[Issue 128075] New: OO does not produce a directory Tree for opening
or saving files.
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=128075
Issue ID: 128075
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: OO does not produce a directory Tree for opening or
saving files.
Product: Writer
Version: 4.1.6
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows 10
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Critical
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: save-export
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: chlarru@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
OK the forums are proving unhelpful with this issue.
OO does not save files I create. I have tested this several times by creating a
practice file, then trying to save. The result is the same when I use the
file/save file/save as or if I use the icons.1) no directory tree appears so I
cannot chose the directory in which to save and 2) even though I "save" the
file, when I try to close OO I get a message saying that the file has not been
saved.
The same situation exists when I want to open an existing file. No directory
tree so I cannot navigate to where my files are kept.
Here is what I have done, based on suggestions in the forums: install a java
runtime environment. In my case Oracle JRE 8.something, changed the default
directory using tool/options/something. Various other things that were
suggested in the forums.
I presume, but have not tested, this with other components of OO, but since
they all feed off of the same tools/options setting I have no reason to believe
they are misbehaving the same way.
As I see it, the key is that OO offers no way to navigate via a directory tree.
Since every other piece of software I use work as they should, I lay this issue
at your feet. If this problem cannot be solved, I will have no choice but to
uninstall OO and find a different open source or freeware solution.
Thanks much for taking a look at this.
Chuck

You are partially correct as in that the OpenOffice dialog box does default to
the directory defined by your statement above. However that dialog does provide
a way to navigate to other directories by using the Icons it provides. Use the
icon outlined in a in the attached screenshot to navigate up one level from
current.
Therefore this issue remains unconfirmed as I cannot confirm it with either the
OpenOffice dialog box or the standard windows Save As dialog.
Chuck Larrieu please provide the screenshot requested by Damjan previously.

I can confirm it for using OpenOffice save/open dialogs.
They shows the content of the directory defined at "Tools - Options -
OpenOffice - General - My Documents" but no directory tree.
To get a directory structure, change the setting to (Windows) System dialogs:
Open "Tools - Options - General" and uncheck "Use OpenOffice Dialogs" for
Open/Save.
