That (leaving out the UI part for now) fits with Patrick's suggestion on how to handle the OS/DE/System setting in tdf#155414 comment 7 and sounds reasonable to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115688 --- Comment #15 from crx...@hotmail.com --- (In reply to Michael Weghorn from comment #14) > Any thoughts on whether this would be a good idea and whether that would > make it unnecessary to have the option elsewhere in the UI in addition to > the expert configuration? The purpose of exposing the control in the UI is to give the average user a quick and easy way to turn off animations without doing lots of research in their OS *or* in LibreOffice. Or maybe the OS/DE/System doesn't support it (Linux with Cinnamon or IceWM or XFCE are just a few examples). So I think that is needed, regardless. I think there should be a UI toggle. It is then tied to the LO advanced config setting always. Either one toggles the other, always. If the OS/DE/System level has animations disabled set, LO should just honor that always, automatically, and the UI then shows it set, grays out they selection (disables changing it), and prevents or ignores changes to the LO config. I say this because it is highly unlikely that anyone who has animations disable/reduced set at the OS/DE/system level (if that is even a choice) will ever want to manually override that to turn animations ON in just LO. This maintains having only one LO Config setting, and backwards-compatibility, while also honoring the sometimes-present DE/OS/System-level setting. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115688 Michael Weghorn changed: What|Removed |Added CC||m.wegh...@posteo.de --- Comment #14 from Michael Weghorn --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #13) > *** Bug 155414 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Bug 155414 mentions that there are is an OS/desktop environment setting to disable animations/reduce motions for all major platforms, which is used e.g. by browsers to reduce animation automatically, s. also the MDN doc here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@media/prefers-reduced-motion I think it would be a good idea to also disable the "marching ants" in LibreOffice by default when that setting is enabled in the system, which *might* also make it unnecessary/less necessary to have the existing option in the Accessibility section of the settings (assuming that people who don't want that animation for a11y reasons would switch animations off on the system level). Without yet knowing that such an expert option already existed Bug 155414 comment 2 mentions: > One idea might be to add another option there to reduce motion/animations and > give it three possible values (similar to the Light/Dark theme setting in the > "View" section [NOTE: it's actually in "Application Colors"]: > enable/disable/automatic, where "automatic" (the > default?) would use the value from the OS/desktop environment. And > if that setting is enabled, avoid animations like the one mentioned > here. Now that we already have boolean option "AnimationsEnabled" and this ticket to request making it visible in the UI, I'm wondering what would be the best way to move forward. I think for compatibility reasons, we won't be able to change the existing boolean option to allow more values (so enable/disable/automatic won't work with that one), so 2 possible ways to achieve something like this might be: 1) add a new option that allows 3 values enable/disable/"automatic/System" and deprecate/ignore the old one 2) introduce a new one, "AnimationsEnabledOverrideSystemDefault" or somesuch (defaulting to false), and only if that is set in addition, the value of "AnimationsEnabled" is taken into account, otherwise whether animations are enabled follows the system default. Any thoughts on whether this would be a good idea and whether that would make it unnecessary to have the option elsewhere in the UI in addition to the expert configuration? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

The feature itself supports a11y and disabling it > contradicts the original intention. We are not looking to reverse the default enabled mode as that is better UX in general. Rather the whole point to the Tools -> Options -> Accessibility panel remains to make configuration as painless as possible for those users requiring Assistive Technology support. For those with photosensitivity to visual stimuli, or full PSE, even the ~2Hz "dance" of the border animation can be disabling. So it is _not_ a question of "promoting" to Tools -> Options, but of specifically grouping it with the other a11y AT tools to control the UI. It just makes sense to do so as it _belongs_ there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
