Bug ID: 119594
Summary: Implement "Most recent fields inserted"
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.1.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
This is an enhancement request for UX.
Rationale: When inserting the same field in many places in a text document, one
has to open the Insert Field dialog either from the menu or in the main
toolbar.
I'd like to propose a sub menu in the Fields menu or Fields Icon to list the 5
recently used fields, in a similar way as the "recent documents" in the File
menu.
Example of use case: Suppose we have a field which is a reference that contains
the Company name. The same field must be inserted in several pages.
Current process: go to the places where the company name is to be inserted,
choose menu Insert - Fields - More Fields and get the right tab (references),
choose the field and press Insert button. Repeat for the next occurence of the
Company name.
Suggested process: go to the places where the company name is to be inserted,
Choose menu Insert - Fields - More fields - then a list of the last 5 fields
inserted with their format is available in the menu. Pick one of them.
Complementary: Add a "Copy to clipboard" button to copy the reference field
with format to clipboard and let user paste in every place needed in the
document.
