LibreOffice 2.3.1 Portable

Submitted by Motim on March 18, 2022 - 6:37am

Hello,
I am following each new version, and I wrote about this bug before, but it comes again.
In version 7.1.8 (which I use now) - in the upper left corner of "Calc" spreadsheet, there are two pen-icons , to direct the writing direction : right to left or left t right/
In the last version 2.3.1 again those icons are hidden at the far upper end, only if you click on the >> icon they appear.
Well, I have prepared two screenshots, but cannot see any 'link' where to attach them.
(May be after I save this post)
Answers will be appreciated.

LibreOffice Still 7.2.5.2 - ~PRESERVEDIRECTORY2

Submitted by Abraxian on February 5, 2022 - 2:08pm

I just updated my LibreOffice Portable (Still version) MultilingualStandard and at the end of the 'install' there is a directory left behind titled ~PRESERVEDIRECTORY2. The directory contents is 92.3 MB in size and it contains 1,833 files.

What is this directory?

Is it safe to delete it?

Why was it put there in the first place?

[Fixed] LibreOffice Portable 7.2.5 doesn't have all available languages in installer

Submitted by noki on January 18, 2022 - 4:42am

The list of possible installation languages in LibreOffice 7.2.5 Portable MultilingualAll is missing quite a few languages like Dutch. This removes the method of just installing the selected language plus English (using the "Remove Extra Languages" during installation)

LibreOffice Portable Writer Still doesn't pin properly.

Submitted by gaveitatry on January 6, 2022 - 8:50am

Sorry for asking annoying questions. I was told that you could pin OpenOfficePortable.exe to the taskbar to pin it, but a separate icon would appear when running it. It was suggested to me to use LibreOffice instead. I was told that LibreOffice supports taskbar pinning. I installed LibreOffice Portable (Still). From the PortableApps.com Launcher, it wouldn't let me pin LibreOffice Writer Still to the taskbar. That option is grayed out.

Place to download from

Hello,
From where can I download "LibreOffice" portable version 7.1.7 or 7.1.8 not in .msi forma. The last one I downloaded and working is "LibreOfficePortable_7.1.6_MultilingualAll.paf.exe" file.
Cannot use 7.2.2, (nor 7.2.1), it has some bug in the 'Calc' toolbar I wrote them long ago in previous versions.
Answers will be appreciated.
Thanks

LibreOffice Portable 7.2.2.2 Available for Download at LibreOffice Site but Not at PortableApps

Submitted by Abraxian on November 8, 2021 - 7:57am

I note that it is now possible to download LibreOffice Portable 7.2.2.2 from LibreOffice's own site here: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/portable-versions/

However, it is not downloadable from PortableApps here: https://portableapps.com/apps/office/libreoffice_portable The version on offer there is still at 7.2.1.

Seems like someone not clicking a button somewhere.

LibreOffice Portable Still Version 7.1.6 Won't Launch

Submitted by Abraxian on October 7, 2021 - 11:03am

OS = Windows 7 Pro. SP1 x64

I just downloaded and installed LibreOffice Still using this paf file: LibreOfficePortablePrevious_7.1.6_MultilingualStandard.paf.exe

I just launched the paf file and did the install manually as I don't use PortableApp Platform.

The install was to update my earlier version of LibreOffice Still.

Writer Separator field not displayed 7.2.1 (chapter numbering)

Submitted by Hagar Delest on September 27, 2021 - 1:13pm

Hi,

If you add strings to the Before/After fields for Separator in the Chapter Numbering options, they do not appear unless there is a numbering.

Per the help, if numbering is set to None, "Only the character or symbol defined in the Separator fields appears at the beginning of the numbered list".

Thus, even with no numbering, the strings in the Before/After fields shall be displayed.

Works fine with the 7.2.1 version installed on Xubuntu (21.04). Was working fine with portable 7.0.5.

plugin/extensions in Libreoffice portable

Submitted by Totoche on September 20, 2021 - 10:18pm

Hello,

I can't find the information to know in which directory we have to put the plugins for libreoffice?

I saw that the dictionaries are in D:\PortAPPs_com_Platform\PortableApps\LibreOfficePortable\App\libreoffice\share\extensions\dict-*
so I tried to put the *.oxt in D:\PortAPPs_com_Platform\PortableApps\LibreOfficePortable\App\libreoffice\share\extensions
But it doesn't work

Thank you for helping me...
