[libreoffice-design] MimeTyme icons - Macro
Hi all, as I wasn't able to have any good idea on Draw and Base, I went over to the Macro icon idea I had in mind for some time now: The two gear-wheels of my first proposal are too bold for the larger icons, so I played with syntax highlighted text (directly copied from LibO macro code window). Here is the result: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Macro_icon_proposal.png The gradient on the gear wheels is still too dark (should be the same as the document border), but I have to stop for tonight. I uploaded the source again to the known destination, linked from the Icon wiki page: (I updated the present work status) http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/LibreOffice_Initial_Icons#Present_State_of_the_Icon_Design Best regards Bernhard -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to design+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/design/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

There are three minor points I want to mention concerning your draft: 1. As the heavier items are in the upper area of the symbol it doesn't look very balanced. Even if I don't like to copy the ODF icons, perhaps we should move the rectangle up and the triangle / circle down. 2. I have a minor problem with the rectangle with handles lent from the ODF icons: Draw doesn't use round handles - and a rectangle has eight square handles. Polygons can be drawn with one handle on each corner, so you can create a rectangle with four of them - or a trapezoid, if it fits better with the overall design. 3. I don't know if the white fill inside the triangle doesn't look too harsh - did you try the light yellow? (But this might be less visual, when the icons are switched to the lighter background). As I said - minor points (and probably not shared by everybody here).

Re: Re: [libreoffice-design] Fields UI rework - first impressions
Hi Cédric, Christoph, all,
sorry for the long delay - but things were a bit messy around here:)
First the good news: LibreOffice is running on my machine and it is running
well :)
Now to the tough points: All your comments were very helpful - even though I
think I will still need some time to actually understand and interalize all
the information. To me it all sums up to the following (which is probably also
true for most other tasks around):
We need a complete redesign of the dialogue into probably more than one
dialogue including cutting down the functionallity.
But this definitely is not a task "to easily start with into LibreOffice
Usability". I actually don't even have a clue how we could achieve this within
a project of this size - but I am happy to learn :)
So, Cédric, to me it looks like all we can actually do at the moment is the
following:
Change the dialogue to become wizard. Keep all existing functionallity (no
questions wether some dialogues still make sense) and adding the missing
functionality (which also makes this a rather managable task).
In consequence this would mean that users probably cannot alter the type of a
field after it has once been added to the document other than by deleting it
and adding a new field.
Are you with me in this short analysis? Any objections from anyone?
I also have some organisational questions:
I joined the wiki (http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Bjoern). What other
'channels' should I join?
Do you prefer any tools for mocking? How do you communicate mocks?
Anything else?
So long for today,
Björn

Before I get into feedback mode, I want to say thank you for continuing to work on these icons - it's great to see the progress! Now, let's switch to feedback mode: I'm not sure that the binary background works well as a metaphor. Of course, everything on computers is, in the end, binary, but AFAIK, Base involves no more or less binary than Writer, Calc, Draw ... at least, I hope it's a program people can use without touching binary! Maybe some SQL code could be used instead (CREATE TABLE ... SELECT * FROM)? I also think the 128x128 version adds some unnecessary complexity by making space between the stacked cylinders... maybe add a fourth one instead? To really nitpick, I wonder if the 48x48 icon couldn't have a slightly thicker border for the stack as it looks very thin against the thick outer border of the icon. As for the colors, I wonder if we couldn't find a compromise between colorless and colorful icons by changing the color of the inner border (which is gray in the colorless version). What I mean is: having a gray or white inner border like the colorless icon coupled with the colored gradient fill of the colorful icon? What do you think?

Ah yes reporting without report builder - it is limited unless you can write SQL in which case it becomes...lol...less limited...ok good point. Report builder offers something more then just the added features however - the work flow in Base is horrendous, mostly because the basic work flow in OO.o was horrendous from the stand point of being efficient with designing forms and reports, the same is true for data transfer between Base and Calc. Base is slamming of these large building blocks of functionality from the older StarOffice designs together in a new way, and it didn't work out so well. Report builder was free, to a much larger extent, to do things differently. Anyway that has little to do with an icon design. I'll try the sketching, or send my little idea along in text, either way tonight and don't let it slow you down from you are doing already.

Oh yes, please do this ... and don't mind about the quality, it may even be a pencil sketch. It's about getting the idea :-) Of course, we will have to provide something, so that our recent OOo users feel comfortable. And - like you - I'd like to set the right expectations, since the report functionality is rather limited (if you don't have the extension). And, as I said before, at the end we also have to consider the "uniqueness" of the icon - that is (here) a bit more important than to be totally correct. MSO 2010 for example, switched back to "simple" letters (user research based change, according to MS). Looking forward ...
