LibreOfficeDid you know that #LibreOffice has a built-in QR and barcode generator? Now you do 😉 https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/shared/01/qrcode.html #foss #opensource
Maddie (MIGRATING SOON)@libreoffice macOS is my favorite FOSS operating system!
furicle@mjdxp why do you have to be like that?
FOSS software is worthwhile, wherever it runs.
There's more than enough negativity running around already.
@furicle because it's weird that a FOSS project is advertising itself on a non-free operating system
Sky Leite@mjdxp There's nothing weird about that. Even if it were on a free operating system, it would also be running on non-free hardware (likely) with non-free drivers. This is an impossible standard to meet.

Oui c'est très bien, mais malheureusement il n'y a toujours pas la possibilité d'utiliser les champs de publipostage dans l'éditeur de QR codes.

Disons que c'est la première brique, mais c'est vrai qu'il manque encore quelques paramétrages, comme insérer un espace vide ou directement une image au milieu, modifier la forme des pixels pour arrondir certaines parties de différentes manières...

Victor Forberger@libreoffice I would love to see #LibreOffice include US postal coding for addresses (the coding just above the mailing address). I know there are some add-on that do this, but they have not worked for me in my experience.
Beat@libreoffice Nice. In comparison to #scibus, i like the margin. I hope scribus will implement the margin soon too.
Mizuiro@libreoffice Hey, I know that url!
MattJohns@mizuiro @libreoffice I’ve used that QR code! I think recognising a QR code must be the nerdiest thing I’ve ever done 😀
The Tech Lord ⊕ `Lex Pendragon@libreoffice I checked the QR code, and got what I expected. I was not disappointed.

That's cool!
If you want something lighter, you can use the barcode plugin with #TiddlyWiki to generate barcodes right in your browser!
The bar code plugin is already installed on the demo page at TiddlyWiki.com.
There's also the ability to read-in bar codes from your camera. (To be honest, I haven't tried this yet).
Geoffrey Conley 🏳️🌈🖥️🚲@libreoffice ope don't show this to the marketing execs who want to "limit who has access to make QR codes"
Sparrow 🎄🎁@libreoffice : this is super useful! 🤩
mmu_man@libreoffice now if only it could use custom fields in the source… 🤔
Ch M[ae][iy]e?r 🇪🇺 🤍 🇬🇱@libreoffice I prefer to use (lib)qrencode from CLI.
FaulkmoreThis is cuz you believe strongly in the unix philosophy of one software doing one thing well.
everything into one software --> bloatware
Prefer sphinx over libreoffice.
Uninstalled libreoffice
qtqr is a linux desktop GUI for QR codes.
... maintainability matters so went with a python package
Starraven@libreoffice
I see what you did there...

Bruce Elrick@libreoffice Today I learned!
Paul Martin@libreoffice It might be useful to mention that "barcode" produces a Code128 barcode, rather than any other type.

@libreoffice thats a nice qr code, wonder where it leads
Myrakel@libreoffice No, I didn't know. That's interesting.
Joan CiberSheep (ell/això)@libreoffice Ooooh! I didn't know. I always imported them through @inkscape (that has also a generator)
Lovely
John M. GambleApologies for nit-picking, but your help page says the menu choice is "OLE Object" when it is in fact just "Object".
@jgamble It says "OLE Object" here (LibreOffice 24.2). What version are you using, on what operating system?
Latest LMDE, latest or nearly so Libreoffice (it's Saturday morning my time, I am not turning on the computer for a while).
I have to ask: why on Earth would LO choose to add the adjective "OLE"? It adds no useful information (even for Windows users) and merely clutters up the menu list.
LibreOffice DesignInteresting discussion, especially the implication that the "OLE Object" submenu is a little bit of a dumping ground.
"Also, chart is not in the OLE submenu, but it is an OLE object!"

No, I didn't know that, but I know which Youtube video id starts with dQw4w 😄

αxel simon ↙︎↙︎↙︎@libreoffice That's great. If it's not made readily available and easily discoverable, it's not useful though.
@axx
Onglet "Insérer", puis menu "Insérer" (pour voir les outils utilisés moins couramment) et "Qr code et code-barre" me semble assez logique. Comment faire plus intuitif !?

Yes, but it can't generate QR codes from the contents of cells in Calc. That's a missed chance.

@edi Not a missed chance – an opportunity for someone to add it! We do all we can, but we're a volunteer-driven project with very limited resources. If you'd like that extra feature, please help us to implement it 😊 https://www.libreoffice.org/community/get-involved/

Benjamin Kwiecień 🇵🇸@libreoffice What the hell, LibreOffice!?
@ben You OK there buddy? 😁
Nosaj 
I legit need this at work lol
Albirew@libreoffice is it possible on calc to generate dynamically a QR code based on another cell?
EG:
cell A1: identifier
cell A5: another identifier
cell A8: QR code of: text from A1 ";" text from A5
EG:
cell A1: identifier
cell A5: another identifier
cell A8: QR code of: text from A1 ";" text from A5
@Albirew Not yet! You could submit it as an enhancement request here: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org – But of course, we're a volunteer-driven project with very limited resources. To get a new feature more quickly, you can consider helping our volunteers, or funding a developer. Thank you ☺️👍
