OpenOffice Impress is the official name of the program. In fact if you take a look at Sun's openoffice.org website you will see that the suite is comprised of writer, calc, impress, draw and base.
http://why.openoffice.org/why_great.html IMO the fact that we use .desktop files to rename these apps (to simplify/abstract the name) in the application menu, should not stretch into the actual program. I think consistency is important too, but I feel it should work the other way around. The programs should be called what its developers named it. I know my opinion will probably be unpopular among usability professionals but I think branding the suite the way it was intended (writer, calc, impress, draw) is the way to go. The functionality that the application provides already shows up in the tooltip. I don't think we should expect the OOo to change the actual program names just to be consistent with what we chose to name these apps in the gnome application menu. My vote is to either keep it as is, or rename the menu entries to the original OOo names. -- firefox asks to open .ppt files in OpenOffice Presentaton, but the program executed is titled "OpenOffice Impress" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344260 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
