            Bug ID: 154071
           Summary: Request: Rename "Square" gradient to "Rectangle"
                    gradient in the UI
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Draw a shape, set its area fill to a gradient of Type "Square". Use the
development tools to see which type is used in the API (FillGradient->Style).
You will find "RECT". Save the document and look into the markup (in
styles.xml). You will find style="rectangle".

Now do the same with Type "Quadratic". You will find "SQUARE" in the API and
style="square" in the markup.

Suggestion:
UI "Square"  ->  "Rectangle"
UI "Quadratic" -> "Quadratic (square)"

The term "quadratic" means mathematically "power 2", e.g. 5^2.
The geometrical term for a form with two pairs of parallel edges with equal
length is "square". But immediately renaming "Quadratic" to the correct
"Square" might be too confusing for the user. Therefore my suggestion to add it
in brackets.
