Bug 51665

Verified and marking lowest priority, new. I think it's a valid request but not sure how many people will benefit from it or how much work it will take.

Honestly, I don't think that raising the priority will make it any more likely to occur. Looking at the open office bug I see that quite a few people multi-voted, so it's not really 37 votes. The lowest enhancement is a combination of the amount of work and how many people will benefit from it -- the first is objective, the second is subjective. I've been using OOo/LO for a really long time and I've personally never thought that I needed diagonal lines, nor have I ever received a document that required me to have them.

I'll bring this up in the dev chat and see if I can assign it to someone. The enhancement is more likely to get done if I can locate someone to accept it faster rather than raising the priority. 

Thanks for the information that you've given.

@Joel: One thing, I fully agree is that there are more urgent bugs and enhancements, which should get attention first.

I'll methodically attempt to create/use a db with Base on OSX in next few days (for me it's Ubuntu by day, and OSX by night in GMT), and if I fail will raise new issue. If you have any advice/pointers meanwhile, it would be gratefully received! I would be happy to be directly emailed (should anyone here wish to) about diagnosing, etc., if that helps keep noise down here.

"No Java installation could be found"

I then have to go through the rigmarole of redefining my JDK11 as the selected environment, in order to continue working with my ODB file.

If I close LO6203 and switch back to LO6152, I get asked the same question again, when I load up a database requiring any kind of Java instantiation (hsqldb, or any wizard function http://connstr.net/  that relies on Java).
In current production release versions (6152 and 6203), the annoying problem of Java detection (or lack thereof) has come back, albeit in a slightly different form, with OpenJDK11.

Note that this is not mysql dependent, that was just used as an example. I get the same issue when trying to load tables from an embedded hsqldb, or when starting the database wizards that rely on Java to function.

And it seems I have no "embedded" database of any kind: I cannot create a db from within the app. [See screenshot "_000-libo-embed-none.png" attached.]

I have spent several hours (more than 4, less than 10) trying to solve this, and  have failed miserably. I have read through this thread more than once, and have no more options.

I use Base happily on Ubuntu, and would seriously like to be able to access Base on OSX as well. I will happily respond to prompts to diagnose, etc., but I've reached the limits of my ability at this point.
