--- Comment #10 from cson...@halmai.hu --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #9) > Curious about Csongor's opinion. Thanks, Heiko. :) Before going into further details, I would like to clarify for the readers like me, who do not read carefully at first, that we are talking about the character styles only, not the paragraph and other styles. Well. There are some bullet points to agree/disagree with. 1. I agree that having the option to build a hierarchy of character styles is a great thing. We should not get rid of it, even if most of the users don't use it. One source of the power of LO is that it is extremely feature-rich. I would like to keep this and not make it "more streamlined" or "simpler" in terms of the feature set, like many "modern" software does. (The easiness of usage, however, is a different thing, I admit.) So let's keep features and based on this, let's figure out how to make it easy to use. 2. I agree that the UI for such complex document structures is not easy. 3. How should we indicate what styles are turned on at the actual character? I re-read my proposal in https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=112852#c9. The illustration after that comment may be not the best but I still think that such a tool could explain well how the rules with higher importance override the rules of lower importance. The strike-through notation in the Developer Tools of the modern browser, I think, does this job very well. In order to make my earlier proposal easier to understand, I created a new illustration with a lot of verbal explanation within the document. Please, check it. Some keywords and highlights from the attachment so that it can be indexed: - applying more character styles (current and desired behaviour) - cascade - description of how the Style Explorer should work - greyed out and strike-through - toggling rules - drag-and-drop reordering of the character styles - "Select Similar", "Select Similar to Left" and "Select Similar to Right" toolbar buttons - "Extend Selection to Neighbourhood", "Extend Selection to Left Neighbourhood" and "Extend Selection to Right Neighbourhood" toolbar buttons -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
