The relevant items were in the Sig area. I did a cut and paste and lost
the formating but you get the idea. I don't have a clue why nothing else
showed for you. Very curious.

I have a question, if someone is not subscribed to this list so that
they will not see replies to their email, then why is it that their
email is even visible to those reading this list? And furthermore, what
is the point? It just seems to me that if they are not subscribed, then
their email simply should not make it through to this list in the first
place. Am I just dumb that I don't get this?

[discuss] Call for Nominations for Community Council Election

Posted: 13 Oct 2009 07:47 AM PDT

Hi all,

Louis Suarez-Potts wrote (13-10-2009 16:47) 

I would like to nominate Juergen Schmidt as candidate for the Community
Council.
Juergen is well known as lead of the API project (and co-lead before)
and in that position promoting the importance of more intuitive and
better APIs among the developers. He worked on the UNO, SDK and DevGuide.
He also is co-lead of the extensions project from the beginning. This
project is an important bridge to many, often non-corporate, developers
and contributors for the project.
Juergen also makes valuable contributions to the marketing project, for
example with organising the OpenOffice.org contribution for the FOSDEM
and promotional goods... T-shirts :-)
He is active at various levels in the project and whenever time allows,
with an open mind to reach out. I consider this very useful for a
position in the council, therefore I hope Juergen that will accept this
nomination.

Looking at his background, the Code Contributor as well as the Product
Development seat could be his place in the Community Council for the
next years.

Best regards,
Cor

[discuss] Incubator project proposal - OpenOfficeMouse

Posted: 12 Oct 2009 12:04 PM PDT

Hi Elizabeth,

The User Feedback Program has been amazingly useful. It's given us a
much better understanding of how people actually use the OOo
applications rather than forcing us to theorize about it. For example,
in Writer, people are 5.2x more likely to use the toolbar icon to Bold
text than they are to use the hotkey. However, they're 3.8x more likely
to use the context menu or the hotkey to Cut text than they are to use
the toolbar icon. Since hotkeys are faster than toolbars and Bold is
used 5.4x more often than Cut, this tells us that it's more important to
assign a button in a more prominent position to Bold than we do to Cut.

Of course, the users can assign any function to any button they like,
but the information is very useful in creating the defaults. In other
news, we tested the OOmouse with a Mac for the first time this evening.
While we will definitely need a little software to be written in order
for OS/X to recognize the other buttons, the good news is that the basic
L1 and R1 buttons worked without a hitch.

Thanks for the thumbs up, Sophie and Alexandro. FYI: we will have a
mouse or two to show in Orvieto.

With regards,
Theo

Hi,

the answer was exactly to the mail I have quoted. That's what quotes are
for. ;-)

Please don't reply to "de".
I use it for the OOo lists and only rarely read other mails sent to it.

[discuss] Ideas ...

Hi Denis,

I don't understand what you mean? Are you talking about the
"registration" after you start OOo for the first time? If yes, this
shouldn't happen. Try to do a "repair installation", this should fix
this problem.
 

Did you check under "Tools > Options > Load/Save" if you have selected
the corresponding MS File format is chosen for each document type
(text document as MS Word, spreadsheet as MS Excel and so on). And make
sure, that you've unchecked the entry "always warn if document isn't
saved in ODF or default format". To save these changes you have to
click on "OK".
 

If you go to "File > Save as..." you can tick the checkbox with the
description "Save with password". When you check this you can enter a
password in the next step. But be aware, that you need the password
everytime you want to open this file. If you forget your password, the
file is lost - since you can't recover the password.

Hope this helps.

Sigrid
