Problem description: a macro recorded and then assigned to a Menu item, does not work after a program update. This is the second occurrence in the past three month updates. Steps to reproduce: N/A 1. .... 2. .... 3. .... Current behavior: Expected behavior: Platform (if different from the browser): Ubuntu 12.04 Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1
Does not work is no useful description. Macro does not exist? Keyboard shortcut broken? Seems to work, but result is not as expected? Or what else? Not a valid bug report! @reporter: Thank you for your report – unfortunately important information is missing. May be hints on <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport> will help you to find out what information will be useful to reproduce your problem? If you believe that that is really sophisticated please as for Help on a user mailing list Please: - Write a meaningful Summary describing exactly what the problem is - If that can help to explain the bug, please attach a sample document (not only screenshot) or refer to an existing sample document in an other Bug with a link; to attach a file to this bug report, just click on "Add an attachment" right on this page. - Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show - Contribute a document related step by step instruction containing every key press and every mouse click how to reproduce your problem (similar to example in Bug 43431) – if possible contribute an instruction how to create a sample document from the scratch - add information -- what EXACTLY is unexpected -- and WHY do you believe it's unexpected (cite Help or Documentation!) -- concerning your PC -- concerning your OS (Language) -- concerning the LibO version from what you updated -- All related details how you updated –- Libo settings that might be related to your problems -- everything else crossing your mind after you read linked texts

I will try to be more precise. I recorded a simple macro to paste a block of data simply as number. Then I associate this macro to a new menu item. All was working for a couple of months. After a program update, after clicking on the menu item, I received an error of macro not found (or something like that). The macro disappeared from the macro list. I repeated the procedure creating a new macro. Same as above: after some time, I found that the macro disappeared again. Unfortunately I have not recorded the error message. Next time I will do if the issue comes again. I am not sure that the issue is caused by program updates or something else. (sorry for my English, I am italian).
Unfortunately still all relevant information is missing, so I close this bug for now as DUP of "Bug 52022 - CONFIGURATION: 'My Macros' lost after update from 3.5.5.3". I will soon do further tests there, because currently information there also is rather poor. @vimot2: There is no need to cite all comment. Please use Bugzilla frontend (not mail client) for your comments and only if necessary and only parts of former comments. I only have experience with WIN but I believe on Linux it will be very similar. I use the default "Folder" "My Macros" in the User Profile <https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#User_profile_location> under .... \LibreOffice\3\user\basic\Standard\ in a file called "MyMacros.xba" (or similar). With a text editor you can see the source code. Now the question is whether the .xba disappeared or has been destroyed or whether your profile folder changed or whatever? You can get assistance on <http://ask.libreoffice.org/questions/> or on the public users mailing list <users@libreoffice.org>, a mailing list from <http://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/#lists> or <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Local_Mailing_Lists> Please feel free to reopen this Bug if discussion with others leaded to an assessment that we have a LibO bug and a clear and comprehensible description of the problem due to <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport>. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 52022 ***
