Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Impress Guide_Introducing Impress
Hi all, One doubt again. It is said in Libreoffice Styleguide, Make sure that the names of user interface items (menus, icons, options, dialog boxes, and windows) match what appears in the application. Does it mean that the GUI elements (name of windows, menus, dialog, or any word appear on the GUI) should be formatted using OOomenupath character style? I see GUI elements formatted with Ooomenupath in procedures but not when mentioned in other parts. Just making sure...

As the question still exists as to whether they should be updated using xp theme, I haven't touched those images. The only work left for me was to update one image which Chad had marked to be changed, and I have done that. I am assuming that the documents in drafts except the first one are yet to be proofread/reviewed as I cannot see any comments on them. Shall I do that?

[libreoffice-documentation] possible mistake in the getting started guide
Hi @all, as you might know, the German team is in the process of translating the user guides. While doing this, we found the following text in the getting started guide, in the Calc chapter: Using selection lists Selection lists are available only for text, and are limited to using only text that has already been entered in the same column. To use a selection list, select a blank cell and press Ctrl+D. A drop-down list appears of any cell in the same column that either has at least one text character or whose format is defined as Text. Click on the entry you require. With Version 3.3.3, the key combination is Ctrl+Shift+D for the mentioned selection list. With 3.4.1 neither combination (Ctrl+D and Ctrl+Shift+D) has any effect at all. You might want to check with your versions as well and maybe correct the documentation - if not done already.

Oh, I forgot something: With 3.4.1: Go to Tools Options LibreOffice Calc compatibility Change the settings for the shortcuts from default to OpenOffice.org compatible. Then Ctrl+D will work. With the default-setting, the key combination has no effect. This might be worth mentioning within the user guides.

Hi, the new combination is alt+arrowdown, at least for the German UI. For me that seems not userfriendly (2 hands required), additionally it's not mentioned in German LOCALHELP. The LOCALHELP tex for alt+arrowdown, alt+arrowup seems to be wrong, it should decrease increase row height due to Help text, but it does not. alt+arrowleft / alt+arrowright dercrease / increase column width as I read in LOCALHELP. Can someone check, maybe file a bug report (and add me to CC, if he wants)?

I've opened a bug report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39137 But, after opening the bugreport I read another mail from Nino, where he says, that after changing to the OpenOffice.org compatible mode (you'll find this under tools options LibO Calc compatibility) the key combination with Ctrl+D works for the selection list. In a blog post, Kohei Yoshida, the developer who implemented this feature, mentioned a few more key bindings that change with this setting: Delete Backspace Ctrl+D Ctrl+Shift+D see: http://kohei.us/2010/10/15/key-binding-compatibility-options-take-2/ But he also mentions, that this list might be growing over time.
