Hi Frank
Thanks for your response
Sophie gave me your slides, so 'ill read them carefully
- is the violet color customizable ? what about daltonians ? What
about having different categories of smarttages with colors (would be
helpfull for various linguitic tools)
Tools - Options - Appearance - Smart tags lets you customize the smart
tag underline color.
ok. but should be a property of the smarttag imho
why the choice of violet by default ?
what about disbilities ? what about the red of spelchecking ?
There are no different categories of smart tags. How do you want to
categorize them? The only reasonable way to differentiate them would be
to let the user choose a different color for each smart tag type in the
smart tag options dialog.
yes, or at least, accesible via API
But what about regions of text, that are
covered by multiple smart tags (which of course is possible)? I'd opt
for 'keep it simple'.
yes, overlay is a problem
If we can avoid it between spellchecking/grammarchecking, i think that
it would be an interresting enhancement
The only thing to do is to translate the waves by some pixels (I once
looked at the code, the calulation semt laborious with tangents aso. may
be a constant).
- http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Smart_Tags#MOSTL_Smart_Tags
Why choosing the MS way ? Comparing to usual ODF self-explanatory xml
tags, these FL things sound odd ?
Any justification for this
No justification, just an explanation ;-)
This whole MOSTL stuff is *not* part of the smart tag API. It is just a
*sample* implementation of a recognizer/action pair, which is able to
evaluate MOSTL xml files. So feel free to define your own smart tag
defining xml scheme and write a recognizer and action for this scheme.
Well, my response will be political
We are actually fighting against MSOXML iso certifiation and FUD against ODF
Using sime MS xml tags, even if we are allowed (what about IP ?), will
give weapons to our oponents
Hope this helps,
Thanks Frank, it helped
