Hi :)
In LibreOffice is it possible to make your own customised icon-bar be the default that appears when 
LO is installed on a networked machine?

Would that be a good route to go?

Tools - Customise - Toolbar
in most programs seems to allow you to create a customised toolbar but is there a way of easily 
rolling that out to all new installs?  
Regards from 
Tom :)

Hi,

Right, there are many ways to circumvent certain restrictions. It's not that I really need a 100% 
protection from my users. I just want to guide them in doing the "right thing". Besides, they're 
the ones that really should be concerned that their data is correctly saved where it should be. 
But you may already know how some users do crazy things and don't even remember about it.

In any case, my question is even more general: shouldn't a macro associated to an event override 
that event? Some may disagree because you may want to run both your macro AND the stuff LO usually 
runs for a given event. But in any case, it should be up to the user/admin to decide if a macro 
should "replace" whatever LO does for a given event (eg. if event is "save" or "save as" then run 
macro that says "Hello World". Admin user should be able to decide whether LO ONLY shows the 
message "Hello World" and doesn't save the doc, or LO shows the msg while it's also saving the 
doc.).

If it can't be done easily without reinventing the wheel (that is, overriding an event with a 
macro) then I'll just forget about it and hope this feature will come up some day in LO.

If so, is there a place where I can add my wish list?

Thanks,

Vieri

Hi :)  

I think it's just to block morons from doing stupid things
without really knowing what they are doing.  If someone
knows how to circumvent stuff like this then they probably
understand the differences between different formats and can
navigate folders without too much trouble.  


Now he's explained it i think it makes a lot of sense.  The
question is how to do it.

to "save as" and would only give us problems.

Surely any user who found they couldn't Save As... but
wanted to save 
the file under a different name or in a different
location could 
circumvent your intended protection by merely closing
the document, 
doing the necessary in the operating system, and then
re-opening the 
new file in LibreOffice?  If you have the authority to
forbid their 
doing that, your problem would be solved anyway.
