Hello,
THis discussion should really be moved to discuss or social.
However, I
see that some of you really like WP so I thought that the following
might encourage you to accept OOo as it is and go on to other more
important things.
Hi Joe,
While you might bringup a point that this 'seems' to be dragging
along, I
disagree that we should have to move on. A list like this is to
discuss the
usage of the software, and discuss improvements.
No, this list is for helping users with problems. The discuss list or
the social list is the place for ongoing discussions about various
points.
Will these ideas be brought forth to the developmental stage, I
hopeso, but
unless it is deemed important enough, it might not make it.
Discussion does not usually lead to development unless a request for
enhancement (RFE) or bug report is submitted to the appropriate area.
Your argument of accepting it because of prices of WP, well, we
could just
accept Microsoft Office and accept the prices. Bad argument.
I dont think the point was to do with price as such. I think the
point was to show you that you are not forced to use OpenOffice.org,
but could purchase WP at any time if you so please.
I personally has used styles, but styles do not always apply in all
cases.
So, we must use the bold, italics, etc... So, this is where reveal
codes
would come in handy.
As for being stuck with the features as is, lets bring this up to
the people
that do the development. Reveal codes is a valuable tool, and many
people
have grown to like it.
I believe that instead of saying that it is not possible because of
the way
OO is structured, that we talk to the programmers to work out a
solution.
I think we all agree that being able to see the structure of applied
formatting in some way (not RC directly) is a good thing. If you want
specifically RC then I suggest people use the macro that was
developed for such users.
Regards
Jonathon
