Bug ID: 115096
Summary: For a Pattern Field please reverse the order of the
mask related properties
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.0.0.0.beta2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Base
Assignee: [email protected]

Screenshot of "Properties: Pattern Field" dialog
Please see attached snapshot for how the properties for a Pattern Field are
currently organized in the dialog. As it is now the "Literal mask" property is
positioned below the "Edit mask" property.
Suggestion: Reorder properties for a Formatted Field and put "Literal mask"
before "Edit mask", i.e. reverse them.
Reason: You will probably always want to write the literal first. For example,
for a standard phone number you would write:
(___) ___-____ <- this is probably the first thing you would write.
LNNNLLNNNLNNNN <- then you would use that to write this.
It would be less obvious to first write: LNNNLLNNNLNNNN, until you had the
(___) ___-____ in mind.
Thank you!
_________________________
(Note: I plan to subsequently submit an enhancement request to rename these two
properties. These names do not accurately reflect what these properties are,
i.e. it appears there are two masks operations, Edit and Literal, but in fact
there is just one mask operation with two input parameters.)
