--- Comment #2 from mrmister001 <[email protected]> --- PLEASE, DO NOT CONFUSE A "RANDOM TEXT GENERATOR" WITH "AUTO-TEXT" ARE DIFFERENT THINGS You did not understand what a Lorem Ipsum generator is. Auto-Text is not useful here. Lorem Ipsum paste large quantities of radom texts in a paragraph, table, box, etc. Please, observe this: "large quantities of random texts". This is necessary because in that way you can see how the paragraph will looks like. Repeating texts our autocompleting is not useful because it forces you to complete several steps: hit f3, use auto-text, go to that menu. No. A Lorem Ipsum generator is an option you can find in a contextual menu after pressing the right button of your mouse and with a single click you are able to fill large quantities of text in boxes, tables, paragraphs, etc. To understand how this work and why is useful, is necessary to have some minutes of time and watch the video: https://youtu.be/ymbt223fa44?t=3m25s Why Auto-Text cannot be used: ----------------------------- - It cannot be used becuase to see the aspect of a document you need "RICH TEXT", that is a lot of different text. That allows you to appreciate things like line spacing, kerning, fonts styles, colors and very important THE GENERAL COMPOSITION OF THE PAGE. Repeating a lot of time Lorem Ipsum is not useful. A designer cannot do anything with that. Again, to understand what this feature is, you need to be a designer. Why is useful a Random Text Generator (Lorem Ipsum Generator): -------------------------------------------------------------- - Because it allows you to create templates very fast, having the perfectly defined and ready to use. - Because allows you to create memorandums ready to use, or standard letters, circulars, ready to use, that need to be filled with random text, that later on, will be replaced by the final text. However, is necessary to have the documents already finished with a random text to see how they looks like. Please, do not confuse with Auto-Text. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
