[libreoffice-users] How to set defaults in form controls
Hi, I can't seem to find where in Libreoffice Writer I can set defaults for the font etc. in form controls. I set my default font for new documents to Arial 11, but when I insert a form control the font there is always Liberation Sans, Regular, 12. I searched the web for quite some time, but the only "solutions" were to change it afterwards by selecting all the form controls and change it then. Where can I set the default for the font and other properties?

If I increase the number to 200, it happens from A200 onwards. But I haven't found a way to disable OpenCL. If I un-tick the checkbox, it uses the last set value. So the workaround would be to set it to a very high number. -- 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] copying down references to other cells turns text to UPPERCASE
Hi list, I found an annoying bug (or is it a feature?) in Calc. When I create a new document in calc and fill column A in Sheet1 with text. Now I add Sheet2 and put "=Sheet1.A1" in cell A1 of Sheet2. Everything behaves as expected so far. If I copy down A1 in Sheet2 up to A99 everything is fine too, but if I copy it down until A100 or more everything turns UPPERCASE and I cannot change it. I'm using LO 5.1.3.2 at the moment, but I observed this behavior in earlier versions too. Am I doing something wrong or is this really a bug?

[libreoffice-users] "RebootYesNo=No" in silent installation not working anymore
Hi all, I'm just trying to deploy LO 5.1.2 Win x64 in our network and found out that "RebootYesNo=No" doesn't seem to work anymore. According to https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Deployment_and_Migration it should work, but it reboots after the installation regardless. Very annoying since this is not the only software I install in my script. Or is there another command line switch for it since 5.1?

[libreoffice-users] text alignment broken when re-saving RTF document
Hi list, I have problems with the text alignment in LO Writer 5.0.0.5 under Linux and Windows. When I open an RTF document and save it again (with or without making changes) all alignments are lost and everything is aligned to the left. Steps to re-produce: 1. Create new document 2. write "test" in the first line 3. align this line to center or right 4. save as RTF 5. open document again and everything is aligned as it should 6. add more text to the document and save or just "save as" without making changes 7. re-open document and all alignments are gone Is this a known bug and is there a solution to it? I can't use LO 5 like this and have to roll back all installations to 4.3.7. The problem didn't occur in this version.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with LO and the problem lies with the file permissions in his OS. My guess is that he uses some flavour of Linux and he opens the document from the email. I'm using Ubuntu and when I open a document from an email in Thunderbird, it save an read-only copy in /tmp and LO opens the document from there. Can you ask the recipient to save the document first and open it from this location? -- 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

I do this with Remote Desktop on multiple PC at the same time. There are also proper deployment solutions available like OPSI.

Of course my formula is referring to another cell ;-) I changed the formatting of those cells to Date MM/ and everything works now. I "only" had to manually remove all those pesky ' from the beginning of the expression, which appeared after I changed the formatting.

Hi list, =MONTH("10/2013") returns "10" in version 3.5.7, but returns "#VALUE!" in version 4.x The same applies to YEAR() as well.
