== Synopsis ==
Since the dumming down of the Xfinity Gateway, where it is no long possible to configure advanced settings with the web-interface on the router lan IP address. Now parts can be done in the web-interface like setting static IP addresses. While other parts like Port Forwarding must be done with the Xfinity app.
The problem is that in the Xfinity app port forwards can only be done to devices that are in the DHCP table. To resolve this, devices with a Static IP address have to be put in DHCP table with a reserved IP address.
 

== Implementation ==
=== On the Router ===
Go to the web interface on the Xfinity router and login.
This is default 10.0.0.1, with account admin and password password.
Then at the left side pane under ['''Connected Devices'''] / ['''Devices'''], Select in the right side pane the ['''ADD DEVICE WITH RESERVED IP'''] button, and add information in the ['''Add Device with Reserved IP Address'''] form.
* Hostname:
* MAC Address:
* Reserved IP Address:
* Comments:

=== On the Xfinity App ===
In the Xfinity App in the Bottom row select the WiFi button.
Then in the new screen select [ '''View WiFi equipment''' ] Half way the screen.
In the WiFi equipment screen select [ '''Advanced settings''' ].
In the Advanced settings screen select [ '''Port forwarding''' ].
In the Port Forwarding screen select the ['''Add Port Forward'''] button.
In the Add Port Forward screen under the [ '''Select one''' ] option select which should be in the list with its Hostname.

Open LibreOffice apps Individually on MacOS

2022-04-04T22:18:33Z

Wikiadmin: /* Making it Nicer */

<hr>
Return [[LibreOffice Knowledge Base]]

Next [[LibreOffice Knowledge Base]]
<hr>

== Synopsis ==

LibreOffice on MacOs is a monolithic application, it is just one executable. There are no individual applications like on Linux or Windows, i.e. writer or scalc. 
It is however possible to start LibreOffice with blank writer, calc or other LibreOffice document. 
This is done with the use of the terminal application and the open command. 

== Implementation ==
This implementation is tested on macOS Catalina with LibreOffice 7.3 and using the zsh in terminal. 

=== Bare Bones ===
Locate the LibreOffice application in finder. 
* Right Click and select | '''Show Package Content''' |
* Then open | '''Content''' | and |'''MacOs''' |
* Locate the soffice executable.
Now open an terminal and type at the prompt | '''open -a ''' | , observe the space after the a.
Now drag the soffice icon from the finder window to the terminal window. You should get the path to the soffice executable. 
After that type | '''--new --args --writer''' |
You should have something like this
<pre>open -a /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice --new --args --writer</pre>
Now press enter and LibreOffice should open with a blank writer document. 

The same can be done for: calc, draw, impress, math, global and web. 
Just replace: -- writer with: --calc , --draw , --impress , --math , --global or --web .

=== Automate ===

The process can be automated using a shell script.
Open TextEditor and create a file swriter. 
In the document type or copy past:
<pre>
#!/bin/zsh
open -a /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice --new --args --writer
</pre>
Open terminal and locate the swriter document.
Make the document executable.
<pre>chmod +x swriter</pre>
You can now double click the swriter script in finder and Libreoffice will open with a blank writer document. 
You might need to change | '''#!/bin/zsh''' | with | '''#!/bin/bash''' |, if you use bash instead of zsh.

=== Making it nice ===
The scripts icons can be replaced by the appropriate document icons. 
Again locate the LibreOffice application in finder. 
* Right Click and select | '''Show Package Content''' |
* Then open | '''Content''' | and | '''Resources''' |
* Locate the icons at the bottom of the window.
Now open for instance the | '''text.icns''' | file with preview. 
Select the icon with [command]A and copy [command]C. 
Now select the swriter script and [command]I, which gives the | '''Get Info''' | dialog. 
Select the icon in the top left corner and past the icon copied before with [command]V. Now close the dialog and you have a nice icon.

There is one particular behavior using the shell scripts 
Although the terminal window closes after the script is completed, a Terminal Instance without a window exist after the LibreOffice application is closed! 
To prevent that we can call the shell-script from an Apple-Script. 
To do this for swriter open Script Editor. 
Under '''File''' select '''new'''. 
Then type or Copy / Past in the AppleScript pane:
<pre>do shell script "~/swriter"</pre>
Then press the run Key (The right pointing triangle), to see if there are no issues.
Now save the script, but be aware. The Apple-Script needs to be save as an application. Preferably in the Application Folder.
To do this select '''File Save'''. 
In the dialog box under '''File Format:''' select '''[Application]''' 
Now we have to copy and pass the icon for writer similar as we did above for the shell-script. 
This can be done for the other applications in the same way. Before you start you might want to place the shell-scripts in a special folder. Dragging the shell-script icon from the finder to the AppleScript pane will copy the location in the apple script.

== Synopsis ==

LibreOffice on MacOs is a monolithic application, it is just one executable. There are no individual applications like on Linux or Windows, i.e. writer or scalc. 
It is however possible to start LibreOffice with blank writer, calc or other LibreOffice document. 
This is done with the use of the terminal application and the open command. 

== Implementation ==
This implementation is tested on macOS Catalina with LibreOffice 7.3 and using the zsh in terminal. 

=== Bare Bones ===
Locate the LibreOffice application in finder. 
* Right Click and select | '''Show Package Content''' |
* Then open | '''Content''' | and |'''MacOs''' |
* Locate the soffice executable.
Now open an terminal and type at the prompt | '''open -a ''' | , observe the space after the a.
Now drag the soffice icon from the finder window to the terminal window. You should get the path to the soffice executable. 
After that type | '''--new --args --writer''' |
You should have something like this
<pre>open -a /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice --new --args --writer</pre>
Now press enter and LibreOffice should open with a blank writer document. 

The same can be done for: calc, draw, impress, math, global and web. 
Just replace: -- writer with: --calc , --draw , --impress , --math , --global or --web .

=== Automate ===

The process can be automated using a shell script.
Open TextEditor and create a file swriter. 
In the document type or copy past:
<pre>
#!/bin/zsh
open -a /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice --new --args --writer
</pre>
Open terminal and locate the swriter document.
Make the document executable.
<pre>chmod +x swriter</pre>
You can now double click the swriter script in finder and Libreoffice will open with a blank writer document. 
You might need to change | '''#!/bin/zsh''' | with | '''#!/bin/bash''' |, if you use bash instead of zsh.

=== Making it nice ===
The scripts icons can be replaced by the appropriate document icons. 
Again locate the LibreOffice application in finder. 
* Right Click and select | '''Show Package Content''' |
* Then open | '''Content''' | and | '''Resources''' |
* Locate the icons at the bottom of the window.
Now open for instance the | '''text.icns''' | file with preview. 
Select the icon with [command]A and copy [command]C. 
Now select the swriter script and [command]I, which gives the | '''Get Info''' | dialog. 
Select the icon in the top left corner and past the icon copied before with [command]V. Now close the dialog and you have a nice icon. 
This process can be repeated for the other applications.

== Synopsis ==

LibreOffice on MacOs is a monolithic application, it is just one executable. There are no individual applications like on Linux or Windows, i.e. writer or scalc. 
It is however possible to start LibreOffice with blank writer, calc or other LibreOffice document. 
This is done with the use of the terminal application and the open command. 

== Implementation ==

This implementation is done on macOS Catalina with LibreOffice 7.3 and using the zsh in terminal.

=== Bare Bones ===
Locate the LibreOffice application in finder. 
* Right Click and select | '''Show Package Content''' |
* Then open | '''Content''' | and |'''MacOs''' |
* Locate the soffice executable.
Now open an terminal and type at the prompt | '''open -a ''' | , observe the space after the a.
Now drag the soffice icon from the finder window to the terminal window. You should get the path to the soffice executable. 
After that type | '''--new --args --writer''' |
You should have something like this
<pre>open -a /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice --new --args --writer</pre>
Now press enter and LibreOffice should open with a blank writer document. 

The same can be done for: calc, draw, impress, math, global and web. 
Just replace: -- writer with: --calc , --draw , --impress , --math , --global or --web .

=== Automate ===

The process can be automated using a shell script.
Open TextEditor and create a file swriter. 
In the document type or copy past:
