@wxl Walter Ran some tests again today.
1.Connected to the Samba share manually and no problem mounting etc. Opened the share directly from LibreOffice Writer and the file came up as "read only" but this time no dialog box. 2. Proceeded onto your second suggestion - and got the same result - file opened in "read only " mode and no dialog box. Of interest is that if the share is mounted by PCManFM-Qt or thunar the file opens with the dialog box as in the original report. 3. Did not test thunar. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875717 Title: Opening file from Samba share results in Document in Use To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1875717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
