--- Comment #10 from Tex2002ans <[email protected]> --- Yes, I fully agree with V Stuart Foote's comments in Comment 1, Comment 2, and Comment 4: - Need more Vertical Tabs!!! - Allow Scrolling = Good! - Allow Resizing = Good! - Oddly, only these Writer menu's sizes seem to be hardcoded, like Comment 4 noted. - Helpful for menus that aren't quite-yet-completed in design too. - See Bug #161492. - A few labels accidentally have a few letters "going off the screen" now, like: - Right-Click > Edit Style - "Text Flow" tab -> "Split Options". I think the list potentially "being too tall" is a non-problem, especially if it gets scrolling enhancement #165989. Bug #165989 also allows us to split out even MORE tabs in the future, like pulling "Hyphenation" out of "Text Flow". - - - Instead of stuff being cut off vertically... What I currently see as a serious issue is: - "Tabs" with text cut off *horizontally*. - The tab column's width is non-stretchy. This especially becomes a problem on computers set with HUGE TEXT SIZE. STEPS-TO-REPRODUCE 1. In Windows OS: - Open Start Menu. - Search "Text Size" setting. - Set "Text Size" -> 200%. 2. Open LibreOffice Writer. 3. Go to any dialog with Vertical Tabs. BUG: See only a few letters of the "tab name" appears before chopping off and turning into an ellipsis. Expected these to appear fully: - Indents & Spacing - Alignment Actual: - Indents ... - Alignm... with the rest of the tab names "cut off". I assume this is even worse in some localizations over others. (I first noticed this issue while working on an 80-year-old grandma's laptop. It was a very old laptop: low resolution plus ENORMOUS FONT SIZES set by the OS. But this issue happens on a huge 4K monitor too.) Note: Old horizontal tabs, the labels correctly grew ENORMOUS along with all the other text. - - - I agree with ocleyr2lalune's input: > this change of display is not applied to all dialog boxes, so it's unfinished > and incomprehensible to an "end" user who doesn't know how a feature matures. Yes, it did currently feel it was rushed and a little half-baked. I was very excited Vertical Tabs finally made it, but could've used a bit more refinement before mass public release. Now that they're here though, let's try to incrementally (and quickly) move them in the right direction. Once we get passed this huge speed bump, refining a few of these initial menus, I think it'll be a lot smoother sailing after that. Note: I wrote a tiny bit about that in this comment on the LO subreddit: - "Plans for a total UI/UX redesign?" - https://old.reddit.com/r/libreoffice/comments/1k2h0lr/plans_for_a_total_uiux_redesign/mo14ts6/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
