Bug ID: 155926
Summary: Rename line styles like "Long dot", "Double dash" and
"Line Style 9"
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Some of the line styles in LO have somewhat confusing names.
"Long dot" does not actually mean that the dots are long. Instead, there's more
space between the dots.
Suggestion: "Sparse dots"
"Double dash" does not actually mean that the dashes appear in pairs. They're
just longer.
Suggestion: "Double-length dashes" or "Extra long dashes"
"Line Style 9" needs a better name, if it needs to exist at all. (Seems like
another dashed line.)
There's also no consistency with regard to singular and plural in the style
names. I suggest using plurals consistently (i.e. dashes and dots instead of
dash and dot).
Steps to Reproduce:
1. e.g. Draw a line in Draw, change the line style.
Actual Results:
The names are confusing and inconsistent.
Expected Results:
The names are well thought-out and consistent.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
