[libreoffice-users] Mismatch between installed version number and update icon message
Dear list I'm running Mint 14 and wonder if this is this a glitch in the LibO updates indicator? I recently installed LibO4.0.4 and the update icon is still visible in the top right hand corner of any component window (e.g. Writer, Calc, etc.). When I select the icon the message is "LibreOffice 4.0.4 is available. The installed version is LibreOffice 4.0.3.3." When I select "About" from the Help menu, the version number is also given as 4.0.3.3. and yet, according to Synaptic, the version I am running is 4.0.4.2-2. I appreciate this isn't serious, I'm just wondering if something has gone amiss in the 4.0.4 release which gives this misidentification of the version being run.

[libreoffice-users] advanced notes question
Hi all Hopefully someone on the list can answer this for me. I received a document (OpenOffice format) from someone who edited it using Microsnot software and inserted notes into the document. However, I don't see those notes when I open the document in LibreOffice. I understand from the documentation that LibreOffice certainly does have an "advanced notes feature" (http://www.libreoffice.org/features/writer/ - 10th paragraph) but can't find where to switch it on. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated. b -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

[libreoffice-users] 4.0.4win32 download link hacked or problems
Today, I downloaded libreoffice4.0.4.win32.exe twice. The first time I used the big download link from the libroffice.org webpage (which first linked to the donation page). I couldn't find the md5 hash on the libreoffice.org website, though I eventually found the md5 hash for the experimental 64bit version (and downloaded it and found the checksum matched that new download). So I googled to the 32 bit version hash, and found links which all gave a very different checksum beginning f21..., although the download from the libreoffice.org website said it completed and gave a checksum of 3645B0ACFD2E6A7CA380804723D0C94A. Turns out the download through somthing like nexxus was less than 2 mb. I of course deleted the file as possible malware, but thought you should know. And suggest that checksums be made available easily on the libreoffice.org for 32bit versions, not just experimental or 64bit versions. Freeware sites are often targets for malware, as I found out long ago downloading xbmc. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-users] advanced notes question
Is the document opening in read-only mode? If you opened it directly from an email it might be -- this happens to me all the time. If that's the case, you'll want to save it first and then (re)open it. On 6/25/2013 12:31, Mirosław Zalewski wrote: On 25/06/2013 at 18:04, Brian Barker wrote: Found it. Thanks.

If /Microsnot/ actually means /Microsoft/ maybe it just can't be done with LO?

Re: [libreoffice-users] advanced notes question
Hi :) Brian's answers are usually right. It seems a few people missed it though. LibreOffice now calls these "comments". Try View | Comments. and then Now you need to tick Tools | Options... | LibreOffice Writer | View | Display | Comments. Then the menu item should become active.

Re: [libreoffice-users] advanced notes question
Hi Mirosław :) Ouch, i only just saw your post after writing my response to a couple of other responses that must have appeared after yours. Surely Brian's answer fixes the issue though?
