Re: [libreoffice-users] Inserting A3 pages in an A4 document
Hi Stephen, perhaps there are other ways, but I would do it as follows: 1. Create a new page style (e.g. named A3) for your big pages 2. At the place where you want to insert the A3 page chose the menu command "Insert->Manual Page break" and in the following dialog select "page break" and choose style A3. 3. behind the A3 page insert another page break back to default page style.

Re: [libreoffice-users] captions and headings
Hi Gary, you can use a variable in the figure caption. At first you should create the related variable, e.g. "Figure", from the menu Insert->Field->Other. In the Dialog choose type "Number range" and enter "Figure" as name and "Figure+1" as value. Select format "Arabic" and level 1. For all the following figures you just choose "Figure" under Selection.

Re: [libreoffice-users] How to make this equation?
Hi,

This looks same and is even a bit shorter:
v_0 = left none d over dt g left (t,c_1,c_2 right ) right
rline_{t=t_0}
{}-brackets are one required for longer expressions.

To make the following steps more easy, go to the notes view of your presentation and select the upper frame with the slide view and just remove it. After that you also can move and resize the lower text frame as you like. If you can't remove or resize the frames: right click -> position and size -> uncheck protection.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Impress: how to set the "default" number of slides per page when printing handouts?
Hi Stephan, I don't know about the latest version, but in LO 3.6.7 it should work this way: Open the handout tab and in the task pane select "layout", right-click on the layout with your desired number of slides and apply to all selected (which must have been done defore).

It allows a clean layout of long line like here: TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT page TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT page In LO it looks like this: TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT page TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXTpage From the new feature list I also would expect this should work in LO 3.5, but I cannot get it to work, too. Actually, in the tab pane of the paragraph it is possible to set a tab in the margin area and when entering text, the paragraph mark jumps to that position, but the line break still occurs before that tab at the end of the paragraph. I also tried to use a paragraph with right indent and so set the tab stop in that area before the page margin (As I remember this is the way it worked in MSO). Also here, the tab can be set but without having the desired effect.

[libreoffice-users] Installation problem LO 3.5 beta
Hello, for testing of previously reported bugs I tried to install LibO 3.5 beta in parallel to OpenOffice 2.4.3 and LibO 3.3.4. Before this installation attempt I had removed an existing (and working) parallel installation of LibO 3.4. But the new installation always fails with the message: Runtime error! Program ...\unopkg.bin This program has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact ... After pressing OK it shows unopkg.bin has crashed Also when running soffice.exe it always says LOdev3.5 has crashed. Does anyone have an idea how to get it installed? I have already tried to run the installation without Java or anti-virus software, but no change. Here comes some data of my system: Software to be installed: LibO-Dev_3.5.0beta2_Win_x86_install_multi.msi from http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/ Installed: LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401) tag libreoffice-3.3.4.1 OpenOffice 2.4.3 System: 32 Bit Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 AMD Turin 64x2 Mobile Technology TL-58 Thanks, Karl -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@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

As a workaround you can make that space very tiny, e.g. 1pt.

Hi,
even in a mailing list it would be polite to see a kind of
salutation and your real name.

If you want to do just that replacement you don't need regular
expression, just replace /22./ by /022./
If you want to replace any digit try
/[:digit:]{2}./ by /0&/
"&" is a placeholder that stands for the search result, as explained
in the LO help for regular expressions.
