Is there a LibreOffice OFFLINE help package? The current online help is nowhere near as complete or useful (and per the web-site, there are many help topics not yet converted to wiki). Moreover, if you need help and you don't have a connection at the moment, your pretty much hosed.
There is offline help offered for download at libreoffice.org, but rather than hacking that into my system, I am trying to find a opensuse package. I currently have the following installed:
As I understand the situation, no, there is no offline help package. There is help available online but its quality is patchy. The developers and documentation writers are in the middle of a plan to make maintenance easier and appear to have decided that users are not useful during that process but are in fact an inconvenience to be ignored. They are part way through converting the offline help to online help in a wiki. They say the wiki will be easier to edit than the existing offline help. Afterwards, they then intend to develop a process to convert the wiki contents back to offline help. But the plans are not firm and there is no timescale. See https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Wikihelp There have been various threads about the subject both here and on the libreoffice list, so plenty to read if you want more information. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
