It looks like certain msoffice files are also affected: xlsx, pptx and docx (In reply to Martin Krajnak from comment #0) > Created attachment 1248387 [details] > test file > > Description of problem: > In previous versions there were options allowing libreoffice documents to > rotate document, print document and switch to present mode.

I guess from 'previous versions' you meant versions when we used to convert an office document to PDF first and then show it. From 3.20 onwards, we migrated to using LO's shipped gtk widget, LOKDocView, that renders the document for us using LibreOffice installed on your system. This solves couple of problems like incorrect rendering of spreadsheets etc. when converted to PDF. As far as i can see from commit history, we never supported these mentioned options right from the point we migrated to LOKDocView (cf. e78b6a5c) as the widget was incapable of them. Hence this is a bug against the LibreOffice widget rather than against gnome-documents. I would split this into two enhancement requests against LOKDocView widget - 1) Support for print option in the widget 2) Support for rotation Can you please file them as separate bugs, preferably on https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/ ? If you can't for some reason, let me know and I will do it. Downgraded 'severity'. The benefits of using LOKDocView far outweigh the loss of these options. With exception of printing, the others aren't that commonly used. As Pranav mentioned in comment 2, we need to file these as RFEs against LOKDocView. I have filed the bug upstream - https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106167 For rotation, I am not sure if it would/should be allowed etc. since its an editing area inherrently (which is disabled on the widget level) not any image that you can rotate etc. For me print option is enough. I reported other options because of consistency as other documents have these functions. Thank you for reporting to document foundation. In version 3.24.2 of Fedora 26, clicking on LibreOffice docs, does not visualize them, as does with pdfs. It's possible to open them using the menu button on rigth side. This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '25'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
