(F) There is no way to opt out (G) It's pretty inconsistent.. It's only valid this font (or number of fonts) I personally see this as the undesired solution for the issue. And I'm some point I start even starting using Mike argument. LibreOffice isn't MSO :P Other options would be (A) Set it to Arial; but think this is a no go (B) Make it an save option; convert font for capability (C) Put some setting in options if this should happen or not. I even consider it being disabled by default (out of principle) And I make a configuration screen where you can set specifics (or setup wizard).. Same said about auto-correct. All sorts settings (features) are assumed to be 'good' for everyone.. while I having my doubts. There is always reasonable sized group hit by the so called feature. And assumptions made. Which creates undesired effects. Instead of arbitrary making assumptions about way to many user groups, maybe wise to simply ask. Instead of throwing all sorts of things on them without explicit consent. You can still fill in the 'defaults' which should be good for average.. But at least people being aware those settings being around (and can be changed) Nudge + consent is better compared to patronizing we know what's good for you, IMHO. People don't want to be told .. the want to choose. And you get rid of those 'arbitrary' choice and the angry mob at losers side. NotePad++ and UltraEdit have all sorts of templates to target specific groups. LibreOffice Writer Normal Assistance/Support, Minimum support, Advanced (manual configuration).. -- 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
