It takes down all open calc windows.

Just for clarification, if you create a new spreadsheet file and delete
cells in the same manner does Calc crash?  (I.E. is the crash specific to
that operation in that particular file or occurs with any file.)


Bruce,

I tried it on a new file and I worked like I would expect, no problems. 
So I tried it on the file that has been giving me trouble and IT WORKED.


At this point I am going to watch and see what happens for awhile. I 
will contact you again if I get another error. I will also try to get 
the error message that pops up.


Thanks,
Jay

What is the file format and origin of the worksheet?


The files are all .ods The spread sheets have been around in there present
format for several years (OpenOffice and before). It has not been a problem
until recently.

Problem solved, I had two spread sheets open and when I exited out of

[libreoffice-users] Disappearing Page Reference

2015-01-06 Thread Jay Ridgley

Folks,

I have a multi-page spread sheet that has page references for selected 
cells. Lately I have noticed that the page identifier is dropped from 
the referencing cell. I will include an example:


 Original definition: =Summary.E28
 Resulting entry:  =E28

As long as the cell is not updated the resulting value remains what it 
was when the definition was created; so unless I happen to look at them 
 I am totally unaware that any thing is wrong.


There are about 20 cells that are in single a column on the target page, 
all of them lose the page reference. This has happened multiple times 
and in other areas of the spread sheet as well. I am at a loss of what 
could be the problem.


Ideas are appreciated.

I am using Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS with a Cinnamon desktop and
 LibreOffice 4.2.72 Build ID: 420m0(Build: 2)

Install the whole meta package "libreoffice" with Writer, Calc, Math,
Draw, Impress and Base. Don't try to be extra smart. The components of
libreoffice are no separate programs. They are modules of one soffice
executable. Leaving out any of its component may have unforeseen
consequences.



That fixed it whatever the problem was.

[libreoffice-users] Problems with writer

2014-11-21 Thread Jay Ridgley

Folks,

One of my systems has developed a problem with writer and I am at a loss 
as how to fix it.


I get the following message when I try to open writer:

Component cannot be loaded, possibly broken or incomplete installation.
Full error message:
loading component library failed:
file:///usr/lib/libreoffice/program/../program/libswlo.so.

I looked on the net and the suggested fix for this message was reinstall
libre-office, and libre-writer, so I did that. I still get the message 
what else did I miss?


The other two systems I am using both work fine with writer. All of them 
work fine with calc.


I am running Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS with
LibreOffice 4.2.6.3 (Build ID:420m0(Build 3)
all updates have been applied.

Regards,
Jay

I'm curious to find out what components of LO are used most by the people on

might also help us in learning new ways to integrate the different components.
For myself, my approximate usage is:

Writer (85% of my use of LO)
Calc(10%)
Impress  (3%, Maybe four to five presentations a year)
Base   (once a year to print out labels for my Christmas cards)
Draw  (What's that?)

Virgil




Good Morning Folks,

My usage is:

Calc: 90+%
Write: 7+%
Impress; <1%
Base: <1%
Draw: 2%

I use LO on 3 systems and like it very much. I also advocate replacing M$ Office 
as often as I can!

Re: [libreoffice-users] Start Up Question **SOLVED**

Folks,

In attempting to discover why I had this problem and no one else did, I found 
that the way I was closing the file was by EXITING Libre Office not CLOSING the 
file. The package works as documented; mea culpa.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Cross Platfrom Support Question **CLOSED Thread**

To those who responded,

I guess the bottom line is that currently LibreOfffice does not and will not 
without a LOT of work support mobile devices.


I am not a mobile user, so I have no frame of reference.  It does appear that 
this feature (mobility) will be required at some future point, however.

Hi :)
Ahhh, that explains a lot.  I think there is some work-in-progress for an 
Android version but ii think it needs more devs working on it.  Not sure about 
an iOS version.  I was wondering if there was some quick work-around that might 
get a result more quickly but it's fairly clear there isn't.

I assume that mobile devices are too low spec to have much chance of running a 
"Virtual Machine" on even to install a VERY light-weight distro such as SliTaz 
(30 Mb) or Puppy or DSL or TinyCore or something?  I managed to get LibreOffice working 
in SliTaz on a full desktop machine but didn't try any of the others.

So we really need to find an ODF viewer for the iOS and hope that's enough?  
With Google-docs being just for 'emergencies'.

Hi :)
Is there a different program that can edit ODFs on iPads and such?

I guess the obvious one is Google Docs which i think is now part of Google
Drive.  Are there others?

Also is the reason there isn't an iOS version just down to needing someone
to do a "build" or "make" or "compile", or whatever, or is there a
technical
reason why LO won't work on iOS yet?



​My 2cent:

The framework used on "regular" systems (like gtk) are completely different
than the one used on mobile devices, both iOS and Android. Although some
framework tries to reduce the gap (I'm thin​​king about Qt), last time I
checked LO sources it was not designed this way.

It's not a matter of "just" rebuilding, it would need a lot of work, first
redesigning the UI to work with mobile device (both having something
adapted to touch interface AND built using framework for mobile OS), and
moving the codebase (or rewriting from scratch) for objective C (the
language used for the iOS SDK).

Even funnier, an Android port would be easier to do if LO was still in Java
(insert laughters here :) )

tl;dr: having an iOS version of Libreoffice pretty much mean redoing
everything (in my opinion)

Of course, this doesn't answer the question of app available today for
editing ODF files on mobile devices in general... seeing that even google
drive (at least on Android) feels clunky, I would advise against doing real
work on tablets...

[libreoffice-users] Cross Platfrom Support Question

2013-08-24 Thread Jay Ridgley

Folks,

There are a group of us who need to use LibreOffice, however, we do not all use 
the same type of hardware.


One of our members uses an iPad. When she tried to download 4.x from the website 
she received a message that said:


"there were no regular installation files available and to make another 
selection"

She is running MAC OSX How should she proceed?

We can't afford to purchase new hardware, yet we need to be able to share the 
information and to maintain it as well.


I am on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and am a happy camper.

Thanks,
Jay
