[Libreoffice] Open bugs listed for academia use on OOo - LibreOffice

2011-03-05 Thread Marc Paré
I had been given a list of open bugs that would be of interest from an 
academic point of view. If any are interested in hunting down either a 
fix or seeing if it is a feature request that is possible to fix, this 
would help LibreOffice gain more traction amongst the Academia set.


You will find a list here:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.documentation.libreoffice.marketing/298

Let me know if you would like to have these put in each as a request to 
Bugzilla to help you out.


Cheers

Marc

The arguments for this is found in the bugzilla and comments: 
http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3959 The bug is still 
open, so I guess it is still being considered?

[Libreoffice] (Feature Request) Shortcuts for Formatting Templates

2011-03-05 Thread Niklas Spille
The issue was first raised in #documentfoundation on irc.freenode.net;
I would like to forward it here, as I am not involved in development
myself but can see how this feature would improve usability:

The original question was
Is there any way to customize the selections for the borders on the toolbar?
I need to easily add a double-underline bottom border to cells, and
the only way I can do it now is by going to the format cell box and
adding the border manually everytime.

I suggested to use formatting templates, which can easily be accessed
by hitting F11, followed by a double-click on the appropriate
template.

This is a slight improvement over formatting each cell on its own but
it could still be done a little faster by...

a) adding keyboard shortcuts for applying formatting templates to the
selected cell(s)
or
b) having the possibility of adding icons/text buttons to the toolbar.

here's my thoughts on these options:

Option a) only needs another entry in the formatting templates'
context menu, keyboard shortcut and interaction with LibreOffice's
or system-wide keyboard shortcut system.

Option b) might be doable using text buttons (maybe with user-defined
text? after all, the user needs to know what the custom button is
for...), icons would be a bit of a challenge: I do not expect
LibreOffice's graphics experts to come up with icons for each and
every cell formatting option or combination of those...

...greetings.
Niklas

I hope someone with more knowledge on this will jump in and clarify,
but I *believe* these precompiled_foo.hxx headers are automatically
generated, and we normally don't modify this by hand.  Also, those
markers are used by a script, and it *may* rely on the time stamp
being present.  So, I'm not sure if the above change is actually
beneficial...

Like I said, I'm not up to date on these precompiled header thingies,
so feel free to jump in and clarify.

 Hello,

 This verry small patch replace BOOL by bool for bRetValue.

Thanks. Pushed to master.

 Can I replace all BOOL from msfilter to bool?

Sure, why not.  But please don't do a blind replacement of all BOOL's
to bool, and at least check each case to make sure that BOOL is used
truly as a boolean value.  Sometimes some people abused the fact that
BOOL was a typedef to char, and used it as an integer, in which case
we should replace it by an integer type not bool.

 Hello,

 I finished the removing of using namespace ::rtl except in binfilters.
 (there were no compilation pb with my Linux env, hope it's the case with
 Windows and Mac envs).
 Even if binfilters is going to be extracted from LO, doesn't it worth to
 purge using namespace ::rtl from it (I think about the people who'll take
 care of this) ?

I personally don't see any value in cleaning up binfilter, but if you
are interested in doing it, I don't see why not.  It won't hurt.

  Personally, I've already spend over one year with the Notes project
  being the UX representative, so I'd like to work with you on that - if
  you like :-)
 
 I'll be pleased to :) It'd be nice to have a UI tasks on libreoffice
 wiki presenting all tasks that are ready on a Design point of view but
 that have not yet been implemented.
 There is a lot of stuff on the Note2 wiki page, could you give
 priorities on various items?

Mmh, hard to say ... because it might also depend on the effort that has
to be spend on your side.

But let's give that a try - it helps me to differentiate between issues,
visual improvements, and feature enhancements.

ISSUES

(Medium) Although invisible, this would be a great fix:
http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85844

(High) The small triangle (note anchor) still looks a bit awkward.
Originally, I tried to come up with a proposal that suits different
kinds of anchors (see also below). Here is a screenshot for the I-shaped
anchor (in the center of the graphic) that should replace the current
triangle.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2_Design_NoteAnchor#Proposal_.22Boxes_.28Note_Anchor_Area.29.22

VISUAL IMPROVEMENTS

(Low) The implementation does not always follow the initial design - for
several reasons. If you look at the screenshots, you may spot some
differences (e.g. dashed line vs. dashed line above normal stroke
line, or 2px width between Notes Sidepane and document vs. requested
1px width). Small things, but they improve the overall impression.

(Medium) Something between issue and visual improvement is to get rid
of the plain background when notes are edited. Originally, we wanted to
keep the gradient for all states.

(Medium) Since you've already invested some time into the nice shadow
thing, the understandability of focus would be greatly enhanced by ... 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2_Design_Visualization_of_Focus#Proposal_.22Increased_Shadow.22

FEATURE ENHANCEMENTS

(High) One of the most important requests for Writer is still to have
proper Notes printing. On the first glance, it might be invisible to the
users, but when printed - it will shine :-)
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2_Design_Printing

(Medium) Today, we only support note anchors representing one
character. We miss the functionality to markup a word, or even a whole
sentence - the note anchor areas. Screenshot below - but there is also
some detailed description on the behavior of such a feature.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2_Design_NoteAnchor#Proposal_.22Boxes_.28Note_Anchor_Area.29.22

(Medium) Another nice thing would be a Notes ruler control that enables
the user to show/hide the Notes:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2_Design_NotesSidePane#Proposal_.22Notes_Ruler_Control.22

(Medium) My personal favorite - which seems unique among the office
suites - is still the notes placeholder. This is a decent placeholder
that enables to just start typing the notes text after having clicked on
it (anchor would be placed at current document text position, the
placeholder has the same size as a freshly created note). Here is a
preview:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/images/8/81/Notes2_2007-09-08_GeneralMockups_View.png

And so on, and so on. Does that help somehow?

[...]
 http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design
 
 Subscribed yesterday :-)
 It seems that you've been busy with more marketting stuff that UI
 design lately to cover the launch of LO, FOSDEM and funraising

Cool, great to have you here ... aehm ... there. And you are right with
your busy assumptions. Especially the funraising seems to be the
hardest part in this project ;-)

 Waiting for you priorities  mockups on notes work :-)

Hehe, thanks a lot! Great to hear that ...

Christoph
