Hi, Sorry for the delay. I was busy working on the new solver feature.
Printing in Calc is an important task and there are several areas of possible improvements. Changing the page border in Page preview is one of these. So thank you for taking care of this issue. My comments: - Changing the page margins will change the page breaks of a table. So this also affects the page break preview. But the page break preview could currently not be reached from page preview. Excel allows to call the page break preview from that view directly. - Please add a button to the toolbar to show/hide margins. Not every user wants to see those borders. Default should be hidden in my opinion. - At least on Windows systems, the printer driver provides the minimal page margin of the assigned printer. (i.e. press Page Down key in a margin field of Writer Page dialog to test this behavior) So maybe we should snap but not limit to these minimal page margins. - We should change the line color if the user moves the line outside the minimal page margin. - Please do not show dialogs, if a margin cannot be further dragged. I would propose to change the color of a line in that case (i.e red) to give feedback and restrict further movement outside the allowed area. - Please do not use no exclamation points in dialogs (table 2 & 3). It is like shouting the user. Please don't hesitate to put me on CC or write me directly for any Calc related UX question.
