Hellop Astron, About the ui for the stepped lines, I was thinking of adding icons as well.

Re: [Libreoffice-ux-advise] Review asked of "Smooth Lines" dialog
Hello Adolfo and Stefan, thanks for your input. I have reworked the dialog based on your feedback. Stefan, I like your idea to provide several sections. This makes things more clear. However, I'm not certain about the added complexity to the code. Therefore, I'm using a combo box for selecting the line types now. Especially because I'm having the feeling that other smooth line types will be added in the future. Also, the order of the buttons is matching the Gnome HIG now.

Hi Eric, please have a look again at the attachments to my mail in the previous thread.

[Libreoffice-ux-advise] Review asked of "Smooth Lines" dialog
Hello everyone, I'm busy converting the "Smooth Lines" dialog from the chartwizard in Calc to glade. I checked the item's from Caolán's list and from me it looks fine. But a second opinion would be nice :-) I also have a second question. The current dialog is located in chart2/source/controller/dialogs/tp_ChartType.cxx but I didn't succeed to get the dialog loaded. I created a chart2/UI_chart2.mk but no luck. Adding it to sc/uiconfig/scalc/ui/ did work out. Is this OK ?
