Priority: medium Bug ID: 59284 Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Summary: FORMATTING: Make it easier to apply borders to cells Severity: enhancement Classification: Unclassified OS: All Reporter: emir_s...@msn.com Hardware: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Version: 3.3.0 release Component: Spreadsheet Product: LibreOffice Hello, IMHO, the current cell formatting/borders dialog makes applying borders to cells very hard in general. It looks confusing, outdated, and lacks ease of use (also functionality). Let me explain: - There are no visible-at-first-glance border definitions, user has to chase through a drop-down menu. - The definitions in this menu are confusing, they all look the same, user has to define thickness via setting it manually. - When selected multiple cells with different borders, it is very complicated to set a batch border setting, and this does not respond quite well, for instance in Excel this responds quite well to user behaviour. - Dotted borders look blurry and outdated. So as thick borders. Possible improvements: - Set predefined borders, so user would choose thicknesses at first glance. This includes fixing border widths, so it would not disappear when selecting a cell. I recall there was a bug report about this, I'll add it here. - Hide thickness width selection under a button, so user would not get confused. - Improve border rendering, so it would look stylish (especially dotted ones). - Border preview box could be a little bit bigger, so it would be easier to apply borders by mouse clicks. Feel free to add any suggestions under this thread. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
