------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 26 06:22:08 -0700 2006 ------- In Writer, the format painter cursor is obscured by the paint pot. For the visually challenged (like me), this is indeed a challenge. I frequently paint one character too many or too few. Solution: Move the paintpot away from the cursor. In Draw, the situation is even worse. The arrow pointer annoyingly toggles to the paint pot. When trying to point to a fine horizontal line, which may be close to other lines, the pointer toggles back and forwards quickly, which is extremely distracting. By experimentation, I've found that it's not even the position of the point of the arrow that enables the painter - it's actually the position of the lowest bit of paint that comes from the pot :) Solution: Maintain the arrow visible at all times. Move the paint pot away from the arrow. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
