LibreOffice Portable

[Fixed] Locale settings are not saved

Submitted by Wamiduku on February 28, 2011 - 12:13pm

The Locale setting in Tools->Options->Language Settings->Languages is not
saved when the locale is different from the user interface language. Every time LibreOffice is started, the selected locale setting is reset
back to the same language as the setting for "User interface".

E.g. if I set the user interface language to "English (USA)" and the locale to
"Swedish (Sweden)", the locale will be set to "English (USA)" the next time I
start LibreOffice.

Is 3.3.1 coming?

Submitted by saronno on February 24, 2011 - 1:26pm

While 3.3.0 portable was released together with the standard libreoffice.org version and also "officially" mentioned in the libreoffice.org site as a result of collaboration between the Document Foundation and PortableApps.com,
things seem to be different with 3.3.1.

I found no mention at all (anywhere) about the same collaboration about the new release; moreover, any Google search for the word "portableapps" in the LibreOffice.org site leads to zero results.

Problem with installation

Submitted by rali on February 22, 2011 - 11:15am

Hi

I tried to install LibreOffice Portable after I have downloaded it to C. I tried to install it on my USB but strange I had more than 1.5 GB free on C and during the install I get the error that I`m running ot of space on C. So I had to stop the installation. After I have done that I now have only 500 MB free on C even when I have deleted the LibreOffice Portable.exe file?

Can somebody help me to free C because I think that LibreOffice Portable has created some files somewhere on it but I dont know where or how to find them?

Thanks in advance

reveal codes ?

Submitted by smallhagrid on February 19, 2011 - 3:46pm

I have read in several places that LO has implemented a reveal codes feature, similarly to 'WordPerfect' - but also that nobody can seem to find it.

Can anyone here definitely verify the presence or absence of this well-loved feature ?
(I suspect that it is the one feature which may garner more new users in a single lump than any other one...)

Thank you !

Spaces in launch path

Submitted by Grano on February 15, 2011 - 12:34pm

I used to launch OpenOffice Portable from my Win XP desktop. This does now work with LibreOffice Portable any more: an error message complaining on spaces in launch path is displayed (C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\...)

Does anybody happen to know what might be the reason of such a change in behaviour? Is it a PortableApps or a LibreOffice issue?

LibreOffice Portable Edition Will Not Install

Submitted by hwfa on February 11, 2011 - 9:56am

Win XP Pro SP3

I downloaded LibreOffice Portable v 3.3 and tried to install it on my USB drive along with several other Portable Apps. I got "Please close all instances of Libre OpenOffice PE and then click OK. The portable app can not be updated while it is running". But it is *not* running. It isn't even installed; this is the first time I've downloaded it.

Help.

Please.
