Comments: Jan, Mike
Tickets/Topics
* Inform user about missing temporary folder
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=164340
+ if configuration is possible we should obey - or inform (Jan)
+ just show an infobar (Heiko, Mihai)
+ changing the temp folder crashes the app, at least on Windows
=> do it
* Make saving view settings to (Flat/) ODF files optional
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167149
+ low relevance since view settings depend on author data (Mike)
+ use either File > Properties or Options > Security (Heiko)
+ File > Properties removes the author from meta data and making
the still existing viewsettings obsolete; we could drop it
+ request a toggle at File > Save... (Eyal)
+ strongly against further mutilation of system
dialogs (Heiko, Mihai)
+ usually there is a function to purged personal data
from a document (Mihai)
+ sounds good but requires a clean-up of other places (Heiko)
+ we could use a hash number instead of the clear author name; and
keep the viewsettings (Sahil)
=> comment
* Apply vertical tabs design with large icons to dialogs with
less than 6 tabs
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167084
+ VT are nice even on dialogs with 2 tabs (Sahil, John, Mihai)
+ display are mostly widescreen (Mihai) and there is an option
suggested to switch back to HT (Heiko)
+ icons are an attractor and make the dialogs more usable (Mihai)
+ word wrap might be necessary for l10n (Mihai)
=> do it
