Ok, i didn't say it had no use, i said most users don't use it, maybe we could hide it by default, make it available in View. > (page) Style information is always useful to have.

That's right, but you don't always use it so maybe it shouldn't always be there. Maybe it could appear next to the sheet selection when you have sheets out of range, and make the X editable (in sheet X of #) Sum: I think this shows the value of the selected rectangle, >> which you can see inside the rectangle, no need for it either. >> > > You can change the function applied to the current selection (sum by > default): just right click on the status bar.

You are right, but maybe the info could be inside the dialog, have something like "original: xxxxx New: xxxxx" > The person looking at the presentation is not always the creator.

What i say is that we should hide all the "might want" and "might need" stuff, and make it possible to add it in case someone needs it. That way we make it simple and pretty for the average user, but powerful enough for professionals. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ 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
