--- Comment #19 from Konstantin Kharlamov <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #17) > IMO -> WF. The "New *Document*" button is consistent with all modules. There's no such button though, there's a button with a tooltip "New". > Macros are not documents, and New Document does a correct job. What in the world a "New document" button would do in a macro editor? Assuming there would be such button, that would just sound like a bad naming, where someone thought of a macro as a document, perhaps because the macro IDE is inside the Office suite. > A single > complaint in all the LibreOffice history (were some similar requests ever in > OOo?) does not justify the change. Okay, two things. 1. LO is by far not as popular as MS Office, and the auditory for office suites are mostly non-technical people. Many don't know (or just don't care) that you can go report bug for something that works wrong. And a design flaw in the office suite is not something you'd usually report bug for, because, well, it still works, right? So many people just wouldn't do that. This bug was reported when I was living with my ex-gf who had to use LO because MS Office just wouldn't work on Fedora, and you can't imagine HOW MANY complaints I've heard from her about the LO design being terrible. As a programmer I can distinguish complaints of "habitual" type from legit ones, and I'd say 50% of them were legitimate complaints. How many bugreports she created? Zero. I created a few on her behalf though, but wasn't it for me there would be none at all. 2. Let's not come down to that handwaving reasoning "nobody reported, hence it's untrue". If you are working with a macro in a window wholly dedicated to macro editing, what in the world a button for starting a new Spreadsheet would do there? This is insconsistent. Although, if you really up for some overengineering and want to have such buttons in every possible place, at least please name it accordingly "New Spreadsheet" and not just "New". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
