Hi everyone, Thanks Bjoern for uploading the files :) I tried to fix BrightBlue, to me it seems OK now. We still have some masterpages supplied by the community (cc0) and Mirek wanted to let the design list vote on them first, if there's still enough time to integrate them at all:

Hi, actually, the save icon in the top toolbar should be enough, don't you think? It's greyed out if there's nothing to save and makes the indicator superfluous. Here's the mock-up for the tabs: http://ubuntuone.com/17sc4d1D91HWnZUaQdqMSF Regards Alex -- Unsubscribe instructions:

Hi Jan, thanks for your efforts :) Do you think you could make the tabs look like normal gtk+ tabs and let them adapt to the theme? Additionally, I'm wondering whether you could remove the indicator in the status bar that shows whether a document has been changed since the last time it was

Thanks for giving a heads up. Nice to see so much progress :) Since feature freeze is in roughly 3 weeks, some of the upcoming improvements (document themes, templates dialog) won't make it into 3.6, right? If we get a quick response from Jakub, will we be able to replace some old icons?

Nice to have some input from such a big user group. I agree, themes/styles/color, font schemes are really useful. I think the way MS Office displays these is very convenient, but we currently lack the option to style tables. An odf file contains a style.xml file, could that be used to store
