[Heiko Tietze]

Present: Denisia, Eyal, Rizal, Heiko
Comments: Jan, Seth, Cor, Ady, Stuart

Tickets/Topics

  * Make Calc text hyperlinks stand out more
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153880
    + keep consistent with themes (Cor)
    + underlining is fine, no option needed (Denisia)
    => do it

  * [UI] Paragraph Heading levels & Text Body
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153735
    + rename the outline level “Text Body” to Body Text, No heading, None
    + Body Text would be fine, and is widely used (Denisia)
    + not logical and somewhat ambiguous with the PS Text Body (Eyal, Heiko)
    + [None] as it used across the app (Seth)
    => let's use "[None]"

  * Indicate slide direction when it is out-of-view
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149362
    + show indicators at what direction the active slide is
    + when focus is in the side pane pressing up/down scrolls (Heiko)
    + there is an info in the statusbar (Denisia)
    + implementing tdf#151170 makes this request obsolete (Heiko)
    + changing standard controls is mostly worsen usability (Heiko)
    + would retreat if the idea does not get support (Eyal)
    => resolve WF

  *  Revert commit of Bug 91415 - Scale Calc's comment indicator with
     zoom level (please, do not)
     + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153106
     + zoom out is supposed to make the indicator less overlapping (Ady)
     + triangles make better use of space than rectangles (Denisia)
     + triangles are visually appealing and the actual issue should
       be addressed differently, eg by hiding the indicators (Stuart)
     + triangles are fine but zoom is questionable (Eyal)
     + suggest to adjust the steps and/or make the indicator smaller
       rather than reverting (Heiko)
     + scaling supports a11y; and Google sheers has the same
       trouble (Denisia)
     + example with less dependency to zoom, accepted (Eyal)
     => go with a compromise with a small scaling factor and a slightly
       smaller indicator

  * Function Suggestion: hotkey contains 'serial' key combinations
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153302
    + would be an option, could help people with a large number of
      shortcuts, shortcuts with a hierarchy makes it easier to
      remember (Eyal)
    + hard to customize, feedback unclear, burden of implementation and
      maintenance, restriction not so simple, eg. ctrl+s followed by ctrl+o
      possible? (Heiko)
    + could be a nice extension (Eyal)
    + alt+mnemonics are sequential (Jan)
    + legitimate request, should remain open (Eyal, Denisia)
    => reopen and comment
