Making a simple form in LibreOffice Base to do the equivalent of a minimal Google Form, but local instead of sending the data to Google.
Here's where I'm stuck: How do I rig up a button that saves the current record *and* starts a new one? Do I have to write a macro for this?
# "Using LibreOffice and other Free software for documents as a lawyer"
I was asked recently about how I get on using LibreOffice for document-related legal work, and I promised to write down some thoughts.
The short answer is that I use a mix of LibreOffice and other FOSS tools, and I’m very positive about it, with no particular concerns.
If you have questions, please do ask!
It looks like #libreoffice #impress does not react to the forward and back buttons on my mouse at all. Would be very handy to be able to use that as a presenter though. Is there any way I can set this up easily? (And maybe a bug report to make it happen by default?)
@libreoffice is that broken just for me or a missing feature in general?
Ouch. I was really happy to discover LibreOffice Impress Remote app for iOS - but the last update was in 2014 and it doesn't run on current iOS :(
Not reflected in the current docs it seems, ping @libreoffice
Any iOS developers with spare time wanting to get it up to speed? :)
So I'm using LibreOffice 25.8.2.2 on Fedora Workstation 43 GNOME 49.
For some privacy reasons I'll not be able to attach the entire PDF. However, I can show the page 15 that I was trying to open using LibreOffice Draw in image form.
It contains a combination of Bengali & English language and numerals.
EDIT : This previous issue of mine is still not fixed yet -> mastodon.social/@javalps/11534…
When can I expect the new version?

@libreoffice Do you know if odfdom-java is maintained? It has a bunch of outdated dependencies, but there seems to be at least some activity in the source repository.
There is also something odd with the versioning, where there is a 1.0.0-beta from 2019, but the latest release is from 2023 is 0.12.0. This causes dependency check tools to be somewhat confused.
Or is there perhaps an alternative library I should be using instead to connect to a running instance of Libreoffice?
@systeemkabouter@maljaars.net @libreoffice Same here - thanks a lot for this great piece of software!

Independent fromme fromme this or intially, a good start for institutions still hanging in MS365 or so can start with LibreOffice free file formats, so that there is an overall interoperability in data exchange.
Thats mainly replacements for Word, PowerPoint and Excel.

Yes yes. My bad. I'm running version 25.8.1.1. When I open a .csv file with LibreOffice Calc I see this Text Import window. The problem is that it doesn't fit to my screen size and for that reason the bottom buttons aren't visible.

Just learned that LibreOffice has a built in accessibility check. So far it seems to work well with basic text docs and def addresses some of the more common accessibility fails. Worth using, IMO.
