[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1429445@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

LibreOffice 4 creates too many icons in the launch bar.
When LibreOffice is not running, there is one LibreOffice Calc icon that cannot be removed.

When I open one ods file, another LibreOffice Calc icon appears in the
launch bar which opens the window with the open file.  The original icon
opens a new LibreOffice Calc window with Untitled.

When I open more ods files, sometimes more LibreOffice Calc icons appear
in the launch bar and sometimes they are controlled by the existing
icons.

xls and text files odt and doc always create more icons (LibreOffice
Calc or LibreOffice Writer).

If I open many files, the launch bar becomes too crowded and this is
inconvenient.

LibreOffice 3 had one icon for each application (LibreOffice Calc,
LibreOffice Write, etc.) which could be removed when the application is
not running, or be Locked to Launcher.  I think this is the appropriate
behavior.

I installed LibreOffice 4 using the following directions:
