------- Additional comments from eva...@openoffice.org Mon Dec 15 23:15:13 +0000 2008 ------- @tommy27 Just because criticism is harsh doesn't mean it's undeserved. I consider OO Writer substantially inferior to Word mostly because of this issue, and an editor of last resort basically entirely because of it. (This includes preferring Word running in Wine.) I simply find the margins that you have to deal with rather distracting, and prefer to edit without them. (Disclaimer: I haven't tried OO3. I tried to get it set up on my work computer, but failed without root. It's possible it has the option to collapse top and bottom margins (like Word's page view has had for years), and this would go a long way towards alleviating my complaint. There are still a couple other outstanding issues that matter to me though.) @hamlet9000 That said, I agree with especially zerohalo: insults are not appropriate. Many of the OO developers are putting some of their spare time to help produce this for free; without them, it wouldn't be even where it is. They don't owe you anything, and you are out of place with your insults. I can name a couple dozen features I consider critical for a word processor to have that OO Writer has and Wordpad doesn't, and only one the other way, so that argument doesn't particularly stand up. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
