--- Comment #6 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> --- The dialog had in its beginning the term "text baseline", that still occurs in help and tips. But the term "baseline" has a special meaning in typography and should therefore not be used here as term for the path. So in all cases use 'path' instead. The dialog has no section headings in LO 7.6. Do we really need so many section headings? The current tooltip "Baseline Off" is wrong. Not the "Baseline" (the path) is turned off, but the entire effect is turned off. I suggest a simple "Off". The initial dialog had a clear distance between the "Off" button and the four buttons that determine the type of the effect. That is missing here. The dividing line is not clear enough. Is it possible to have a wide distance between the 'Off' button and the other four buttons? Or align the "Off" button with the left edge of the dialog window and the group of the four type buttons with the right edge of the dialog window? Instead of heading "Style" the term "Type" might be better. I think, that the terms "Rotate", "Upright", "Slant Horizontal" and "Slant Vertical" are correct. They describe, which transformation is applied to the individual characters. A text like the suggested 'Characters Perpendicular to Path' instead of 'Rotate' is too long for a tooltip. It would be good for an extended tip, but such does not yet exist for the buttons in the dialog window. In content, the suggested heading 'Orientation and Alignment' is correct, but it might be too long. Perhaps only 'Alignment'? I disagree with 'Flip' instead of 'Orientation'. In all places in LibreOffice I know, 'flip' is used synonym to 'mirror'. But the button here means, "Use the path so as if the path had the inverted orientation." and that is unrelated to mirroring. I agree with changing "Position and Indent". Instead of the suggested 'Vertical and Horizontal Offset' I would use only 'Offset'. The suggested text is too long for the compact design of the dialog window. Instead of the suggested heading 'Path, Contour and Shadow' I would divide the buttons in two groups, one with heading 'Path and Contour' or only 'Path', and the other with heading 'Shadow'. The tooltip should not be 'Show path' instead of 'Contour' but 'Hide path', because that is the action when the button is pressed. The tooltip for the pressed button should then be 'Show path'. Is it possible to have a tooltip depending on button state? I agree with 'Add Text Shadow' -> 'Drop Shadow' and 'Text Shadow Slant' -> 'Slanted Shadow'. When the buttons are divided in two groups, the heading "Shadow offset" could be removed. It is clear then, that it is a setting for the shadow. Using 'offset' in the heading does not fit to shadow kind 'slanted shadow'. Icons change when the shadow type changes, but the tooltips currently do not change. In case of 'slanted shadow' it needs to be 'angle' and 'length', currently it is 'distance'. The extended tip has an 'or'. That is not ideal. Only the part that belongs to the respective shadow type should be used. Is it possible to show one group of icons, fields and tooltips for case 'drop shadow' and a different group at the same position in case of 'slanted shadow'? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
