Re: [libreoffice-design] LibreOffice Icons

Hi all, I just perceived my LibreOffice version's icons are actually 26px large (and different from this [1] screenshoot), so I made a 26px version without shadow: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Toolbar-Mimetype-Icons-26px.svg And a version with the same 1px bottom from the other ico

Re: [libreoffice-design] Re: [Libreoffice] [PUSHED] fdo#31251 - Improve default page layout

I like very much the idea... Maybe we could do something more "artistic" but still neutral for the background... trying to avoid the "Glass look" of MS Office, of course. I think we should be absolutely creative on changing the application background! :-D It could be a good "visual" differentia

Replying quickly (Today my Father came to visit me in my current city! :-D): Thank you for the feedback! Perfectly, your suggestion to increase transparency makes the "status info" goal seems clear to this icon. Do you think we could incorporate this on the original icons or the transparency i

Hi Johannes! Yeah, you're right, we're not talking on the same thing. What I mean by kerning is correct pixel anti-alialing artifacts, when a letter becomes blurry and you can use a sharpening filter to sharp the edges (correcting the blurry). But none sharpening filter changes the shape or m

Re: [libreoffice-design] Weak icons

Welcome again. I installed LibreOffice 3.3.1 some time ago. I noticed that all of new file type icons are too much bolded and they aren't smoothed as other file type icons (eg. PDF, BMP etc.). For this reason LibO file type icons are more visible than other. Screenshot with comparision: http://img

Hi Joey, This feedback comes waaay too late, but I think your changes to the type have been awesome improvements in many areas (like the way you made the arch ascender of the second "f" end in a way that is concentric to the tittle of the "i", very nice). Like some others, the way the arm of t

First, as an element by itself, I like the four shadow borders, but I can't help but wonder how it fits in with any plan or vision for the future of the UI. Also, I don't understand how a shadow border is any trickier when zoomed. The scale of the shadow (and line width) don't need to change with

Re: [libreoffice-design] Re: [Libreoffice] [PUSHED] fdo#31251 - Improve default page layout

Hi all, I don't see any reason for having borders or shades at all. A plain background is fine. Keep it simple. I made a quick poll among friends and they all have different ideas, so this would be great if it could be optional. Also, since many like gradient backgrounds, why not make that optiona
