hi, i am struggling to get macros to work in Calc. “tools/macros/record macros” is grayed out and can not be clicked, how do i enable this button or function. libreoffice 4.1.5.3
Hi
On Linux or Windows you have now to enable Tools Options LibreOffice Advanced Enable macro recording
Mac equivalent: LibreOffice Preferences
Regards
thank you, i tried that, but my tools drop down does not have “options” is there another way i can get to that dialog?
I updated my answer for Mac Users…
thank you, i found it
i do not have “advanced” under LibreOffice so I can’t reach enable macro recording
LibreOffice 3.5.7.2
please advise
As I recall it had to be in Tools Options LibreOffice General.
Unless you do not have the choice of version, I advise you to upgrade to a newer version because the latter provide security fixes in addition to bug fixes and new features.
Regards
This is what worked for me (solution copied from another thread on this board):
LibreOffice → Preferences → LibreOffice → Advanced → Option: [x] Enable macro recording (may be limited)
