[Libreoffice-qa] 4.3 Upgrade unusable!

[Florian Reisinger]

Hi,

I got a PM with a rtf file. I will comment on it I will enclose the 
quotes in ######### at the beginning and end
############################

4.  the vital [Ctrl][Sh] > and < for changing font size is not set up in 
any other WP.

############################

Enhancement request (trivial, maybe easyhack)

Cannot find it in list found @ Tools->Customize->Keyboard

############################
I have gone on far too long about these basics.  If you feel some 
sympathy with my assertion of the fundamental importance of these 3 
points I will be happy to contribute other more detailed suggestions; 
otherwise I will have to struggle along with things as they are!
############################

Suggestions always welcome, but better to be discussed in public. I will 
keep it for now on the QA ML, but we might want to switch to the global 
user list
############################

Supporting the above does not exclude other options, but would require 
an easy to use /obvious choice (probably an addition to the menu bar) 
between say 5 (max) preset interfaces/views which cover some well 
thought out favoured compatibility setups, such as Classic, XP, Mac, 
Latest, plus Accessible.

############################

What is the difference between those? Aren't most of them the same. I 
could see Classic, Sidebar, Accessibility, where the latter one is 
invisible, as this is a 3rd party tool

############################

An option to change the colour scheme similar to the provided for the OS 
via Control Panel /Display would be excellent.

############################
Whats wrong with: Tools → Options → LibreOffice(Dev) → Appearence. Feel 
free to change anything here
############################

A few Detailed suggestions:  Some default autocorrect actions could 
usefully be “improved” over Word’s, eg. Suppress this automatic 
capitalisation after a stop as the default, and prevent the automatic 
change of - to – by context (see also in para. 2 above); these are the 
two I find irritating; occasionally I find setting ‘’   and “”  goes 
wrong when not used in the straightforward ways in this document.
############################

Maybe Options → AutoCorrectOptions

###########################

    “Improvements” such as transferring “Page Setup” to the Format menu 
as in LO would really be such ONLY IF they were also retained in the 
“default” location – having some actions accessible by different routes 
should not be considered a failure, but a logical requirement of the 
fallibility of our design process – not to mention user logic!

###########################
Where was it? I only know it from Format --> Page

Finally, we did think about a easier UI for the settings, but we can't 
force anyone to work at this.... (Regarding setup help at start of LibO)

I hope I did cover the most important points and the email doesn't look 
crazy (Lot of format and paste)

Yours,

Florian
