2017-06-03 Thread Girvin Herr

zahra,

Yes, I use Slackware Linux exclusively on all of my computers.  I was 
surprised there is a LO 5.2.7.2 released.  I was not expecting that, so 
I have not been keeping up.  I will download it as soon as I can.  
Thanks for mentioning it.


I normally use OpenOffice (AOO) for most of my work, since there are 
some bugs in LibreOffice (LO) since 4.x  that I find frustrating.  
Mainly, that it does not restore my last session properly, where AOO 
still does.  However, AOO no longer bundles the Base Report Generator in 
their package and LO still does.  So I keep LO installed for my 
quarterly database reports that I generate.  Other than that. LO and AOO 
are interchangeable to me.


HTH.

Girvin Herr

Thank you all for sharing your experiences with LO 5.3.3

Which LO version would you suggest I upgrade to from my 3.1?

Is LO 5.2 a safer option with most bugs worked out?
No - the bugs will never "mostly be worked out" - there are thousands of 
reported bugs. I recommend getting on the latest version. You'll get 
lots of perks and new features and experience basically the same number 
of bugs (give or take a few dozen). A nasty bug for me might be a 
"didn't even notice" situation for you. The only way to know is to run 
the version and see if it has any personal "show-stoppers"


I run master for professional daily use and it's fine.

Hi Charles.
It depends upon what you are doing, as from 3.1 there have been some 
changes.

If you use EPS illustrations, you may need to stay with an older version.
If you produce larger documents with more numerous images distributed in 
PDF (books, manuals) it may pay to stay with the last of the 4 series.
If you just do day to day word processing and spread sheets, I would 
recommend the last of the 5.2 series. The 5.3 series may even be fine.


I have not found any of them to be unstable, just bags that affect 
certain areas of use.

There seems to be quite a few posts re: tech glitches with the latest LO.

Is that just with the Linux version or are others finding issues with the
Windows version as well?



I've found changes to graphs in Calc don't often stick unless I move the 
graph a smidgen. They're not lost but just don't display outside edit 
until the graph is shifted.


Possibly fixed in 5.3.3.2? Can't be sure yet.
