[libreoffice-design] Open Colour Systems Collection 2.0 released

Open Colour Systems 2.0 Released


freieFarbe e.V. / freeColour is pleased to announce the release of Open Colour 
Systems Collection (OCSC) 2.0.

Following the release of OCSC 1.0, freieFarbe / freeColour has been been 
recognised by German authorities as a non-profit organisation. The release of 
OCSC is the first one after the official recognition.

OCSC 2.0 comprises ten additional colour palettes. More importantly, it is now 
also available in Adobe's Swatch Exchange Format (ASE), as well as a Plain Text 
Format version with the file extension CLF.

All colours have been measured from vendor-supplied colour references with a 
spectrophotometer.

Since freieFarbe e.V. / freeColour is an advocate of the use of the CIE LAB/HLC 
colour model as a free and reasonable alternative to proprietary colour 
collections, colour values in the palette files are in CIE LAB.

Colour Software Release Planned
===

freieFarbe e.V. / freeColour also intends to release a previously closed-source 
colour software product written in RealBasic as Open Source under a GPL 2+ 
licence. fF / fC hopes to find contributors who are interested in porting the 
code from RealBasic to C++ and Qt, as well as merging the features of 
Swatchbooker and the original product. The majority of the code is UI-related, 
but the essential algorithms (the core of the product) are well-commented. Any 
assistance with respect to the organisation of the release of the source code 
would be welcome.



About freieFarbe e.V. / freeColour:
===


freieFarbe e.V. / freeColour is a non-profit organisation that was founded in 
2016 by German and Swiss colour professionals after having worked as an 
informal initiative without legal status for several years. our motto is "We 
want to unchain colours". The organisation is looking for cooperation with 
colour experts, software developers and users around the globe who share our 
goals. You are invited to become a member and/or contribute your own project.

freieFarbe e.V. / freeColour is convinced that the design world will benefit 
from truly free colours and better colour software.

Hi Andreas,

Not many icons were changed/added for 5.3, but anything that i've 
noticed went into the breeze work google doc.


https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dpMFgmkQy4BsyRIKH97ZLPTU6NdvXIYk3Yossj6sSQM/edit#

If anyone else find missing icons in the breeze icon theme, please do 
let us know.

didn't know the time shadule, if it's not to late).

It would be very helpful if you have a wiki page where you add the list
with new icons in the next release cause I'd like to update the breeze
icon set, but without the icon names it's not easy.

I'll tested the experimental notebook bar and there are some icons
missing in breeze but also in (all) other icon sets, so the list would
be useful not only for me.

cheers

[libreoffice-design] Minutes of the Design Hangout: 2016-Dec-22

2016-12-22 Thread Heiko Tietze 
Present: Jay, Heiko, Tomaz, Kendy

Organization

 * Notebookbar blog post has been published
   + 
https://design.blog.documentfoundation.org/2016/12/21/evolving-past-the-restrictions-of-toolbars/
   + many comments, mostly positive and open-minded

Tickets

 * List of new icons for 5.3 (Andreas)
   + there was an email about lower case?
 + Andreas asked about it in the bug report and i replied to him
   https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87914
   + contact Andreas and point to the previously mentioned GDoc (Jay)
 + 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dpMFgmkQy4BsyRIKH97ZLPTU6NdvXIYk3Yossj6sSQM/edit
   + Have a wiki page?
 + undecided; a lot of work for maybe not much outcome

 * Dialog control tooltips (Heiko)
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104413
 + Consistency of every control to have a tooltip (Heiko)
 + Lots of translation work to add tooltips to .ui files (Jay, Heiko)
 + Tooltips already provided by help (Jay)
  ESC: make a proposal --> here it is 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/18u_DcmjyIPS1HzxhLEMu_1teFL-1uGGs_Xjfpg1l4d4/
 + self-explanation is important (Jay)
 + are there any applications that have tooltips for everything? (Jay)
 + MSO does not have tooltips for controls (Jay)
 + date created for Explorer (Jay)
+ nothing when hover the tree / search field - nothing (Jay)
+ no tooltips in the dialogs either (Jay)
 + always popping up tooltips in the dialogs would be annoying (Jay)
 + in toolbars it's fine, as buttons dont have labels and only icon 
which isnt always understood (Jay)
 + we can have the status quo: no tooltips in the dialogs (Heiko)
 + want to either have it everywhere, or not at all (Heiko)
 + what blocks us from allowing it, and evaluate when there is
   the first dialog that has tooltips? (Kendy)
 + a11y concern (Heiko)
 + tested that, works fine (Jay)
 + every control has the associated label (Jay)
 + some corner cases: W and H instead of "width" and "height" (Jay)
 + improved the labels there
 + would like to see a dialog with such tooltips in action first, before we
   take a decision like "everything has to have tooltips" (Kendy)
 + not happy about this, but can live with this (Heiko)

 + guidelines in general:
 + should codify what is a result of how things are progressing, never
   should be used as "it is in the guidelines, now you all have to 
change
   the implementation"

 * Area tab heavily increases size of dialog
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103225
   + Issues with high dpi likely because of fix values (Tomaz)
 + please revert the patch
 + double-check then with various DE

 * Color palettes
   + all changes are in 5.3
   + Blog post draft finished
 + 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1faOPqiJFmaj_9HJJqJKnEMg8biQj1bBEyOoTs5k3qes
 + Read over it once again (Jay), publish next week (Heiko)
