A follow-up, Jean. We might have to use Linux for the screen shots: if
you look at Figure 7 you will see that the 'E' looks like an 'F', making
the instruction to place the cursor to the right of the 'E' somewhat
moot! This is also the case as I'm creating the new set of screen shots,
so it looks like a flaw in the dialogue rendering under Windows (XP at
least).
Oh, bother. I had forgotten about that problem, which has been
around since OOo2.0 was first released. I suspect it won't be
fixed in OOo v2.1 (which is due out this coming week), as it's
not a bug that affects the functionality. I don't have the
Release Candidate for 2.1 installed on WinXP, or I would check.
Under Debian Linux ('Etch') the dialogues render correctly.
Any thoughts?
If you or Carl or someone can redo all the dialogs in this
chapter using Linux, that would be great. The only other choices
I can see are to redo the Insert Insert/Table dialogs in Linux
and leave the others alone, or just redoing the problem dialogs
in Linux -- either of which means inconsistent figures in this
chapter.
I personally don't mind having a mix of operating systems for the
figures in a chapter, but as a group we've decided to be
consistent within any one chapter.
Cheers, Jean
