I actually hate wondize, but have to live with it because of the limited software for decent O/S such as Linux. For this reason I do not use Office and prefer to use LibreOffice, which is great, once you get past the learning curve. One serious problem, though: windoze being the crap it is, there are certain operations that work great, especially in other applications. When opening an app, I sometimes have to update a specific file. I then create a new folder from within the "Open" dialog box, give it an appropriate name and copy the older version into the new folder. I then open the old file and immediately rename it with a new version number as will be appropriate. When trying to do this in LibreOffice, everything frezzes up and the process has to be stopped from TaskManager. Please, guys, I'm not a programmer and can't do it, otherwise I would try. Please, big please: fix this problem. I have encountered it many times before, yet I forget that LibreOffice is the only app that doesn't work like the other apps in that sense.
Hello Hein, Unfortunately without clear steps to reproduce it, we cannot track down the origin of the problem. Please provide a clearer set of step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the problem. I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once the steps are provided. Also share with us information from libreoffice HELP > ABOUT LIBREOFFICE, copy verion information and paste it here.
Also I have an idea, when LO crashes with wirking save dialog, try to setting the libreoffice to use own dialog TOOLS > OPTIONS > LibreOffice > General and check Use libreoffice dialog boxes. When the problem is not present, then problem is probably in dialog of operation system.
