            Bug ID: 141102
           Summary: The "outline content visibility" feature deserves a
                    friendlier name.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: j.a.swami at gmail.com

Description:
This excellent new feature deserves a friendlier name. A friendlier name will
be more readily understood and more likely to be said and remembered.

"Outline content visibility" is a large mouthful -- nine syllables (including
one five-syllable word). And three nouns in a row.

Earlier the feature was referred to as a "folding outline." That gives a clear,
memorable picture in two simple words.

And then the option, instead of "Show outline content visibility button," could
be "Show buttons for folding outlines."



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to "Tools --> Options --> Writer --> View
2. Notice "Outline mode" and "Show outline content visibility button."
3.

Actual Results:
"Show outline content visibility button."

Expected Results:
Better: "Show buttons for folding outlines."

In the same dialog box, the bold "Outline mode" could also be replaced by
"Folding Outlines."



Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
