on or for one-off oddities to get a better fit on the page.

No: as usual, you have it wrong; he meant what he wrote. The user wants to remove what she calls white lines - actually empty paragraphs. The circumflex character anchors the pattern to the beginning of a paragraph and the dollar sign to the end of a paragraph. So ^$ matches an empty paragraph.

Andreas Säger wrote The number formats are taken from the source cells. Anything else can be set in the styles that are generated for the pivot tables. Hi Andreas, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the formatting of the cells in question does not carry forward to the pivot table cells. For example, I have a column of cells that is formatted as [h]:mm, and when the cells in this column are used in the 'data fields' section as 'Sum - Hours', the resulting pivot table number format is numeric (decimal), and I need to format the cells in [h]:mm format each and every time I refresh the pivot table to make sense of these numbers as a time rather than a decimal number.

Brian, that may be how your computer operates; that may be how other computers operate, but each of the computers I've had - including those I've seen of others - operates the way I so stated ;-) On Wed, Aug 1, 2012 at 9:33 PM, Brian Barker b.m.bar...@btinternet.comwrote: At 08:09 01/08/2012 -0500, Anne Noname wrote: if that was the reason for 'save' then it would save in the same folder, rather than some temp [?] folder with some strange name where it's not findable ;-) No application does that. Save in any application will save the revised document over the existing file - in the same folder. If the document has not been saved, Save will give you the Save As functionality instead, landing you initially in whatever default folder you have configured (or some default if you haven't). What you may be doing is opening attachments from received e-mail messages. Such a document will not so far have been saved by you on your system, so it may indeed be held in some difficult-to-find temporary folder and Save will save your carefully edited version in a folder which will be confusing and hard to find. But the solution is simple, of course: you should save the document where you want it to reside before you start editing. Then Save will do exactly what you need and expect. I think this same un-findable folder is used for saving when the program auto-saves; ... No: that will be a different place! The first folder is governed by your e-mail application, but this one by LibreOffice. I trust this helps.

My guess is that it is not so simple as you make it sound tho. Is it something to do with paragraph styles? Note that if a normal enter creates an extra wide gap then try Shift Enter to see if that is closer to what you want. Note that Ctrl Enter creates a new page but shift enter is kinda less than a normal proper enter, so it's not a good idea to use it all the time but it can be handy to help work out what's going on or for one-off oddities to get a better fit on the page.

It's just odd to me that something that is supposed to have been in use for many years isn't mentioned anywhere authoritative (other than perhaps a few Polish books in Miroslaw's memory). Granted the term is relatively obscure, but parellelepiped is in the dictionary and that arguably is even more obscure. Other obscure words include ninnyhammer and flibbertigibbet which I've only just learned. here is a page advertising some stuff on offset printing referring to 'register true': http://www.kba.com/en/sheetfed-offset/service/upgrades/print-quality/plattenstanzen/ here is a page on a patent relating to register-true coordination of a printing cylinder. http://www.patentstorm.us/applications/20090141294/description.html I haven't yet found a page with a good definition (but have only spent 10 mins so far). ah, the Heidelberg glossary mentions 'register true in the definition of 'Folding marks', viz. Marks made to ensure register-true folding. Back to top http://www.heidelberg.com/bin/www/en/glossary/glossaryitems/f?mode=printable perhaps also Miroslav could cite a book or two; don't see what difference it makes if the books are in Polish. if Missouri is the 'show-me' state, does that require translation into Missourian? oh look, German: Im Druckwesen versteht man unter dem Begriff Register, dass die Zeilen der Vorderseite mit denen der Rückseite bzw. die Zeilen nebeneinander liegender Spalten auf einer gemeinsamen Schriftgrundlinie liegen. Hält ein Text nicht Register, empfindet man dies insbesondere im Spaltensatz als unangenehm. Textverarbeitungsprogramme und DTP-Programme beherrschen die Registerhaltigkeit oftmals nur bedingt. roughly and very abbreviated: 'register means that the lines on the front size lie on a common line with the lines on the rear side'. http://www.typo-info.de/registerhaltigkeit.htm plenty of references to 'register halten' and 'registerhaltigkeit'. obscure terms of specialized crafts I guess often don't show up in google or in english.
