Libreoffice: Save As ... keeps the .odt-extension

Hi,
Has anybody noticed the same behaviour? Whenever saving a document in another format (tested with PDF and DOC), the file is saved as filename.odt.pdf.
If I'm not the only one, this is a bug and I will report it to FS...

Considering this is posted here rather than in the [testing] sub-forum I'll assume you're talking about version 3.x rather than version 4.x of libreoffice. In that version if I select .doc it saves as a .doc no problem.
If this is meant for libreoffice 4.x (in [testing]) then you posted in the wrong place.

    Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's"  after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

    DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
    If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

  • How to keep the save-button active all the time?

    Hi!
    I'm using mobile sales 4.0.
    On a tile i've only fixed questions and combo boxes with yes and no ...
    When i write manually a "yes" in the combo box field the save button is active - When i use the combo box with a mouse click the save-button isn't active.
    What are the settings i've to do to keep the save-button active all the time?
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Best regards,
    Ingo

    Hi Ingo,
    If your combobox is a bound control, then when you change a value in it, the save button should be enabled. Strange. But anyway, you can do this.
    In the <b>combobox_OnValueChanged2</b> event, make a call to makeDirty method in the tile:
    If boundAttributeChanged Then
         <b>anchorthatyourcombotiedto</b>.bo.MakeDirty True
    End If
    This will make the Save button enabled.
    Regards, Vadim.

    I keep getting a warning stating that the document could not be auto saved in pages. The file has been changed by another application. Then it says click save any way to keep your changes and save the changes made by the other application as a version, or click revert to keep the changes from the other application and save your changes to a version.
    What in the heck does all that mean, and why are they trying to behave like a Windows product or a Microsoft office product. I just don't get it.
    Why is another application changing my documents? It's like they've created a virus within their own programs. It's a pain in the neck and makes no sense.

    I am also having the issue of a warning saying "could not be auto-saved in Pages. The file has been changed in another application. I then hit "save anyway", the warning will go away for a time, sometimes minutes, sometimes hourr, but then the warming reapprears saying the same thing. This is not the case with all Pages documents but it is the case with many.

    In Illustrator, I have a saved artwork, then I'm saving a copy as PDF, as usual.
    After I keep the AI file open, making some modifications which I don't want to save, so I close the file and click "Don't Save".
    Even though I clicked that, the file's modification time is changing.
    (The modifications I made are not there, so it's not really saving but why the date is changing then?)
    Please find the cause of it! Thank you!

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

  • Batch Rename with additional "."s, drops the file extension. Request for "Keep File Extension" option...

    I NEVER name files with extra "." s in the name. I realize that all OS's (even Windows) will recognize it, but I haven't gotten out the old mindset of 8.3 filenaming... Although I do use longer names. So... I was surprised to see that when I was renaming files as per a clients naming preference to add a period within the name, the file extension is removed.
    For example: 
    original file -  2014_10_31_1643.CR2   when batch renaming to "2014.31" + sequence, drops the "CR2" extension.
    but.... if I change it to "2014_31" + sequence, the ".CR2" remains
    Since adding multiple "." is a legitimate naming convention, shouldn't the file extension remain?  Or, possibly this could be made more flexible by adding a check box "Keep file extension"
    just a thought.

  • Why does new version of Adobe reader for Windows 8 not give signed and saved document the "signed" extension when you save the file after placing a signature...  this worked on an earler version.

    I have upgraded my PC to new Windows 8 machine ..  Now when I place a signature on document and save it does not automatically place a "signed" extension on the filename.  Previous version on my machine always did this.
    Why is this ,  can I set up my new version to do same...

    When you "save as" as opposed to simply "save", there is sometimes a different location for the file to be saved. When you "save as" to the same location as an original, you will bewarned that a file already exists with that name and be asked if you're sure you want ot overwrite the original file. If you didn't see that when "saving as", you probably saved the signed file to a different location.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 is failing to add the jpg extension to file names when I "save as" even though the jpg format is selected in the drop-down list

    I've just been following my normal workflow and all of a sudden my saved files don't have the jpg extension. I'm not having this problem in other photo editing software I use. I haven't changed any settings. Anybody else have this problem?

    The Local Settings folder is a hidden folder.
    (1) If the file appears in the Downloads manager (Tools menu or Ctrl+j), you can right-click it and use Open Containing Folder to get directly to it.
    (2) To be able to see hidden folders on Windows XP in general, try this:
    Open My Computer or Windows Explorer
    Tools > Folder Options > View tab
    Scroll down and look for the checkbox regarding hidden files and folders and unhide them.
    Hopefully this will resolve the issue. Any luck?
    (3) By the way, you may be able to save the images from the email message to a more convenient location by right-clicking the links and using Save Link As. (Before you open them for editing.)

  • How do I automate removing the eps extension from illustrator CC eps files. Not hide but batch remove on save?

    I notice that even when the .eps extension is removed on save or save as it still is put there. I need to upload about 600 of these to a server but without the extension. Is there a way to do it without opening up information in mac os and manually removing it?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    On Mac I use a tool: A Better Finder Rename for Mac | MacUpdate to batch edit file names. Well worth the small price tag.

  • Is there a way in Captivate to set the reporting for a quiz so it saves/keeps the highest score

    Is there a way in Captivate to set the reporting for a quiz so it saves/keeps the highest score despite how many attempts a user takes?

    There is currently no built-in functionality to do this in Captivate. 
    If you are using an LMS, this sort of thing is normally handled there.   For example in Moodle there is an option to use the highest score out of all attempts on a course.

  • When I try to save, I keep getting the message "The document could not be saved. You don't have permission" - even though I am the Administrator and the Get Info displays "Administrator and (me)".

    When I try to save, I keep getting the message "The document could not be saved. You don't have permission" - even though I am the Administrator and the Get Info displays "Administrator" and my_name(me)". Also, when I do a disk permission repair, it always repairs the same applications and files. Last night, I did a disk permission repair twice and both times it took a long time and did the exact same repair both times.

    Disk Utility won't repair your home folder.  Sounds like your home folder permissions are messed up tho.  Try repairing them this way by using Lion Recovery.
    1. Restart Lion, and before you hear the chime, hold down the Command and R keys.
    2. You’ll be at the Repair Utilities screen. Click the Utilities item in the Menu Bar, then click Terminal.
    3. In the Terminal window, type resetpassword and hit Return.
    4. The password reset utility window launches, but you’re not going to reset the password. Instead, click on icon for your Mac’s hard drive at the top. From the dropdown below it, select the user account where you’re having issues.
    5. At the bottom of the window, you’ll see an area labeled Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the Reset button there.
    The reset process takes just a couple of minutes. When it’s done, exit the programs you’ve opened and restart your Mac.
    Good luck

  • Batch rename won't keep the extension on some files only

    I have all my shrunk (resized to smaller for web) files in a sub folder. I got the idea here somewhere to rename such files by adding " _sm " this way being able to distinguish from the two when doing a search. In batch renaming something strange happened:some files did not keep their extension. How could this be and why? There was also no undo (Why?) so i decided to rename them once again this time replacing the "_sm" with ".jpg" in order to fool Bridge and place the files back to their original names and extensions.
    Anyhow is there a reason why it would not keep the extension on some files while keep it on others? Since it's doing this in batch, therefore processing many files at once there's gotta be a reason why it would not treat all files as equals and I'm thinking that perhaps it has something to do with how I name my files.
    Thank you

    If you select the opion to preserve the previous file name when batch renaming in Bridge then it's easy to revert… The old name will be stored in the files meta data…
    If you have renamed the files again then I think this will have been overwritten… I think the property is name string and NOT array of name strings…
