Bug ID: 154593
Summary: Show a "Welcome Screen" on first startup with
appropriate info and choices
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: eyalr...@gmx.com
At the moment, when loading LibreOffice for the first time (or an LO module for
the first time), we show a tooltip, just like on any other startup.
That's not what we should do. We should have a welcome screen/dialog, for
making some of the choices which new users should be forced to make explicitly.
These include:
* Selecting the default UI mode (see bug 137931; personally I don't think this
is necessary, but the choice is a reasonable compromise in the long debate the
debate regarding menus-vs-tabbed UI).
* Choosing between Light Mode, Dark Mode and follow-the-desktop-environment's
Light/Dark choice
and may include other choices.
This welcome screen might be module-specific or appear once for all of LO, I'm
not sure which is the better idea. Also, it might have multiple screens to
navigate, if we want the user to make multiple choices.
A tooltip should appear on the second (or later?) and subsequent startup of
each module.
