Present: Prasanna Kumar, Cor, Heiko

Welcome to the design team, PK!

Tickets

 * EDITING: Selecting multiple draw objects should show (unselectable) handles 
for all objects
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74364
   + suggested: point mode on by default
   + difference in that case is that resizing affects not the (temporary) group 
but single object
   => go with the change and revert when users complain

 * Rename file without having to save again as a new file
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103694
   + WFM, but see c11
   + file operation make no sense within programs => WF
   + if macOS is the exception we should implement it => needinfo
   => comment on ticket and ask mac specialist

 * Search dialog doesn't support "whole word only" option
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127174
   + "entire cell" works but likely not whats requested
   + afraid of too many options (Heiko)
   => let's do it; "other options" is crowed but closed by default

 * Style indicator in document margin
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38194
   + mockup/requirements in c15 some "see also" here
   + good for a GSoC project
   + add numbers to the styles to not only rely on the color (Heiko)
   + looks nice (Cor)
   => will talk to some devs and blog to attract devs

[libreoffice-projects] Minutes from the UX/design meeting 2019-Aug-22

2019-08-22 Thread Heiko Tietze 
Present: Heiko

Tickets

 * Add option to show 'Apply Style' menu in plain text
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62926
   + extra option or combination with existing
   + unclear what controls would be affected (Stuart, c9)
   + afraid of too many options if there are more controls (Heiko)
   + Tools > Options > View is across modules and "Show preview of styles" 
would be Writer-only (Heiko)
   + run a poll on the blog/ml (Cor)
 + 
https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2019/08/15/poll-about-design-preview-for-dropdown-controls/
   * Add the new option under Options > View, next to "Show Font Preview"  
40%  (44 votes)
   * Combine the two (and perhaps more) controls under the same option  
29.09%  (32 votes)
   * Don't add another option  14.55%  (16 votes)
   * Add the new option under Options > Writer > View  11.82%  (13 votes)
   * Don't add another option and also remove the exiting "Show Font 
Preview"  4.54%  (5 votes)
 + taking the 2nd and 3rd option together (combine and no new) the majority 
is against a new checkbox
   => combine the styles dropdown WYSIWYG preview with View > Font

 * Safer application of options for each filter criterium in a pivot table
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125864
   + having options for each of the 3 parameters is an overkill and impairing 
usability
   => WFM

 + Extend context menu in a pivot table with mark actions
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125834
   + row/column selection is not limited to pivot tables
   + we have plenty of shortcuts to deal with data
   => WFM

 * Support context menus for management of list entries in pivot table setup 
dialogue
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125826
   + for accessibility it makes sense to have alternatives to the drag 'n drop 
actions
   => add context menu to field (Add to Row, Add to Column, Add to Values) and 
the
  respective options at those lists "Remove"

 * Support for multiple selection of list entries in data series selection
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122007
   + multiselection in the chart wizard lists makes no sense
   + removing entries is only necessary if the selected range has not been 
chosen carefully
   => WFM

 * Extended graphical user interface for the specification of several cell areas
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122012
   + add +/- buttons to the text field for more graphical interactions (Thomas)
   + would be the fact for all cases with multselections not only charts
   + manual editing is common
   + it wouldn't be clear how +/- buttons work, in particular what is removed
   => WFM

 * More explanatory title for "Compare documents" file select dialog
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=126618
   + rename the dialog title from "Compare to" to "Original document" (OP)
   + "Original" is not always correct (but most time)
   + have an explanatory static text (Thomas)
 + it's just a file dialog, adding text is a bad solution (Heiko)
   + help talks about "original"
   => let's change it
