Hello Jean / all, I wrote down a list of tasks people might want to accomplish with Writer/Web. You can find it below.
There are two points I am still working on: CSS and XML. I have to admit I only have a very superficial understanding of the first, and as good as no idea about the second (pretty bad for an aspiring tech writer, since most standards are XML-based). However, Kompozer shows a CSS editor in the main bar, so I was surprised I did not find a similar tool in Writer/Web. Probably I have not looked hard enough. Does anybody know more about CSS in Writer? And about XML, there is an "XML filter settings..." in the Tool menu - however I did not quite manage to understand what it is supposed to do. If someone could shed some light on this, I would really appreciate. Otherwise, I am just going to keep on looking. I have also put together a sketch for the guide structure - more on that in the next email: So, here is the task list: Opening Writer/Web Inserting and formatting text Inserting text hyperlinks Inserting images Mapping images with hyperlinks Previewing in browser Navigating the UI (navigator, bars, menus) Spellcheck Inserting tables Using frames Saving in different formats, exporting to PDF Adding controls and using the Form design Importing database tables, linking database contents to controls Working on the HTML source Using the Web Page Wizard Please feel free to comment, feedback is very well appreciated. Cheers, Diego
