Sunbird: Hour height

Submitted by shimanotaka on April 23, 2008 - 6:22am

Hi,

I just updated from Sunbird 0.2 to 0.8, and suddenly the hour periods are much taller than before. Now only 9 hours fits on the screen, where my entire day fit before. I don't want to have to do a lot of scrolling, but would prefer to have my entire day/week on screen at once. Is there any possibility to decrease the hour height in the day/week view?

AbiWord: Fonts location

Submitted by buddly99 on April 19, 2008 - 1:04pm

Somehow the portable version should look for the fonts on the flash drive or the host computer. It now looks at the host computer for the windows font file, if I have used fonts that are not on the host then I have a problem with display of the fonts.

And yes I know the fix is to use the default fonts on standard windows install.

Sunbird 0.8 with Provider 0.4 works, syncing with Google Calendar

Submitted by pwright2 on April 17, 2008 - 9:02am

I was never able to get Sb 0.7 to sync but 0.8 works fine. Just give it the iCal address for the Google calendar.

I don't have any luck getting Lightning 0.8 to sync, though. It doesn't even offer me a place to point it to Google. Maybe I've missed something?

AbiWord: open doc from command line

Submitted by bosully on April 13, 2008 - 7:35pm

E.G., AbiwordPortable.exe to-do.txt

using Vista SP1 with OneCare antivirus
AbiwordPortable.exe v2.4.6 on an old CD still opens and loads to-do.txt
AbiwordPortable.exe v2.6.2 will open without loading to-do.txt
Abiword.exe v2.6.2 also will open without loading to-do.txt

What did I overlook? (I tried DOS, batch, autohotkey.)

AbiWord: Why does only installing English install multilingual AWT?

Submitted by sylikc on April 7, 2008 - 8:09pm

Hi, I was wondering why the AbiWordPortable release 2.6.2 for an English only install has template files (AWT) that are in other languages?

I'm not a very big AbiWord user so I don't know if it's safe to remove those or should they be included, but there's a bunch of template files in

Sumatra PDF: Text Selecting?

Submitted by heartbt on April 7, 2008 - 5:55pm

Long time reader, first time post. With that in mind, I'm not sure if this is a support question, bug (tho I'm pretty sure it's not) or a feature request. Either way I think it should go here.

I cannot select text from a PDF for a cut or copy and paste operation. This occurs in PDF's that I have made, and others from web. If this is normal, then this is a feature request. If this is not, then what is going on here? This would be a tremendous feature, for at least me.

Thanks to all the forum for helpful, informative, and sometimes entertaining reading.
