I don't quite understand this sentence, and whoever did tell you that the usage of languages would be limited.

You can install all of them and switch between all of them. Diskspace is the limitation here. And you probably don't want to have users switch between UI languages all the time, but rather have different (system level) user-accounts for that, as very likely LO won't be the only software that should display another UI language > Of course, if a center worker needs to switch the menus back to English, or > to their default settings, how easy is it if the person/worker does not > read/speak the language the menu is currently in?

It is possible, but doesn't really make sense.

To make this perfectly clear: You don't need to install the corresponsing UI package to write in a foreign language.

A careful reader pointed out to me that the language cannot be set in Format|Paragraph (i.e. no direct format on a paragraph level exists for this, only in the paragraph style). So while you can assign a language to an entire paragraph using the language item in the Statusbar or using the contextmenu while spell-checking, this sets the character format accordingly. But of course the basic idea still holds true - you can define the language globally, and can gradually override them to a different one. Which method to choose depends on the nature of the document. But when working with different writing systems, very likely you will use the paragraph template method, as usually you'd use a different font as well. ciao Christian -- 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] Question about Calc and user-defined number formats
So, I installed LibreOffice 4.2.0 on a Windows 7 system today and was showing the system owner how to use it. I created a new spreadsheet and added two columns and four rows, the last row being a "total" row that would show the sum of the previous rows. The first row I added was column headings. The second row I added had text in the first cell and the number "50" in the second cell. The third row I added had text in the first cell and the number "40" in the second cell. The fourth row was blank. The fifth row was the "total" row. Cool. So, I selected cells "B2..B5" and used the "Format/Cells" function to change the format to a currency format. I chose the "-$1,234.00" in red format. The numbers in column B were changed accordingly. Then, my friend wanted only the first cell with a number to have a dollar sign and the numbers below it to NOT have a dollar sign. So, I selected cells "B3..B5" and used the "Format/Cells" function to change the format. When the "Format Cells" window appeared, the "Currency" number format was selected, as expected. I went to the "Format code" box and simply removed the "$$" references, leaving the rest of the format code intact. The Category immediately changed to "User Defined", which is fine. Here's the problem: after the category changes to "User Defined", the modified format code, which is still displayed, doesn't apply to the selected cells and I can't find any way to save the modified currency format as a user defined format I can reuse. I tried changing the comment of "User-defined" to something else, thinking that might be used as a category name or something. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Peace...

Nothing happens until you confirm by clicking OK, of course. But if you mean that the format didn't change even after you clicked OK, then the obvious first possibility is that you had made an error in modifying the string in the "Format code" box and had created something that was not a valid format code. In this case, the format of the selected cells would not change and no new format example would be created in the User-defined category. (You can test this by experiment.) ... and I can't find any way to save the modified currency format as a user defined format I can reuse. If the new format had been applied but for some reason not been saved in the Format Cells dialogue, then the Format Paintbrush might be a workaround. But if the format has not been applied to your original selection, then the problem is earlier and this is irrelevant. I trust this helps.

Thanks for posting this. Duh :) Since no message of any kind was issued telling me the modified format might be invalid, it didn't occur to me that I was breaking the format code. I'll experiment with this. Thanks! Peace... Tom -- /When we dance, you have a way with me, Stay with me...

Re: [libreoffice-users] Change character attributes
Well, that too, but Change Case is actually an item in the menu. Dave On 2/14/2014 17:49, Pikov Andropov wrote: Right!! Format > Character > Effects Thanks.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer printing problem
I tried it out using LO 4.2.0.4 under Linux Mint 15 printing the 5th page of a document while the cursor was on page 3. The cursor stayed on page 3.

I also printed a page in the middle of a several page long document. In both cases Writer did not change cursor position, same part of the document remains on screen before and after printing May I ask you to publish the link of your question to the AskLibO forum here?
