[libreoffice-design] StartCenter - filter MRU document thumbnails to show items for just one component

2014-07-27 Thread V Stuart Foote [via Document Foundation Mail Archive]
Folks,

Tabs for each LibreOffice component  on the StartCenter panel  were rejected
during the design process as aesthetically undesirable. 

However, as suggested by Jay Philips  in  fdo#80934 comment 3
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80934#c3   a capability to
filter the displayed most recently used (MRU) document thumbnails to just
one LO component would be a good UI enhancement.

While a mouse over event trigger  on hovering would work well for most
users, would also need to provide keyboard accelerator for AT tools support,
and other users that are are keyboard centric.

fdo#61174 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61174   remains
open for UX enhancements to the recent file list (File -- Recent
Documents), but this GUI enhancement to the StartCenter seems a very
reasonable goal, if its implementation in GTK+ UI  is feasible.

Stuart

 Hi Christoph,

 @ Bj�rn: Do you think it makes sense to circulate this invitiation via
 OpenUsability.org or similar channels? I don't have that much experience
 with that ... so I'd like to hear your recommendation.

 Jan wanted to set-up a planet on OpenUsability.org within the next days. I
 guess it would be best to publish the information this way. Will keep you
 informed about the progress there.

Again a new thing? Isn't a good idea first to establish the group and
afterwords make the different choices?!

And can anyone explain me OpenUsability? Is it a collaberative tool that
Designers and Developer can work together?

 Best,
 Björn

Re: [libreoffice-design] MimeType icons: More time for improvements...

2011-01-23 Thread mail
Hey Paulo,

they look grate :) It's only that I see on Base Icons another Shiny rounded
glow. Which is not on all. On draw you have a linear glow. Impress has no
glow at all, but this awesome outstanding look (My Favorite). Writer has no
glow at all, but you made some nice details on the image.

I think in comparison to the rest is a little bit too much details. But I'm
for letting the details stay and add some little touches (don't ask me
which) so the Icons will have the same amount of details (Yes even in a
smaller version you can add some details to de Base 128version - this shiny
thing.)

 HI all,
 
 I had playing with Christoph's icon set last day, trying to make the 
 256px version for some icons. I made
 icons to Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw and Base. My style is a little 
 different, so I also made [few] changes in the background document to 
 make sure they fit... :)
 
 For decrease the SVG file size (1.5MB), I saved the file in the 
 Compressed Inkscape Format (SVGZ - 116KB). But the wiki uploader don't 
 allow this filetype, so I uploaded the normal SVG file... :/

 I hope you like them. Commentaries and critiques are welcome :). I hope 
 also we can complete all steps said by Berhnard and may release the new 
 icons in LibreOffice 3.3.1. :D
 
 Regards,
 ~Paulo

 Hi all,

 the MimeType icons didn't make it in RC 4, even if Christoph and 
 Thorsten Behrens tried very hard to make it happen.

 Unfortunately the icons are spread among a multitude of places inside 
 the OpenOffice.org source code, so it was impossible to replace all 
 appearances of the icons. Without thorough testing it would have been 
 very likely that there would stay some old icons or appear broken links.

 As such an appearance would have caused a less professional impression 
 than staying with the present icons it has been decided to leave them 
 out of this Release Candidate.

 If there will be another stopper, leading to a fifth RC, this might be 
 reconsidered, but at the moment it is planned to include them in 
 LibreOffice 3.3.1 - giving more importance to the next version that 
 should be released in one or two months...

 For a realistic planning I think we have about two or three weeks to 
 finalize the icons, giving us (probably) enough time to test the 
 improvements we had to postpone because of the short timeframe.

 I included Jaron's and my icon designs in the source file as different 
 layers, so it should contain all the present versions of the icons.

 I want to thank all of you who spent their time in these designs and 
 comments - it is a great experience to have the chance of working 
 really collaboratively in a team!

 Let's finalize the icons, include them in the source and have it 
 tested for LibreOffice 3.3.1. I think we can be really proud of the 
 work we already did and we keep on doing!

 Make it just work, and look great, too!

 Best regards

 Bernhard
