<pre>Description:
Calc makes it more difficult to apply fonts that Excel.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. edit a cell containing text using Courier New
2. In Excel, click in the font name field
Excel result (desirable): the font field is selected in its entirety
Calc result (undesirable): the cursor is inserted where you clicked and you
must drag over the font name, or type control+a
3. Still in Excel, type "Calibri"
4. Still in Excel, use the mouse to click the font size dropdown
Excel result (desirable): the cell changes to Calibri and the font menu drops
down
Calc result (undesirable): as soon as you click on the size dropdown, the font
dropdown reverts to Courier New
Actual Results:
In both cases, Excel's behavior requires less user action and is cleaner.
Expected Results:
Calc should never be harder, less intuitive or buggier than Excel.. If this
isn't near the top of the product spec, then the spec itself is my single
biggest complaint about Calc. Calc users coming from Excel must surely
outnumber Calc users who haven't used Excel by at least a thousand fold.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
