------- Additional comments from nekoh...@openoffice.org Wed Dec 31 15:53:02 +0000 2008 ------- I am a designer and UI reviewer, and I find the default set of gradients in OpenOffice to be ugly. They have that '95 look, as if they were meant as a benchmark for colors (squared radial pink to green, anyone?). They generally lack subtlety and a more "professional" look, and, as such, discourage the user from using them at all. They are really not suitable for charts or flowchart boxes. I discovered recently that I can edit ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/standard.sog and thus create a nice array of slick gradients. The goal of this bug report is to ask this: if I provided a new, more carefully crafted Tango-style set of gradients, would this be accepted upstream? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
