Public bug reported:
The main libreoffice icon seen in the dash is too bland.
I can see that it is attempting to represent in the most minimal way the
overall office suite (by not including text, cells, formulae, etc),
however, subtracting all content from the icon gives it an overly
ascetic air which on quick glance tends to look a little like a broken
image icon.
I suggest that the current icon be replaced with one which contains
elements of all (or atleast the most popular) libreoffice tools. For
example, it could display a combination of all of the following:
- a single letter (to represent Writer)
- a single cell (to represent Calc)
- a bar graph/chart (to represent Impress)
- a simple shape (to represent Draw)
This would allow a quick visual scan to determine what the icon
represents.
