The Document Foundation has released version 26.2 of the LibreOffice suite. Installers are available for various distributions of Linux, Windows, and macOS. In version 26.2, the project has removed the label «Community» (LibreOffice Community) and returned to simply being called LibreOffice. <\/p>\n
Previously, the label «Community» was added to emphasize that the build was supported by enthusiasts and not aimed at enterprise use. A few years ago, the name LibreOffice Community was introduced to clearly differentiate it from the LibreOffice Enterprise products, which receive commercial support from partner companies, long-term updates (LTS), and additional features like SLAs (Service Level Agreements). Ultimately, it was decided to remove the «Community» label as its presence during downloads confused users \u2014 some believed it was solely a non-commercial version when, in fact, it was freely available to everyone, including corporate users. <\/p>\n
The most notable changes: <\/p>\n
\n
Support for importing and exporting documents in Markdown format has been added, as well as for pasting Markdown-formatted text via the clipboard. When importing Markdown documents, ODT\/DOCX templates can be used to customize the appearance.\n
Improvements have been made to the performance and responsiveness of the interface when opening, editing, and saving large files. The export of files in EPUB format has been significantly accelerated. The rendering of forms and SVG images with template filling has been sped up.\n
Compatibility with documents created in proprietary office suites has been improved. Support for open standards has also been enhanced.\n
In Linux, color selection dialogs provided by GTK and Qt libraries are used by default instead of a LibreOffice-specific dialog. This behavior can be changed through the settings in «Tools ▸ Options ▸ LibreOffice ▸ General».\n
Vertical tabs with icons have been implemented in all dialog windows.
<\/center>\n
An option has been added to use horizontal tabs instead of vertical ones in dialogs.
<\/center>\n
The ability to insert hyperlinks via the context menu displayed for selected text has been added.
<\/center>\n
In the screenshot creation dialog, the ability to copy the image to the clipboard has been added, rather than just saving it to a file.
<\/center>\n
A new set of symbols has been proposed for marking items in unordered lists. The image library for unordered lists has been updated.
<\/center>\n
The IconView widget has replaced ValueSet in the theme selection dialog, the Layouts sidebar in Impress, and also in presets and shadow styles when customizing page border formatting.\n
The dialogs for navigating to a specified page, slide, or spreadsheet sheet have been converted to operate in asynchronous mode.\n
Support for embedded fonts in documents, the licenses of which prohibit editing, has been added (previously such fonts were ignored, but they can now be displayed when opening a document in read-only mode).\n
Builds for Linux are now generated for systems with x86-64-v2 architecture or newer.\n
On Windows and macOS platforms, instead of GDI and Aqua, the Skia library is used for rendering, which is employed in Google Chrome, Firefox, ChromeOS, Android, and Flutter, and supports rendering using GPU.\n
Changes in Writer:\n
\n
Paragraph alignment modes at the start or end have been added, allowing paragraphs to be aligned according to text direction (left to right or right to left).
<\/center>\n
The rendering of the grid has been made more noticeable. The «Snap to Grid» feature has realized more accurate alignment of objects to the grid.
<\/center>\n
An option has been added to prevent the dragging of selected text in Drag&Drop mode («Tools ▸ Options ▸ LibreOffice ▸ Writer ▸ Formatting Aids: Drag ‘n Drop»).\n
The display of floating tables along with paragraphs that have attributes preventing page breaks or mandating output on the same page with the following paragraph has been improved.\n
When tracking changes, the preservation of information about the old text formatting for ODT and DOCX has been improved. Tracking of partially deleted paragraphs has also been enhanced.\n
When pasting an image from the clipboard, an automatic caption is added below the image when the «AutoCaption» mode is enabled. <\/ul>\n
Changes in the Calc spreadsheet application:\n
\n
Support for connector lines has been added.
<\/center>\n
Support for the xmlMaps object has been added.\n
The dialog sorting capabilities have been expanded. In natural sorting mode, an option has been added to treat the character that separates the whole part of a number from the fractional part as a regular character, allowing for the sorting of IP addresses in systems that use a period as a separator. The locale settings specified in the sorting dialog are now preserved and restored. Setting the locale affects not only the choice of sorting algorithm but also locale-dependent sorting properties, such as the choice of separator character.
<\/center>\n
Support for the Biff12 clipboard format (Excel 2007+) has been added, allowing data to be transferred from Excel to Calc.\n
When saving in XLSX format, the format from Excel 2010+ is used by default.\n
The overlap of column headers for narrow columns has been eliminated.
<\/center>\n
Scrolling performance in spreadsheets with a large number of hidden columns has been improved. Operations with tables containing numerous shapes have been accelerated. The removal of duplicates has been sped up. Export to SVG format with a high number of bitmaps has been optimized.\n
Functionality has been added for automatically reflecting data in XML and JSON formats that have linkable value ranges (table data) into Calc sheets.
<\/center> <\/ul>\n
In the Impress presentation creation system, upon launching in Windows, support for the Microsoft Media Foundation API for audio and video playback has been implemented. MFPlay has been used for playback control.\n
Support for multi-user mode has been implemented in Base.\n
In Chart, the rendering of 3D charts has been accelerated, and partial support for correct triple style transformation of charts (OOXML \u2192 LO \u2192 OOXML) has been implemented. Hovering over color palette elements in the sidebar now provides a live preview of color changes in the active chart.
<\/center>\n
Options for actions with external links have been added to the PDF export settings.
<\/center>\n
The scripting system has been updated to Python 3.12. Python libraries for sqlite3, dbm, venv, and lzma are included. <\/ul>\n
