Annual Report 2022: LibreOffice in 2022
On February 2, LibreOffice 7.3 was officially released after six months of work. Developers at Collabora, allotropia, CIB, Red Hat, NISZ, The Document Foundation and other companies and organisations – along with volunteers – worked on many new features.
For instance, large improvements were made to change tracking, with especially when tables are altered and paragraphs are moved (László Németh, NISZ). Colour Filter support was added to the “Standard Filter” dialog in Calc (Samuel Mehrbrodt, allotropia), while PowerPoint-compatible screen sizes were added to Impress (Jun Nogata). On top of the new features, there were many other general improvements to performance, compatibility and stability.
With the help of the Indonesian community, TDF produced a video to explain and demonstrate many of the new features in LibreOffice 7.3. This was linked to in the announcement, and embedded into various web news websites that covered the release. The video is also available on PeerTube.
