Hello,
Back one year ago a Gulfoss blog promised for OOo 3.0 a new UI to
display or change value, add, remove document Custom Properties from
menu File > Properties.
<http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/custom_properties_and_fields>
Here is OOo 3.0.0, this user interface has not changed. Was it
forgotten, or is it delayed ?
The current way to see (not change) such new properties is through menu
Insert > Fields. Not really user friendly.

hi bernard,
you're about the 5th person to ask this on our lists ;)
the ooo core can handle arbitrary number of user-defined properties in
3.0, but we're still stuck with that ugly 4-element dialog.
sadly the new dialog was not ready in time for the UI freeze (which was in
~march iirc), and thus got delayed another half a year to ooo 3.1.
this is all very unfortunate...
regards,
michael
