Description spc_000 2020-09-16 12:30:04 UTC
Description:
I need to open a lot of txt files which are tables seperated by "\t" or ",". But when I open these files with LibreOffice, they are opened with Writer but Calc. It is rather unconvinient. So I hope to have the method to choose which module I want to use for opening files with different types. Maybe it is better to have diffent "open with"s in the menu, then users can choose the right one(Writer/Calc/...) easily. Thanks for attention. 

Actual Results:
null

Expected Results:
open the txt files with calc directly


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
settings for the modules to open files with different types
For example: I can set Calc to open txt file. Then when I open a txt file with Libre, it will use Calc to open it.
Or when I open files, I can choose "open with Writer", "open with Calc", etc.

The problem has been solved. I just found scalc.exe in the installation folder. Then I could open the txt files with scalc.exe by the right-click menu.
