I have a variety of macro files which LO has stored in ~/.config/libreoffice/user/basic/Standard
and noted in script.xlb
in that same directory. Now and then I start LO and it turns out that it has forgotten my files and only knows about Module1
, which it seems to have created itself.
The macros sources are still in that directory, and I can manually edit script.xlb
to make them visible again.
The same sort of thing happens with dialogues and dialog.xlb
, but is marginally trickier, as it knows no dialogues at all and has reduced the tag to <library:library
etc />
, requiring more of awareness of the syntax to correct.
It happened just now, after my OpenSUSE Linux 15.3 system hung and had to be brutally stopped and restarted. I was running LibreOffice 7.5.03. I was also not offered a chance to recover the files I was working on, although that normally works fine. (I have since updated to 7.5.1.2, but was running 7.5.0.3 before and after the restart.)
Is this a bug or might I have done something wrong?
