Bug ID: 161909
Summary: GPG and X.509: minor UI improvements (terminology,
Mozilla profile hints, UI resizing)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.4.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Blocks: 158839
This ticket is to fix some minor UI issues for GPG and X.509, taken from the
META bug 158839.
Certificate Manager Terminology
Make clear, that the the Certificate Manager is for GPG. It's NOT for X.509,
which would need to start a Mozilla program.
Certificate Chooser -> Start Certificate Manager
Options -> LibreOffice -> Security -> Certificate Manager
This Certificate Manager stuff didn't exist before GPG support.
resulting misunderstanding messup:
bug 133941:
Start Certificate Manager in Windows should start certificates system store
Clarify what's GPG and what's X.509 and name Mozilla profile:
"NSS Password" + "Certificate Chooser" dialogues:
Make clear which Mozilla profile is being used.
It's NOT enough to show this in NSS Password dialog, because Mozilla profile
might not have a password.
Nice to have: Hint that the Mozilla profile can be selected int the LibreOffice
options.

PDF signing should mention it only works with x509 certificates
Broken window resize rules:
IMPORTANT:
Check behavior for different LO UI frontends.
Linux vclplugin `gtk3`, `kde` and `gen`. (kde and gen are often broken while
gtk works fine)
Windows: ???
Nice-To-Have: macOS
Multiple GPG related windows and UI widgets have bad resizing behavior. And
often it would be helpful for the UI experience to maximize them to the full
screen size.
Task: Make GPG related windows and UI widgets properly resize.
"View Certificate" dialog (in the "Certificate Chooser")
- Lines in the details tab aren't fully visible. The content of the current
line is readable via the lower text area. But resizing the window may be much
more convenient to get an overview.
- Broken with all SAL vcplugin gen, kde4 and gtk3 on Linux.
Options -> LibreOffice -> Security -> Certificate Path / Certificate
- Everything is accessible and for entries with long names a vertical scrollbar
appears. But resizing the scrollable area may be much more convenient,
especially if there are a lot of Mozilla profiles on the system.
- Broken with SAL vclplugin `gen` and `kde4` on Linux. Works fine with SAL
vclplugin `gtk3`

REGRESSION: worked in LibreOffice-5.3 with `gen` (-> do bibisect)
Certificate Chooser:
Make the window and the contained widgets resizeable to help with many keys and
additional columns.
