+ We need to have new ideas added to the wiki page:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas
+ sooner the better etc. preferably before FOSDEM: today / tomorrow.
here are some ideas : if you think some might be interesting, tell me
and I'll make some specs/ux design
- writer :
when you drag'n'drop several images in a document, all images are
anchored at the same paragraph. If user wants each image to be bellow
the previous, he has to do that manually (think about writing a user
manual with lots of screenshots).
--> Add something to allow user to select the anchor type (or better :
some predefined layout) of the dropped images.
"something" might be a floating/popup panel or a sidebar panel ?
- calc :
indicate sheet protection via something visual in the tab sheets.
Maybe an icon beside the name inside each tab ?
Maybe add an option to visually identify protected cells (dim protected
cells or highlight editable cells)
TBD : how/where to indicate if the whole document is protected ?
- calc :
- allow to easily call python/js/beanshell/.. functions from cell
formula. just do "=MyPythonFunction()". It would allow to easily use
scientific python libraries.
- show a suggestion panel for functions, just bellow the edited cell
(a kind of autocomplete, with infos about function, args...)
- the suggestion panel may allow to create new functions (name and
arguments) and then switch to macro editor ; default code would include
useful comments (some how-to, building blocks, sample codes...)
- the existing function wizard should list functions from all
languages (python/js/beanshell/..). TBD : how to handle documentation of
user-defined macros ?
- macros :
- reorganize dialogs (I made a quick proposal that would need further
polishing) :
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboard/Macros_Dialogs#Proposal_by_Michel_R
(but the iTunes-like selector is not consistent with the current macro
editor)
- replace the macro editor engine with scintilla
(http://www.scintilla.org/) to allow to edit easily other languages
(python/js/beanshell/..) ; writing a scintilla lexer for LOBasic should
not be complicated.
- general:
reorganize "Insert" menu
ex with writer :
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Michelr#Writer_:_new_Insert_menu
(A consequence is that OLE embedding needs to have some visual/UX bugs
corrected : I'll file bugs asap)
- writer/calc :
transpose the current "table design" sidebar panel from impress to
writer and calc.
It would not answer the need for table styles, but it would replace
existing obsolete autoformat dialog.
For calc, it would modify selected cells.
The "table design" panel could be slightly enhanced to handle some more
options (change colors, text options...)
- draw:
when user selects multiple shapes, there is only one visual selection (a
rect with 9 green handles) around all selected objets. The problem is
that user doesn't know exactly which objects are selected.
Change that to have each object selected, with their own blue handles.
Hope this helps,
Michel
