Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 4.2 Proposal.
Hi :) I wonder if the file is stored in some weird format such as the MS formats? The native ODF formats seem to work just fine :) If it is a case of the format not working properly then it's still worth posting a bug-report about it. Part of the bug-reporting process is to see if there is already a bug-report and if so then you might be able to help by letting them know version numbers and things that might help pin-point the problem. This wiki-guide helps with all that; https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport Regards from Tom :) On 21 May 2014 14:46, Cley Faye wrote: > 2014-05-21 15:06 GMT+02:00 Gilbert Wuytack : > > > LibreOffice 4.2 offers a new Start screen, and shows a preview of the > last > > documents. > > > > Indeed, that is correct but I do not think it's good that everyone can > > open password protected documents without entering the password from this > > preview! > > > > This gives me a sense of insecurity and wonder whether it would not be > > better asking the password if the file is protected by a password. > > > > I just did the following: > - Started LibreOffice > - Created a new document, typed a few words, then saved it > password-protected > - Closed it to return to the start screen: no preview image, and when > clicked it ask for the password > - Closed libreoffice, started it again: still no preview image, still > asking for password > I'd say that the start screen doesn't bypass the password protection > mechanism in any way: it doesn't disclose a preview of the document, nor > keep an unencrypted copy anywhere. > > Maybe I misunderstood, but I don't get the problem here. > > -- > 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 > -- 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

Indeed. There must be another problem with Gilberts situation.
