So, at the moment, sorry but you DO need the Java Runtime environment as
provided from a JDK.  Otherwise, I would say simply don't use Base and don't
select a Java runtime--but not sure if on the OS X builds you get the
option. When I get a moment I'll actually check.



No, unfortunately, you don't get the choice irrespective of whether or
not you use Base. There are hooks in at least the Writer module that
require Java instantiation, and possibly also a bundled extension which
requires a Java environment to be detected (NLPSolver) for Calc.


There are no hooks in the Writer module that require Java per se.  There 
are hooks in various places that extensions written in Java could tap into.


AFAICS, the only bundled extension coming with stock LO 5.1 for Mac that 
is written in Java is the NLPSolver, but it should not require Java to 
be available during start of LO, only when trying to use that feature.


But one can have (non-bundled) extensions installed from previous 
versions of LO that require Java, even so that they require Java 
directly at (first) start of LO 5.1.

As said above, I did ask this last year in April and even before that.
Mr. Barker suggested minimizing the window.
Actually, that clears the view ... but only once and upon the next
operation the same thing happens again.
I have to "adjust" the view literally hundreds of times a day.

I am really wondering why this happens in the first place. It is
extremely annoying.
The SAME thing happens on at least 6 different computers I have tried: 3
Windows (XP, 7, 10) and 3 Linux (xubuntu, Mint) machines.
All have different hardware configurations.
AND ... on ALL machines this behavior appears ONLY with LibreOffice (I
use mostly Writer and Calc and so do not know about the other components)
Since this behavior affects only LibreOffice on multiple different
machines with different OSs ... I have difficulties recognizing it as a
hardware problem.
I tried to change all settings (including the memory settings) that
might be involved under Options.
So far nothing has helped.
Is there really no way to tell LibreOffice to behave like all other
applications (dozens!) on my computers?

Thank you
Thomas

   Huh???

   On the first question, there's a box in which I cannot input
anything - I still don't know why.

That first screen is introductory. The question gets answered in detail by
responses to the questions asked on the second screen.

BTW, To the survey's author: If the answer to question 1 is Never then
question 2 potentially has no valid response.

   Well, the only clickable buttons were to allow to continue the
survey.

   I attempted to input my thoughts in #1, but it wasn't possible for
some reason.

   Maybe I wasn't allowing the correct (java or whatever) access;
  so here's a suggestion:
 how about a survey of simple text rather than whatever system is
now in play?

The survey is published and open for response from the link(s) given.

It is a simple web browser input form with multiple "guided" dropdowns or
radio button widgets, and  includes several free response fields.

To repeat...

Directly here at
http://user-weave.com/survey/b0edf831f89d4d23bb3d6b6ba3e574a9?12

Or with a brief introduction and linked from a GoogleDocs landing:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1W6aIpZhQo7j33f8W3p_nXLAd6tamwjtUxZFx77jArcU/edit

If the link does not respond please try again or try a different browser.

Stuart

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LO5.1 on Linux - Opening Writer document takes >1hr

[Paolo Debortoli]

as told by others, I am using LibreOffice  5.1  on linux ubuntu,  centrino 
laptop...  I don't have slow downs (but with smaller documents and and ssd 
drive).  I guess it can be a matter of hdd or document size.
