Hi

>What do I need to do for LibO to accept the shortcut keys,please?

An alternative is to ignore the LO settings and just use the native
operating system special keys. These then apply to ALL apps, not just LO.

If you are under Linux they are called the "Compose" sequences:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key
http://fsymbols.com/keyboard/linux/compose/

You specify a keyboard key to be your "compose" key (generally called
the "Multi_key") (e.g., RightWin) and then press the sequences to get
the desired character.

e.g.,

é =   

The combinations are defined in
 
/usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose

under openSUSE 11.4, YMMV.

Here is an example of the definition:

  : "é" U00E9 # LATIN SMALL LETTER E
WITH ACUTE

Defining the Multi_key assignment can be a trick, but under openSUSE
11.4 it is easy: Menu > Configure Desktop > Input Devices > Keyboard >
Advanced > Compose key position

HTH, cheers, Andy

Hmmm. I am on:

LibreOffice 3.3.1
OOO330m19 (Build:8)
tag libreoffice-3.3.1.2

*locate -i registry* shows the tree

/usr/lib/libreoffice/basis3.3/share/registry

as well as a bunch of others, but no user tree and no
*registrymodifications.xcu* *anywhere.

I also tried

*find -iname registrymodifications**

just in case, with zero results.

No biggie, I now know how to control it (Go to full screen before
closing LO), so that is good enough for now. Thanks for your help and ...

TGIF!

:-)

Cheers, Andy

I went looking for that sort of a file:

tm2t:~ # locate .xcu|less
tm2t:~ # locate .xcu|grep -i mod|less
tm2t:~ # locate .xcu|grep -i reg|less
tm2t:~ # locate .xcu|grep -i andy|less

There are a lot of .xcu's on the system, but none with a name resembling
"registry" or "modifications" and NONE in /home/andy/.libreoffice...

Yet another mystery of life to be solved in due course...

Thanks again, Andy

Fwd: Re: [libreoffice-users] Fwd: Saving Window sizing

2011-09-23 Thread Andy Lavarre
Make that:

The application always opens to the size in which it was when it was
last CLOSED.

It has nothing to do with actually saving the files. It just reopens to
same the size it was when it last closed (full screen or smaller,
whichever was in place when the application closed).

So what would be nice to have would be to save the window size with the
individual file, not the application as a whole.

Thanks again, Andy

Hi, thank you for your reply.

I am under Linux openSUSE 11.4 with KDE 4.6.00.

I did some experimenting. The following is reproducible:

1. Open Document A (DocA). Resize it, e.g., Large (but not full screen).

2. Change its content and save it.

3. Close LO completely.

4. Open DocB. It opens to the last saved size of DocA, NOT the size in
which it was saved.
=
a. Now make DocB full screen, change something, save it, closeout LO.

b. Open another document, e.g., DocA. Now it opens full screen (the size
in which DocB was saved) not the smaller size in which DocA was saved.
=
OK, now save them as .ods files, not .xls files. Repeat the experiment.
NO change. The new file always opens to the size of the last previously
saved file, not its own size setting.
=
What I was hoping to be able to do is have each document save its own
sizing. Is there any way to do that?

Thanks again,

Best regards, Andy

[libreoffice-users] Fwd: Saving Window sizing

2011-09-22 Thread Andy Lavarre
Hello. How do I save a window size in LibreOffice (LO)?

I try resizing and saving the document and closing and restarting LO,
but when I open the document it has reverted to the original small size.
I then tried creating a new document, saving it as a template, making it
the default template, but still no joy, the window opens in the original
small size.

Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
Andy
