Minutes of the Design Hangout: 2016-Feb-23

[Heiko Tietze]

Present: Thibaut, Heiko, Kendy, Tomaz, Jay

* Sidebar Guidelines
  + no comments so full acceptance
  + AI: Add to HIG now
   
* Notebookbar procedure
  + What/When do we accept additionally NBs in master?
  + How to accept improvements to existing NBs?
  + Make a plan on what we want to provide as factory settings

  + only one UI design for LibreOffice meaning a default icon theme and toolbar
    for better support, maintainance etc. (Thibaut)
  + doesn't work like this for LibO because of crossplattform requirements (Kendy)
  + so ideally we provide a good number of options, the question is what and how (Heiko)
  + have variants to support migration from other office products as well as LibO legacy UX (Kendy)
  + Notebookbar as extension desperately needed (Heiko)
  + encourage "crazy" ideas to show users what's possible
  + have at max two variants of a type of Notebookbar, e.g. simple and advanced contextual sections (Thibaut)
  + what "types" are accepted will be decided in the UX meeting (Heiko)
  + for existing variants write guidelines that must not be broken by updates (Thibaut)
  -> AI: contextual sections: Heiko, tabbed: Jay, single bar: Jay

 * Infobar update
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105566
   + Colors are maroon, orange, and beige but should be rather red, beige, and grey for error, warning, and info
   + proposal at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105829
   + first patch at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/34426
   + color reference https://isabelcastillo.com/error-info-messages-css
   + loading a doc from the Internet, for instance, is worth a warning, no need for type info (Jay)

 * COLOR PICKER: New default color palette
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87538
   + Jay reopened it to create a row with pastel colors
   + Final proposal at the ticket
   + no enough difference between row 3 and 7 (Jay)
   + better mix sorting of luminance/saturation (Tomaz), like in GDoc (Thibaut)
   + will make a proposal (Jay)
