Dear Sirs, Madams, What I really would have for a few years now is a multiple layer document. MS Word has not open source, and I hate the idea MS would make money out of it, so I tried to create it myself - and I thought ofcource of OpenOffice. As I said this was a few years back, but I'm not really sure wether I can make such nor I have the time to focus. So I just hope you can fulfill this wish of mine. The idea is very simple. It is as layers in Photshop for instance. Let's make an UseCase document. This document should be read by Customers, by chiefs, managers, testers, deveopers, architects etcetera. I imagine the customer would not like to see much detail once the document has really developed when he/she has to make a judgement, nor would a project manager. A tester or developer though, would very much see all the detail. Wouldn't it be nice thay ycan all read the very same document not disturbed by too much or too little detail or even hide some layers which are not applicable at some moment. If one could authirize certain layers to certain roles etcetra. The advantage also is that if there would be some change I do not have to change it in multiple documents. Of cource the document is smart enough not to leave whitespace when some parts of the document are hidden. There are many examples to think of, but Ii chose one from my daily life. Let' u start with Writer first, but one minute brainstorm should feed you with many ideas for Calc.
Thanks, regards, Sander van der Sloot
