LibreOffice should use the native highlighting style of every > platform, and remove these highlighting customization options that it > currently has. I agree completely. Using the native highlighting method on every platform would make LibreOffice *feel* native, and would make it immeditaly feel familiar and handy to new users. So, while on the *rational* side this is not one of the most urgent enhancement requests, it is of considerable importance on the *emotional* side. A simple example of what I mean by rational/emotional importance: I have resisted for a long time to use GIMP, not because it would not provide most of the features I need for everyday imaging work, but simply because it felt so “clumsy” to me; I was far too familiar (a) to the native Mac OS (X) UI and (b) to Photoshop. Now GIMP 2.8 has got a semi-native Mac OS X UI, and suddenly I begin to feel comfortable with it, and actually to use it ... Because of this personal experience I think it is really important to make the UI feel native and familiar to the users, especially the simple basics of the UI, and the highlighting is definitely a part of these basics. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
