RE: [libreoffice-users] Which components do you use most?

HI Anne,

Yes a very interesting question:-

Me:-
        Writer and Calc extensively all the time even on my Samsung tablet (running under Ubuntu 
but that's another story)              33% each
        Draw I use at least once a day. (I like it  --- it is a very good easy to use application)  
                                            22%
        Impress I use often. (I find it better than MS PowerPoint.  Impress has less bugs and is 
easier to use.)                                11%
        Base I use rarely.                                                                          
                                    1% 

 I have this idea that when (if) I retire I will dedicate much of my time to helping make base a 
useable application but at the moment it just does not fulfil any requirements but that does not 
mean that I think it should be suspended because I do think that it has the prospect of being 
something excellent but needs much more development and that takes time and developers.

I find that LO does not handle Visio files very well either yet.

This makes Access and Visio the only two MSO applications I still use. (Oh! And outlook which the 
company I work for insists on everyone using).

       an interesting survey -
           as for me:

Writer  - prefer this to any other text program; use to write, ...
Calc - don't use since still do manually  ;-) Impress - use to use for presentations, then would 
convert to video; now skip that 1st step Base - don't use since still do manually - (well, 
old-fashioned with good, artistic hand-writing) Draw - have not gotten the hang of drawing with 
these machines; they just don't look as appealing as done by hand  ;-)

I'm curious to find out what components of LO are used most by the people on this list. I think it 
helps to know different folks' area of experience.
It might also help us in learning new ways to integrate the different components. For myself, my 
approximate usage is:

Writer     (85% of my use of LO)
Calc        (10%)
Impress  (3%, Maybe four to five presentations a year)
Base       (once a year to print out labels for my Christmas cards)
Draw      (What's that?)
