Hi :)

There seems to be a question about it interfering with accessibility which 
sounds pretty serious but i don't know where would be the best place to report 
it.  It's nothing to do with LibreOffice of course but it must be very 
frustrating trying to get anyone appropriate to listen.
Regards from
Tom :)

The only 4 people in the world that like Compiz are the people who wrote
Compiz.  It serves absolutely NO useful purpose, yet continually trashes
both systems and screens.

In OpenSuSE 11.4, just try changing your mouse pointer size.  Same thing
in last 2 Ubuntu.  There are THOUSANDS of other bugs and system problems
caused by that completely worthless puddle of bits.  It is horribly
designed and written by people that don't have the slightest bit of
programming skill.

It is turned on by default in both the latest releases of Ubuntu and
OpenSuSE.  It is a bug ridden piece of doo-doo which hoses all mouse
pointer changes making most new distros unusable by AARP members and
people with poor vision.  It will randomly and without reason popup a 4
desktop control window which "end users" know nothing about.  If you are
impatient while a computer is booting and move your mouse while compiz
is loading IT WILL CHANGE YOUR SCREEN SIZE.

There are only 4 people in the world who like that hunk of doo doo.


Which four people are you referring to?

I thought it's just for fancy desktops like spinning cubes with movies

on all sides and wobbly windows and stuff like that.


Yes, that and some hundreds of other things, most of them useless, but
some of them are really making life a little bit easier. Just
inactivate the useless stuff and activate the useful ones.

Compiz is a crime against humanity.  There are exactly 4 people in the
known universe who like that pathetic excuse for a system crasher.


Are those the same four people as those mentioned above?

Are you aware that, at least
in Win. that you can move between documents using Alt+tab? I find 

that

much
faster than trying to use a mouse. If you have a bunch of tasks 

running


it's


not so handy, but normally you are only switching between a few 

windows

and
it is very quick.


Are you aware that if you press Ctrl+Tab you can do the same between
documents (or tabs) within the same program? :)


That works also, but ALT+Tab for me, is an easier finger movement and 

Win

treats each document in LO or OO as a separate window so if I have to
bounce
between two LO windows either one accomplishes the task.


As I said, that is Windows, but what about both Linux or Mac?  The idea 

of

tabbed documents IN LibreOffice would be a cross-platform idea and not
depend on knowing a shortcut for a particular platform.





Oops, I accidently sent this before I was finished… I hate my keyboard…

Okay, I'll take it from the beginning:

I accidently said earlier that you switch between open applications in
GNU/Linux (at least with Gnome as the desktop environment; I don't
know about KDE, LXDE and the others) with Ctrl+⇥. I don't really know
why I wrote that, because it's plain wrong. Of course I meant Alt+⇥,
nothing else (yes, ”⇥” is the Tab key), so it's just like in Windows,
except that you have more than one desktop (user settable between 1
and 1024 with Compiz if I recall correctly, and most of the well known
GNU/Linux-distributions comes with Compiz pre-installed).

It would be nice to have this tabbed option like in Firefox.  It would 

be

easier to use than having multiple LO tasks in the task bar [bottom, 

side,

or top of the screen] when you already have 4 or 5 other packages open 

at

the same time.  The idea is a good one to look into.  Other non-office
packages are either doing it by default, or by extension.  LO user 

might

benefit from such an idea, since they may already using the idea in 

those

other packages.  I sure use tabs in my Firefox and Thunderbird use.  

It

would help me when I use LibreOffice, sometimes.
