[sw-issues] [Issue 3959] Outline View (aka MS Word)
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3959 --- Additional comments from bill_le...@openoffice.org Mon Aug 31 17:37:18 + 2009 --- After reading the comments just posted by drhatch, I feel that I should chime in. I also have used and am forced to use, MSWord. I have used MSWord's outline view many hundreds of times. I have NEVER opened a document in both the outline view and any other view. I have always switched to the outline view only when it was the most efficient view for what I was doing (which is either creating an outline or more often reordering sections/subsection). Again, I have never had outline view open with normal layout view, web layout view, print layout view, or reading layout view open at the same time. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3959 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Feb 25 14:39:50 + 2008 --- Several posters, sba, wernerny, jrlogic, stevepowell99, and most recently nord73 have tried to emphasize the importance of a real outline format for OO. This really is not just a nice feature. I CANNOT use OO at work for well over 90% of my work because OO is useless at trying to read the Word documents and will not create .doc files in a fashion that MS Word can understand. Now part of this is no doubt a template problem but the experimentation that I have done using MS Word's supplied normal.dot suggests otherwise. I suspect that at just this one site there are at least 3,000 people with occasional MS Word use and close to a thousand that use it almost all day every day. It is a huge disappointment that OO can not handle Word's outline numbering beyond the first level nor provide a true outline display mode. Technical procedures, administrative procedures, technical reports, technical manual, and a host of other documents are all created and edited in outline format with multiple levels of numbering. At this one laboratory there are thousands of EACH of these types of documents---none of which can be edited using OpenOffice! Every electric power plant in the USA all use these same document types. Probably most every major business having detailed technical requirements uses documents of this type and again they are unable to use OO for these documents. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sw-issues] [Issue 25072] Specification: Cross-Refer ences to Headings
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=25072 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Aug 22 17:01:47 + 2007 --- Provide a convenient means to reference any numbered paragraph. I think we already covered this point in the current specification - for all paragraphs, which belongs to a list and have a number on its list level, a direct cross-reference can be inserted. Does the current specification satisfy this part of your proposal? YES IT DOES, THANKS. Allow the writer to include additional text with the paragraph number that will show up where the reference is inserted. What do you exactly mean by include additional text? Should this additional text be part of the reference field? Or should the cross-referencing dialog provide an input field for this additional text, which is simple inserted on performing action Insert chosen reference? An example: Usually direct-cross references to numbered paragraphs will insert a link that displays only the number of the referenced paragraph. What I would like to see is an option to add additional text such as paragraph to link display. This capability should be in the requester that is used to choose the direct-cross reference. Some choices for such additional optional text could be in a drop down list within the requester. Any such additional optional text typed into the requester by the user should probably be added to the drop down list. It would be best if text could be added both before and/or after the actual link text. Also, I would like to see the ability to assign aliases (use optional) for the numbered direct-cross reference links that would display instead of the line/paragraph/page number. Again, the additional optional text could be included with the alias. Internally, in the link information keep a copy of the text associated with the paragraph that is the destination for the link. I don't know, if I understand you correctly. Do you want, that the reference field should ... I'll try to explain what capability I would like to see. My idea for implementation could quite possibly be the worst way to achieve the goal. What I would like if for the program to automagically notify the user if anything about the referenced text changes so that the user can decide if the link has become invalid. In my work I see this problem with astonishing regularity. Someone revises a sentence (that happens to be referenced). The person making the revision has no indication that the text being revised is referenced elsewhere in the document. The reference becomes invalid (because of the revision) and no one is aware that there might even be a problem. Everything else that I proposed is related to invalid (logically as well as physically) link problem. In terms of tools to aid the document writer, just having a way to display that references exist to line/paragraph/page/object. Such a display should give at least the page number where link exists. At least that way the writer could read both the location where the direct-reference link was placed and examine the thing that the link points to in order to ensure that the link is correct. An important point for me is that there should be a tool menu item that checks for physically broken links, that is links that don't point anywhere (because the linked location was deleted). It is NOT enough that the link shows up in the text with something like Reference not found. But even a check for physically broken links would NOT be enough. A means for the writer to conveniently check the referenced and referencing text is important. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sw-issues] [Issue 25072] Specification: Cross-Refer ences to Headings
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=25072 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Aug 16 22:19:41 + 2007 --- Background: Cross referencing is used extensively in a number of different document types in multiple disciplines. Examples include legal documents, medical documents, and the entire class of documents called “Technical Procedures,” among others. The users that are writing and editing these documents have to be able to insert, check, and edit “links” that exist between portions of text (usually a numbered paragraph). For Open Office to be accepted in disciplines where cross referencing is used extensively support must be convenient and solid. To my knowledge, none of the existing word processing programs, certainly not MS Word assist the user in maintaining these links. I believe that an opportunity exist for open source in general and Open Office specifically to once again show the power FOSS. One of the huge problems with direct cross referencing is that as the document is revised to cross referencing may either break or no longer be correct and no warning is provided to the editor. To me, this is unacceptable in today's age of computing power. Proposal: Provide a convenient means to reference any numbered paragraph. Allow the writer to include additional text with the paragraph number that will show up where the reference is inserted. Internally, in the link information keep a copy of the text associated with the paragraph that is the destination for the link. If a change is made to the destination paragraph then prompt the user to confirm that the link is still valid Provide a “remind me later” option Provide a mean for the user to check all of the links. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It is one problem in the MS compatibility area that prevents using OOo where I work. I don't know if it is too late to mention this but when the cross-referencing feature is incorporated it would be of great benefit if the program automatically prompted the use if the user changes any of the text in the referenced paragraph to check to see if the cross-reference is invalidated by the changes. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
