I will leave taxonomy to the experts and limit myself to express feature requests. <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED DUPLICATE - Allow drop caps to display as raised initial effect" href="show_bug.cgi?id=103997">Bug 103997</a> got me thinking. My original request was for a simple small change to the existing UI, but if <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED DUPLICATE - Allow drop caps to display as raised initial effect" href="show_bug.cgi?id=103997">bug 103997</a> is to be marked as duplicate, and I agree it is for reasons I wrote on that thread, then the request in this bug has to be fleshed out. My 2 cents below. USE CASE: there are many different creative ways to draw attention to the start of a paragraph. Users will eventually think of new ways and a good implementation of currently popular ways of making the start of a paragraph stand out will allow for future development (3D printing anyone?). IMPLEMENTATION: (a) flexible definition of what is the first part of the paragraph (b) incremental implementation of stand-out features (a) DEFINITION OF THE FIRST PART OF THE PARAGRAPH - letter: first number of letters (1->n) - word: first number of words (1->n) (b) STAND-OUT FEATURES - STYLE - HEIGHT, as the number of lines (my original request was just to allow for HEIGHT=1) - SPACING, as three choice: punch below, punch above, white space above (this will cover the requests in <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED DUPLICATE - Allow drop caps to display as raised initial effect" href="show_bug.cgi?id=103997">bug 103997</a>) Most important: leave this open to creative ideas of other ways to make the beginning of a paragraph stand out. A graphic image? A lookup into a sequence of graphic images based on the letter of the alphabet with which the paragraph starts?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
