------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Mar 29 01:57:02 -0800 2006 ------- The whole issue of "reveal codes" has been thoroughly discussed in list "users@openoffice.org" and, I'm sure, in other lists over and over again. Please, let's stop it! What is the matter with us all? I have yet to see someone say: "I am quite satisfied with the way OOo allows the users to control the the formating of documents; nothing should be changed!" There is a general consensus for the development of better (more powerful and easier to use) tools for the the control of the formatting of documents (with or without styles). E.g. «(...)Still, a list containing any formatting at the current cursor position (or applied throughout a selected area or selected areas) would not be unwelcome.(...)» Even though people say: «(...) there are no codes to reveal.», the fact is that formatting codes _can_ be created and shown! The famous Ian Laurenson's "Reveal Codes macro" proves it, and the same proof is obtained by doing Format->Paragraph, for instance! So, my request/suggestion to the people that (knows how to) write code to OOo is: “please, develop a tool that «provides a viewing/editing mode that shows ALL the "hidden" formatting info of a OOo document and in a way that could be changed by a power user.» [jmcruz, Issue 50501] “ And, as a final request: ***** Please, change the summary of this issue to "Show formatting info" to please the folks that say: «How many times must it be said ... there are no codes to reveal.» ***** Many thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
