Libre office 3.5 version or previous version does not have Tools>Marco>Record Marco option. it has run macro but not record macro. I opened a Microsoft office data set which had micros.

Shortcut for changing language?
Can't get record macro order
LO 3.4-no macro also this way!
Freak "Repeat" menu

EDIT 2012-10-22

You can enable Record Macro as follows:

3.5.x

Menu Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General

:ballot_box_with_check: Enable experimental (unstable) features.

3.6.x (see comments)

Menu Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General

:ballot_box_with_check: Enable macro recording (limited)

EDIT 2012-11-29

4.0.x (LibO-Dev 4.0.0.0.alpha1)

Menu Tools → Options → LibreOffice → Advanced

Optional (unstable) options

:ballot_box_with_check: Enable macro recording

(see also → Release Notes 4.0)

How merge cell content in Libre Calc?

Writer, record macro is missing
How can one search & replace direct formatting with styles?

thanks that made it available. – could not find this in documentation

Yes, that’s pretty hidden: (1) Getting Started with LibreOffice · Chapter 2 · Setting Up LibreOffice, p. 6 → http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/documentation/#gs – – (2) fdo#38509 · Meaningless text and missing Help for Options Dialog checkbox “Experimental (unstable) features”

#5

Note that at least from v. 3.6.2 (what I’m looking at now), this dialog includes an “Enable macro recording (limited)” check box. That makes it a little clearer … but still not easy to find in the first place!

A fix for fdo#38509 has been applied in fdo#54699.

Thx manj_k :slight_smile:

#8

Thnks, Its working for me

#9

thx, it´s nice to know that u can cut off unstable features in case that they are not working with that checkbox

#10

For LibreOffice 3.6 → Macro recording can be activated with a separate option: Tools → Options → General → Enable macro recording. This allows using that (limited) functionality without turning on the experimental features. · fdo#41865
