Envelopes print to wrong size paper

Larry Gusaas — 2011-01-06T21:06:14

Has anyone looked at http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=108961
This is a regression from OOo 3.1 but it has a Target milestone of OOo 3.4. I thought that 
regressions should be showstoppers, but apparently they are not.

The behaviour is different in OOo 3.2 and OOo 3.2. See my description in the bug report I made 
that has been closed as a duplicate. http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=116063

Mac Java update breaks OOo

Larry Gusaas — 2010-10-23T17:01:10

The latest Java update (1.6.0_22) breaks OOo. Java does not work.
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=115180

There is discussion at:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=34853#p161115  and
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=35179

Some people have used the workaround listed in the bug report and have had further problems 
with it.

I was asked how to undo the patch but I do not know the Unix command line. Would someone post 
the instructions for doing so?

I haven't tried the patch yet because I do not like doing anything in Terminal unless I know 
how to undo it.

Compiling OpenOffice on Mac OS X 10.6

Tim Schuermann — 2010-05-23T11:55:18

Hi!

I'm trying to compile the current developer snapshot (DEV300_m78) on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard). 

At the moment I get the following errors:

dmake:  makefile.mk:  line 61:  Error: -- Include file /Users/tim/DEV300_m78/solver/300/unxmacxi.pro/inc/external/neon/version.mk, not found


and:

dmake:  Error code 1, while making 'Shell escape'


and:

Reason(s):

ERROR: error 65280 occurred while making /Users/tim/DEV300_m78/l10n/source
ERROR: error 65280 occurred while making /Users/tim/DEV300_m78/ucb/source/ucp/webdav


Are these known errors? Could anyone help?

Shall we ship OOo with internal python on Mac?

Christian Lohmaier — 2010-05-19T16:55:57

Hi *,

as the baseline of Mac OSX 10.4 only ships with python version 2.3,
OOo is compiled against that version. This is not a problem when
running python from within OOo, you can run python macros on
10.4/10.5/10.6 with no problem with a default installation of Mac OSX.

There is a big "BUT" however:
On never versions of Mac OSX, it is not possible to run standalone
python with pyuno. I.e. you cannot run python from outside OOo and run
your script. You'll get "incompatible version" style errors. (newer
versions of Mac OSX ship with the 2.3 basic framework, but only have
python2.5 and 2.6 launchers. I failed to get it to "import uno" on
10.6, no matter what tricks with environment variables I tried. Maybe
there's some trick to get it running, but I gave up. I'm neither a
python nor a Mac user, so there might still be a way though.
(Again: running python macros from within OOo is not a problem, python
loaded via OOo's library gets things right)

Eric Bachard made me aware on IRC that the python in OOo's sourc

Google soc 2010 feedback

Ян Программист — 2010-03-04T15:56:27

Hi. I am searching for feedback about following ideas against applying them
in Google soc 2010:


   1. Smart zoom (additional controls would be shown rather font resize)
   2. Gnash movie support for OpenOffice
   3. Multimedia add-ons support for Adobe Reader targeted export
   4. MathML formula editor with Ribbon interface + exporting a MS Word doc
   with Word compatible formula editor format [MathML to OLE binary converter]
   5. Document review services threw OpenOffice tools & email/NFS/Samba
   share(s)
   6. OpenOffice collaboration support with replication against project
   management tool (Redmine with openoffice web preview plug-in?)
   7. Provide a translation command in Writer menu:
      1. Using Lingvo web site
      2. Using off-line dictionary (not multilingual!)
   8. Note: translation results should appear in (a set of) dialog based
   window(s) - to ensure that nested occurrences are separated
   9. In-place translation of word in Impress without exiting presentation
   mode:
      1. W

Mac donations from Miyahara, Toru and Komachi, Mamoru to Nakata, Maho (two dual core 2.66GHz Xeon 4G memory, two 1T HDDs, and Snow Leopard)

Maho NAKATA — 2010-02-15T06:16:37

Hello all

I'd like to announce that there were donations from
MIYAHARA Toru, CEO of http://begi.net/ in 2009/1/27 - 29.
 * two dual core 2.66GHz Intel Xeon based Mac (we are not sure which one :-))
 * two 1T bytes HDD: Hitach HDT7201010SLA360

KOMACHI Mamoru,
 * One license of Snow Leopard and Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac in 2009/9.

I'm very sorry that my announce is delayed, just I cannot stop my OOo building system
no room for new machines etc.

The machine is very silent. I was really surprised. Now I'm setting up.
I installed Snow Leopard on that system. It is really cute.

Many thanks for Miyahara-san and Komachi-san's donations, and many 
thanks for your good works on OpenOffice.org

Best,

3.2.0 ppc onhttp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX?

Jack Howarth — 2010-02-12T14:17:06

   Is there a reason that the PPC builds on ooopackages.good-day.net
only include RC releases but never the final GM releases of a given
OpenOffice release. While it doesn't matter for Intel of course, it
would be extremely helpful if builds of the GM releases could be posted
for PPC MacOS X since this appears to be the only source for these.
Thanks in advance for any clarifications.
         Jack

Popup menu check state drawing incorrect on Mac.

zhiy xue — 2010-01-26T06:29:54

Hi,

    Checked popup menu state can't be draw correct. All menu state is  
correct because I replace ShowNativePopupMenu to StartPopupMode in  
function PopupMenu::ImplExecute will paint correct. Anyone knows the  
bug?

Leopard & OOo & java 1.6 32 bits

Laurent Godard — 2009-12-23T17:30:33

Hi all

first, i'm a beginner in mac os world

I have an uno extension that fail to deploy due to java version under 
leopard. I need java 1.6 32 bits and only 64 bits is available under leopard

I tried this approach 
http://blog.adsdevshop.com/2008/02/26/installing-the-jdk-16-on-mac-os-x/
It installs correctly and in a terminal , java -version is ok

But, going to OOo java preferences, it says that no suitable java 
version is found in the directory, so i cannot use this 32 bits JVM

So under leopard, it seems that java 1.6 based uno component can't be 
deployed. Is it a known problem ?

Do you have any hint that would enable use java 1.6 32 bits under Leopard ?

thanks in advance

laurent

ps: there is no problem under snow leopard as java 1.6 32 bits is available

OOo on external DVi device with ugly fonts -> unusable

Joerg Sievers — 2009-11-20T10:54:38

Hi!

I have created issues #107076 for the issue that you can not use under 
some circumstances the external display with OOo. The UI font and 
documents are so small that you need to zoom the Mac +300% :-(

http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=107076

As I understood Herbert (hdu) he has an idea how to fix it.

Please, vote for it otherwise you cannot use your Mac sometimes [e.g. if 
external DVi switch is being used] for presentation... :-(

Thx,
Jogi

Mac OSX 10.6 Hide from Application menu is different from cmd-H

Prof Will Stewart FREng — 2009-11-12T12:09:58

This may seem a detail, but, whilst the cmd-H keystroke hides the OpenOffice application just fine in all circumstances, selecting 'Hide Openoffice.org' from the application menu, which is nominally the same, does not work reliably.  The application window is prone to disappear for a moment and immediately re-appear (in the background).

Problem with native file picker

Uwe Altmann — 2009-11-12T15:12:02

Hi
Can someone reproduce an error I get in 3.2.m4 MacIntel:

Menu "File" > Open
Put something into spotlight search field (upper right corner of the
file picker window)
select a OOo-file from search result and click "open" to open it.

The file will not be opened and OOo kind of freezes - i.e. selecting a
menu entry works (menus open etc.) but nothing happens when a menu
command is selected.

"Quit" after a few minutes brings up the beachball cursor and then
crashes into Document Recovery where it gets stuck.

I would like to help with OpenOffice documentation

Arthur Snoke — 2009-11-12T02:17:05

I was given this as the mailing list address for the Mac porting project. 
I don't know if I can send a message directly to this address or if I have 
to first subscribe in some way.  One way to find out is to try it.

I use both Openoffice and NeoOffice on the Mac.  Recently I reported a 
"bug" that turned out only to be out-of-date documentation (HTML 
compatibility is no longer in Tools - Options - Load/Save but under 
OpenOffice - Preferences).  I am willing to help update documentation like 
this -- and perhaps help in other ways.

Build-Debug

Gallomimia — 2009-10-30T06:01:27

I suppose it's too much to ask to see an xCode project file for open
office. How can I run a debugger with this bad boy? I want to start
looking for sources and tracing the stack calls for a few issues on
the tracker. Not that I think I can actually solve any of these bugs,
but perhaps I can at least start to learn about how the source is
organized, and specifically how it interfaces with the MacOS X
environment.

Someone please point me in the right direction. I'm not afraid to read
a whole pile of documentation on HowTo but I need to make sure it's
current, and my searching usually turns up 5+ year old docs on how to
do something that's obsolete in this project. I'm working with the 320
line of code.

Thanks

Gallo~

Intel VS PPC

Gallomimia — 2009-10-25T08:27:33

New to this list. I should certainly read through some of the archives
but I had an issue come up recently that is going to spark this
question in my mind, which leads to my fingers, which leads to this
email which leads to this list.

First of all, why are there separate versions of OOo for PPC and Intel
macs? Can't a Universal Binary be created? Why is the version 3.1.1
not at release status for PPC while it is for intel? It's been 2
months... And the language specific builds on p2p distribution are
french and german but not english. No spanish? I digress.

The requirements for the mac version on the main website are clearly
wrong. It says intel CPU required, when there's a whole separate build
with separate languages and versions for PPC vs Intel. It also says
400 megs of HD space when the program itself is slightly more, and the
downloaded dmg will take up space before it's deleted. Better to say
500-600 but that's a moot point. Has anyone actually tried running
this program with only half a gig of ram?

Closing document causes OOO320_m1 to quit on Mac

Larry Gusaas — 2009-10-12T21:34:52

Using the latest developer snapshot, build OOO320_m1 on a MacBook, OS 
10.6.1.
When I close a document (only one document open) OO.o  quits, rather 
than staying open in dock. This is a regression from OO.o 3.1.1.

I have filed an issue (Issue 105753)

Bad PPC link

Ryan Lovett — 2009-09-30T19:07:30

On http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/download/aqua-PPC.html, the Aqua
download link uses "ihttp" rather than "http". Also, could links to the
good-day packages be added to http://download.openoffice.org/other.html ?
It would be handy for English speaking users (and other users whose
languages are translated at good-day) to have the PPC downloads readily
accessible without having to google for PPC OpenOffice downloads.
Currently other.html only has French and Japanese 3.1.1 links.
