Hi All,
Please tell me there is an alternative to Libre office
that actually works right!!!
How about LibreOffice? It works just fine.
Hi Sam,
Unless you really, really try to use it. I have
installed it over two counties and NO ONE has kept it.
It is too counter intuitive and buggy
How do I switch back and forth from portrait to landscape in 7.0?

Easy. Did you look in the help? You make a page break that applies the
"Landscape" style. Thanks for making me look though, it's something
I've wondered about.
I actually have a keeper documents on it. It is counter
intuitive. I don't appreciate having to jump through
flaming hops when all I want to do is write. It makes
me lose my train of conscience and just pisses me off.
In Word pro (Wine), you select page format and it sets the current page
and all subsequent pages. It is intuitive.
Page Breaks are greyed out in 7.0!!!!

I don't know what you're doing, but they aren't greyed out for me.
I tried to install 7 from koji, but that will only work for F33, so I
used the flatpak version.
I download the RPM's from their web site.
And they greyed out things have decided to work, except on new
documents. AAAAAAHHHH!!!!
Do you use tables in LibreOffice?
Deleting a column in a tables with a merged row deletes entire table:

I MUST HAVE WORKING TABLES!
It is like they gave you free car that pulls to the right.
You complain about it, but you can't afford to pay to
put them on your payroll to fix it. Then they come out
with a new version of the new car. Oh Goody! Maybe
the fixed the ... But no, they just added a cool new
stereo. You did not pay the ransom. (And they do
deserve to get paid for their work.)
And LibreOffice WILL NOT TAKE INPUT FROM USERS. Look
at the overwhelming pleading for writer division tabs:
Division/section-per-tab (similar to Lotus WordPro):
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33173
And the kicker is they already have the code base for
division tabs under calc!
Libre Office frustrates me to no end. They only thing I
can think of that your experience differs from mine
and my customers is that you must not be much of a
power LibreOffice user.
Fedora is a wonderful example of Kaisen and open source
achieving wonderful things. LibreOffice and Wine have the
antidote. I can barely keep food on my table. I can't
afford to put developers on my payroll.
