------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Feb 24 08:41:43 -0800 2006 ------- I was just sent this way out of another discussion on this exact topic (http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?p=128943#128943). Short version: I and quite a few teachers and students have some very practical reasons to have this kind of margin functionality. I teach writing courses at the University of Virginia. Since printing costs recently became prohibitive here, students e-mail me drafts. I make comments and propose changes on the draft and e-mail it back. I get upwards of 50 essays a semester, and I'm one of maybe 30-some teachers teaching this course alone. Notes and changes in the margins are much more intuitive because this is they way we mark hard copies. And with Office 12 on the horizon, and in two years new operating system upgrades, OOo will be a much more attractive alternative --if it's as functional as what the students and teachers are already using. So I for one (and I know a number of other teachers) really want to see this happen. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
