Bug ID: 129200
Summary: UI: Page sidebar: "Same Content" on header/footer
sections is absolutely illogical
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval, topicUI
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Page sidebar in Writer has "Same Content" dropdown, with the following
elements: "All Pages"; "First Page"; "Left and Right Pages"; "First, Left and
Right Pages".
These are expected to mean that e.g. "First Page" is first page is *different*.
But how could one possibly read "Same Content: First Page" as "Different
content on first page"?! Or how could one read "Same Content: First, Left and
Right Pages", and see the difference with "Same Content: All" - and again,
understand that the former means "different content on the listed categories"?
The wording of the control needs to be changed.
Simple proposal: change "Same Content" to "Different Content", and "All" to
"None". But possibly better not try to over-simplify the UI (that dreaded "by
all means, try to squeeze everything into one line!!!") and just make a
checkbox group with possibility to choose what has own content.
