There is limited learning needed to use the UI. Fairly easy to customize the UI to suit my needs. 1. b Some of the commands are in unusual locations, such as importing a file into Calc is not under file. Makes learning the UI and menus a little more time consuming, not difficult. The command is somewhere but where until one learns the menus. Can be confusing to new users. 2. Use screen real estate better on large monitors. Have more tool bars available in other locations particularly the side. User choice on the final location. 3. The leading Office productivity package for users with a strong user focus but not necessarily the most popular. I favor quality over market share if there needs to be a choice. -- Jay Lozier jsloz...@gmail.com -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to design+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
