Hi everyone, does anyone know how I can make openoffice use the trinity open/save dialog boxes ? It used to work on my debian lenny kde 3.5.10 system with the openoffice.org-kde package installed but I don't know how to get it back with trinity on debian squeeze. Thanks, regards, Denis

I don't recall exactly what's involved as we've automated our Trinity installations but I think you want the kgtk-qt3-trinity package - John

thanks for your answer John. That package is installed but I still have the default openoffice open/save dialog boxes instead of the Trinity ones. I checked the openoffice tools menu options but found none that seems relevant. Denis

<snip> If you look under Settings / Appearance & Themes / GTK Styles and Fonts, there is a setting for use my KDE style in GTK applications. I thought that had more to do with Window appearance and decorations than dialogs but it might be worth enabling. Just a thought - John

You can't right now as there is no openoffice.org-trinity package available. The problem is that OpenOffice is incredibly difficult to patch; the openoffice.org-kde3 version that I create for Ubuntu routinely takes 1 to 1.5 weeks to get working each release. Tim
