[opensuse] Missing menu in libreoffice draw
I'm just trying to start using libreoffice draw. Leap 15.0 LO Version: 6.2.7.1 (yes I know it's old) The help for Arranging Objects says: "2. Choose Modify - Arrange ..." and searching the help reveals that Modify is supposedly a menu. But there is no Modify menu. Menus are: File Edit View Insert Format Page Shape Tools Window Help A quick web search hasn't shown anything helpful. Does anybody know how to fix this? TIA, Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Never mind. The help is wrong - the menu is called Shape.
TIA, Dave

Funny when you trash the traditional help files and replace it with links to an on-line wiki -- things get lost in the shuffle.... Documentation has always been an area of last thought in open-source. -- David C.

True but not relevant in this case. The help files are in /usr/share/libreoffice/help/ from package libreoffice-l10n-en-6.2.7.1-lp150.2.19.1.noarch Generally I prefer help files in a package like this! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
