No Macros in LibreOffice

[jreme100]

Hi,

Thanks for a great product.

I'm struggling with the libreoffice plugins.

Installed Parlatype from Github source. Install went fine. Works great. Installed parlatype-libreoffice-extension from source. Install also went fine.

In libreoffice, I have the three menu buttons (open parlatype, link media, and insert timestamp). I do not have the Parlatype folder under Libreoffice Macros. I found I can get them if I install the parlatype helpers item from various repositories, but then doing so screws up the link with the source-installed Parlatype (after doing this the link to file / insert timestamp buttons no longer work).

Can you advise me what I'm likely doing wrong? Thx again for this great product.

If installed in "bundled" mode, macros should be found here (screenshot of LibreOffice in English):

If installed as otx, the should be under "My Macros".

It might be necessary to restart LibreOffice once.

The old "parlatype helpers" won't work, you should use Parlatype and its LibreOffice Extension of the same version.

So you still don't have those macros? How did you install the extension exactly? Which version of LibreOffice do you have?

Hey Gabor, thanks to this I was also able to map the macro :)

One thing that I noticed is that in the Customize / Keyboard screen, the Parlatype macros don't show up even if you search for them by exact name except when the macro group is specifically selected. Maybe it's a LO protection/name scoping? For instance searching for "

"All commands" category

"Parlatype" category

As a user I was expecting (maybe wrongly) that searching for "parlatype" would make them appear. If that's impossible through LO, I think that a simple mention of their location in the documentation should be enough for most people. Thanks again for a great tool!

Here's some info on my end: Installed via Arch Package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/parlatype-libreoffice-extension/ Versions: 2.1.1 LO Version: 7.0.3.1
