Re: [libreoffice-design] Re: Calc Survey

Hi Heiko and team, *Additional question recommendation*: Q: In what capacity do you use Calc? (Check all that apply) 1. Education/school 2. Professional 3. Personal (e.g. home office, accounting) Wording here is VERY rough, but I thought use cases could be valuable. (e.g. 82% of Calc users use it

Hi everyone, Great idea! I prefer to use shorter tags such as [UX] and [VI] as opposed to full words. Otherwise the subject of the email may get cut off, especially since all our emails are automatically tagged with the list at the beginning ex: [libreoffice-design][UX]. As for the specific tag

Hi Paulo, Christoph, Wow... I can't believe its been so long. This thread took quite the nap. I also like "Style 1" best, top right corner, and 14x11. Although the orange seems a bit loud. I guess that is acceptable since it is likely the most appropriate color from our arsenal. It seems fine
