This is both a great idea, but sounds funny to my ears ... I have been told for years that drawing on the gray background is quite difficult, so I should forget about that.

These, needing transparency and some fading, would make the feature "kicking a...". [1] But, I'm aware that this means a lot of work ... but since the basic functionality is there, we can relax and it rather seems like adding a bit cream on top. Do you think there is anybody on the dev list to help us here, maybe getting mentored to revise other stuff as well? Anyway, some mouse-over effects need to be as well (not an urgent issue, but its good manners for a UI to have something like that). Finally, still thinking about your and Oliver's proposal ... the combination of all our thoughts would lead to quite some added value. Unfortunately, I miss the time (at the very moment) to draw something like that for a discussion. If anybody jumps in ... great :-) Again, thanks for all your great involvement :-) Cheers, Christoph (who expects a nice 3.5 release) [1] Currently, the long delay helps to not bother users, but they might not be able to "connect the dots" that hovering over the header/footer is the reason for letting the tab appear. So, here an example how that might work if the user just hovers (not clicks): * If the user hovers the header, then the header/footer indicator appears after 0,5 seconds (100% to 60% transparency in another 0,5s). --> indicator shown quickly, but unobtrusively * As long as the mouse pointer hovers the header/footer indicator, then switch to 0% transparency. --> mouse over effect, shows the "active" element * If the user "leaves" the "just hovered" header/footer (section or indicator), then fade out the indicators in 1 second. --> looks good _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
