Generating Address Labels not possible on OS X

#1

Hello,

generating address labels on OS X seems not to be not possible.

In a first step I generated an address source out of a Calc-Document, using LibreOffice's „Address Source“ Assistent.
At this step the Base-Document „Adressen.odb“ is created and stored in the Directory „~/Documents“.
This step seems to be OK.

When I now select File->New->Address Labels (in geman Etiketten)
I am able to select the Database the table and the colums. I can put them into the template. I can setup the hole Options.
But when I select „new Document“ to finish the Dialog a wheel is spinning for ever and the LibreOffice Process is „not responding“ from the OS level perspective.
I am only able to Kill it.

I am Using LibreOffice 4.2.0.4 with german language on a OSX 10.9.2 box.

Is there a possible work around?

Hi Burghard,

I am Using LibreOffice 4.2.0.4 with german language on a OSX 10.9.2 box.

I would try either downgrading to 4.1.x or upgrading to a more recent
version of 4.2.x.

The latest "FRESH" version of LO is 4.2.3
The latest version of LO 4.1.x is 4.1.6

The 4.2.0.x series had quite a lot of particularly annoying bugs on OSX,
although I am unsure whether they actually got fixed.
