Re: [libreoffice-users] Automatic sizing of documents in single window

Hi :)
Please, when replying do a "Reply to all" or "Group reply" or "Reply to list".  Thanks for trying 
to work-around the 'problem' of me getting duplicates of your replies but i really don't mind 
getting duplicates.  It's easy to hit the delete key.  I think we are supposed to delete-out 
individual's addresses from the "To" and "CC" fields but sometimes that means the person that 
posted doesn't get any of the replies because they are not properly subscribed to the mailing list. 
 It's easier just to send to the list and everyone and let them quickly hit their delete key when 
they see the same message got through twice.  


The mailing lists used to have a really clever way of handling all this but various people prefer 
it this way around :(  The rest of us have just learned to live with it.  


Sorry about all that!! 



It should be possible to "Cascade" any windows that are in a group on your taskbar surely?  Don't 
you just right-click on the 'button' on the taskbar and select "Cascade"?  Win Xp and earlier going 
back to Win98 had something like that didn't they?  Vista and Win7 too?  So, is this problem only 
happening on Win8?  


Also which version of LibreOffice are you using?  If you have any trouble at all with 4.1.0 then 
just uninstall it and go back to 4.0.4.  That 3rd digit show how many "service packs" the branch 
has had so about .4 becomes very very stable and predictable.  Most people will find even 
beta-testing versions plenty stable enough but some will find odd things that don't quite work for 
them, in which case just go back to the stable branch.  

Regards from 
Tom :)
