I want to draw our attention to the first bug which was on the agenda in yesterday's design meeting:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158588 I would say that bug is misnamed. It should be called: "LibreOffice unexpectedly and strangely modifies an ODT file without they user having done anything, and embedding unnecessary fonts nobody asked it to." IMHO it's several non-trivial issues rolled into one: * LO's "contract" with the user as an ODT editor * Where does the UI regarding font embedding choices belong? * Does LO "know" about the actual use of different languages in a document? I've commented on the bug myself but would encourage more of us to have another look at it. Eyal PS - Sorry for missing the meeting :-( On 20/12/2023 23:00, Heiko Tietze wrote:
Present: Sahil, Rafael, John, Heiko Comments: Dieter, Stuart Tickets/Topics * Redesign font embedding options in sfx2/uiconfig/ui/documentfontspage.ui + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158588 + improve help (Dieter, bug 130185) + dummy text with no embedded font = 28k, with all options on = 22000k with "only used" 927k, with all but limited to latin = 1800k + disable CTL & CJK depending on options and + check by default and disable the "Only used fonts" unless the first option "Embed fonts" is activated (Heiko) + if the document contains and CTL/CJK font it would be pointless to exclude them when saving used fonts only; and the other option makes not much sense alone (Rafael) + font scripts options needs a dev check => do it
* FORMCONTROLS Enhancement: Fill Cell with Text Box in Calc + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158273 + check/enable anchor to cell (resize with cell) and fit to cell size by default (Heiko) + changing this makes users needy and they may ask for better chart positioning, for example; how about a dedicated command to achieve the goal (Rafael) + could also be done per macro (Sahil) + goal was here to insert/manipulate many form controls; the workflow with copy/paste is tedious as cursor down or enter does not behave like at normal cells; which could be changed (Heiko) => comment * Incorrectly export number 0 form calc to PDF + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158533 + option to show/include zero is on by default and one has to disable it intentionally + same behavior on Excel + dependency to some archived PDF format is unclear => ask the ESC * New sidebar deck for comments + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106316 + splitter to expand the comments margin (Jim) + comments in margin is sufficient for ordinary users (John) + vertical space in margin is not enough for academia; management is missing, eg. to find unresolved comments (Rafael) + sidebar has limited vertical space + but allows the list being unsynchronized ie. many comments on one single page overlapping each other + requirements: add filter by status, eg. resolved no urgent need for the procrastination option "hide temporarily" + mockup design: take the Onlyoffice example https://bug-attachments.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=191371; sort is missing; referenced text should be visible in the sidebar pane + enhancements: predefined responses? might be useful for some (Rafael), but should be done resp. the list filled by users (Sahil) + replace the comments in margin or amends it (John) => improve the mockup and ask the community in a blog post
