The intrusion of spellchecker is > simply annoying. I think to have the spellchecker in the context menu is a nice feature. But I would agree, that sometimes context menus in LO are getting overloaded. Therefore, we need think how we can design the context menus more user-friendly and intuitive. We should for instance think whether the context menu items TEXT and BULLETS AND NUMBERING are really necessary in the context menu. The same would for me apply to EDIT STYLE, because this is a further menu for all the other options all together. Why can't I find it in the menu FORMAT at the top? In addition, the context menu item FONT is for me worthless, because I am faster choosing it from the menu at the top (scrolling down in the context menu takes much longer) and in addition there you have a preview of the font, which you don't have in the context menu. Furthermore, I can't even select all available fonts because it stops at the font JasmineUPC. @Thorsten: Could this issue maybe be something for you? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
