View 1 RepliesI use openoffice writer 2.3.9 and when I paste a picture on a document, I can't find any option to get the portrait format. With a right mouse click I get a all lot of options (especially under "picture") but nothing about the format.

I have a Calc spreadsheet that has 3 sheets. The first page is set for Portrait and the remaining pages are Landscape. Currently I am printing each page as a separate print job.I would like to print the entire Calc pages as one job where the printer prints the first page as portrait and the remaining pages as landscape without user intervention.
I do not see any command in the print dialog or in open office dialogs that tell the printer to change orientation. It seems that OpenOffice fails to tell the printer the page orientation. Is there any way to accomplish this. If a macro is required how do you write it and how is it executed?
I am creating a document using Latex and I am using the existing article class "documentclass[twocolumn]{article}" The paper needs to have a two column format, but I have figures that I would like to include in a landscape orientation, possibly on a new page, (they appear too small even if I have them span either 1 or both columns).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that when I create a table in openoffice writer and I create a formula in a cell in order to add all the numbers in a column (ex. <A>+<B>+...) they work fine but then when I save and quit the document and open it up again the formulas dont work anymore and I have to retype them. how can I prevent this from happening?

I have just discovered that I can't print text from libreoffice writer/calc if the layout is set to landscape. The letters seems to have been stretched and printed over each other. If I print the same document in kword/kspread everything is printed as it should be. I have generated a pdf of the document and printed from okular/acroread, even then it's not printed correctly. Although it looks ok in okular/acroread. What else that can be seen is that when it's wrongly printed the printout is printed in the opposite direction compared to when it's printed correctly. I.e. the tail comes first on the paper so to say. Where should I begin to search for faults?

I'm trying to fill in an application form that I downloaded. It has some shaded areas where I can answer questions, but there are
a couple places where the shaded areas are missing.Have you previously applied with the C.B.E? "Readonly content cannot be changed No modifications will be accepted." Can I add a shaded area in so I can fill this in, or can I disable the read only part?
In Open Office Writer 3.2, is there any way that I can change the default "save as" "to" location from Documents folder to some other location (e.g., Desktop) in Lucid? I have looked thru everything I can find under tools>options, but I don't see anything that appears relevant.
Any command line deal I could do from terminal that might accomplish this?

Seems to be a silly question, but does anybody know how to change the title of an pdf document? (even in the console)I searched in Okular, pdfedit, gimp and gnome documentviewer but they dont seem to have a title option.Only open office writer has this option, but this is actually not saved in the pdf title tag.(I need it as Google indexes the title tag and I have there an ugly path name at the moment.)

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a latex document with a default installation of latex/kile. Strangely enough, upon a document change, okular does not reload and display the changes. This is contrary to all other pdf viewers that I have used. Is there anything that can be done? I noticed that in the okular settings, there is an option to "Reload document on file change." Even though it is enabled, okular does not oblige.

It worked ok since a few days ago, now appears this shortcut is backspace. I've tried to reinstall Evince packages but this doesn't work. Since this is really annoying I would like to know how to change this program "Rotate Right" shortcut back to Ctrl + Right.

I'm running Open Office 3.2.0. Does anybody know how to change the background color of an entire Open Office document? I know that you can change the background of a page in the Format >> Page menu, but this does not change the color of the page area inside the margins. Normally it wouldn't make much sense to change the background color when it just gets print to a page anyway. But I actually wanted to export the document to PDF, and was thinking it would make the PDF look better if I could pick the BG color.

View 6 Replies View Relatedi have a computer with 3 users on it, and a folder using samba that everyone on the network has access to. Lets say that, the folder is stored in /etc/sharedfolder. What happens is, when user1 puts a folder in it, then logs off, user 2 attempts to modify it and fails, because permission is set to 755, and they are not in the same group. (even if they were, it should still need to be 775) Anyway, my current solution is, every 5 minutes a crontab changes permission like so: chmod 777 -R /etc/sharedfiles && chown useradmin:superadmin -R /etc/sharedfiles Which works, but seeing as there is getting close to a gig in there, this is a bad solution, as it eats up the computers resources. Solutions that i think might work:
1) create a script that only changes permissions that need be changed.
2) change file permission settings to force all documents to inherit parent document settings

Is there a way to change the default theme/gui for SquirrelMail to something newer and more fresh ? I really like the gui on RoundCube, but SquirrelMail has been here longer and has more features, but I will use RoundCube if I can't change it(end users will be more satisfied if it looks better).
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat im trying to do is build self-contained apps that might work across different GNU/Linux machines with different libraries. Im aware Of LD_LIBRARY_PATH and it works well, however many GUI end-user apps like Gimp, require files from /usr/share and /etc, I know how to change these at build time with --sysconfdir and --datarootdir, however this still hardcodes gimp to look into a hard path for these libraries, so what im wondering is if there is any way to either change where an apps looks for these at runtime, or build an app to look for them in a soft path ( like the current directory for example ).

When I run GTK applications on KDE, they use the QtCurve theme that matches my color and font scheme as configured in the KDE System Settings application.However GTK applications run as superuser use the old default GNOME, regardless of whether I run them with kdesudo, gksudo, or sudo on a terminal. For example, here's gedit run as superuser on top, and under my normal user account on the bottom: Qt applications run with kdesudo display the default Oxygen styling but use my settings when run with sudo on a terminal. Is there any way to configure the stying GTK applications use when run as superuser on KDE?
