Sorry for disturbing you with ideas how to improve AOO.

You can go back to inactivity mode now...

The flat XML file form of ODF is something discussed in this bug report:
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126270

This is possibly relevant too:

Thank you for the pointers!

Yes, LO has these Filters integrated. And I think we should do that, too.

BTW: On Windows I could open the attached file without a problem (I have
the filters installed).

OK, that only works with my 4.2.0 Test build.

https://github.com/apache/openoffice/commit/d3069caad29ae0df2efcdd74497d40d1ed39231c

This (and maybe some other commits) does not seem to be backported to
the release branch.

 Hi All,

 What do you think about these filters:

 https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=44216

 Would it be possible to add Flat ODF to AOO?

 While I can import and use them in my Windows build the import crashes
 on every GNOME based Linux I tried.

 But it works e.g. in Xubuntu. So there is another Linux bug to be fixed...

Matthias

Nope, works also on 4.1.14.

I just seem to have a problem with the .fodt file type not associated
with AOO.

And the attached file is Flat ODT, but with an .odt extension.

I played with saving a Writer document in the fodt format because I thought
a flat xml file would be useful for the documentation effort. Git isn't
much use with the odt format. I opened a chapter of the Calc User Guide
(0302CG33-EnterEditFormatData.odt) that has 24 pages, 29 figures, many
small tables,  a few inserted comments and several tracked changes. I
successfully saved it as an fodt and I could reopen it. I have not
proofread the fodt but there are no obvious formatting problems. However,
if I make even a tiny edit, adding one letter, and save the file,
OpenOffice hangs when I try to reopen the file.. I eventually get the
Windows message "OpenOffice 4.1.14 is not responding". I also tried the
document in the bugzilla issue and I successfully made a small edit to that.
I would be willing to run tests to discover what document features cause
problems if that is likely to lead to fixing the problem. I have a Linux
Mint system in addition to a WIndows 10 system.

Francis
