Listmates, I have installed openoffice-core on my x86 box and I am trying to understand what user interface it is using and how to change it if I can. I suspect the very block like interface and large menu and menubar fonts are the result of the GTK interface oo on arch uses by default. (I could have this backwards). The default UI looks really awkward to me. It brings back bad memories of the days when the UI was limited to what you see on xpdf. The wiki(http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Openoffice) suggests an environment variable setting of OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=kde soffice, but warns that "KDE look will be removed in Openoffice3". What's the status of that? When will the QT interface go away? What is the best way to get a better looking interface on KDE3. I have tried using 'OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=kde soffice', but so far I get an error when attempting this over XDMCP. Is there something that will work in this situation as well? Thanks for any help or suggestions you can give. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
