I believe some things are "experimental" because the code for implementing them is being rewritten or updated and they may not be considered fully stable or finished or up to quality standards or something. So even though macros have been around forever, the mechanism for recording them (as opposed to writing them) might still be under development. I don't know this for sure in the case of macros, but it seems logical to me. --Jean -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] 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
