Tickets/Topics
* Keyboard short cut to traverse over open modules
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147219
+ could be a UNO command to access uno:WindowList or
some Alt+W+<number> mnemonic (Heiko)
+ isn't it a question of the OS, eg. alt+^ switches between
windows of the active application in Gnome (Cor)
=> function welcome, comment on ticket
* MASTER DOCUMENT: In navigator 'Insert -> File' should be
'Insert -> Text File' to be more precise
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153666
+ agree with renaming (Dieter)
+ Insert from the popup menu is the same as Insert > Text
from File... and unifying the labels makes sense (Heiko)
+ "Insert > Insert from File" replaces the current text while
Insert > File adds the document into a new section (Cor)
+ rename to "Text Document" to make it clear what type of
document can be loaded (Heiko)
+ could be misunderstood as ASCII text or RTF files (Cor)
=> resolve WF/NAB also to keep the help
* In Writer, there should be 3 types of hyperlinks
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153740
+ somewhat over-engineering (Dieter)
+ if, it should be done for all types (Stephane)
+ easy-hackable (Jim)
+ some options like a) different underlining, b) split the
hyperlink section in the navigator, c) add icons (Heiko)
+ a) not so good, b) could have merits, c) clutters (Eyal)
+ hovering over the entry shows the type (Cor)
=> use case needed to make coding necessary
* Request: Rename "Square" gradient to "Rectangle" gradient in the UI
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154071
+ a) "Square" -> "Rectangle", b) "Quadratic" -> "Quadratic (square)"
+ +1 for a) -0.5 for b) with the explanation in brackets (Heiko)
+ needed for transition (Regina)
+ agree with both (Eyal)
+ we need to make sure that renaming wont affect legacy documents (Cor)
+ "Rectangular" and as a compromise "Square (Quadratic)" using the old
name in brackets (Heiko)
=> do it
* Impress: Improve search for animations
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149015
+ easy-hackable (Caolan)
+ consistency is prime (Eyal, Heiko)
=> do it
* Bring back the transparency option
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154140
+ moving this option into expert settings make sense (Heiko)
+ it's also about accessibility (Andreas)
+ option is not specific to Calc; was probably added to deal with
performance issues with transparency back in the year dot (Cor)
+ if it is a FAQ we should consider to bring it back (Cor)
=> will ask for more info (Cor)
