Couldn't open a presentation to editing

[victorlevasseur]

Hello,
I've installed LibreOffice on my computer (on Ubuntu 10.10).
But I've some problems with Impress :

When I want to open a file for Impress, it open it, but the Splideshow start immediately.
The problem happened on ppt / pptx / odp.
When I press Escape to exit the slideshow, I cannot edit the slideshow because it is closed too.

PS : Sorry if I've done some english mistakes, I'm french and I'm learning english in school.

That is odd. This behaviour should only appear, when you have a .pps file. How do you open the file? Do you just double click on it? Or do you go there from inside the software?

If you try to open it from the file manager, try the following:
Click on the file so that it is marked (highlighted).
Then do a right click with the mouse.

I've learned that there should be a difference between those two options just a few days before on the users list.

Please try and report back if it helped.

Thanks.

Btw, I think your English is really good!

The "bug" appear when I open directly the file and when I open the file from Impress

From the context menu try "open with LibreOffice 3.3" instead of "Open with LibreOffice Impress".

I don't have two choices in the context menu, I've only "open with  LibreOffice Impress 3.3".
(the command is libreoffice "FILENAME").

Do you have the option to choose "Open with..."? If so, select this entry and in the popup that appears, just select LibreOffice.

If you'd prefer to communicate in French, you can subscribe to the
French user list:

How I found that:
http://www.documentfoundation.org/contact/
  clicked the link in:
"This is NOT A SUPPORT ADDRESS! For support, please refer to our mailing
lists. "
and that takes you to:
http://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/#lists
  down near the bottom of the page:
"Local and Regional Mailing Lists

and that takes you to:

I reckon I'll need to subscribe to the web list to see if that can be
simplified :-(

As for your question: how have you installed LO on your system? Did you
install from the Ubuntu PPA, or did you install from the .deb file from:
http://www.libreoffice.org/download
It will make a difference as to how to try to assist. Please also
provide information regarding the version you are running. Open Lo and
click Help|About LibreOffice and copy/paste the information here. A
stable .deb version will have this:
LibreOffice 3.3.0
OOO330m19 (Build:6)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4
