[Evolution] Feature request - clickable links in meeting invite reminders

2017-12-21 Thread Graham
Hi

I've been using evolution for a few years now, so thanks for all the
hard work that goes into it.

One item that would be useful is to be able to click on a link in the
comment area of a meeting invite. Several folks include the url to
their online meeting in the comments rather than the location. When the
reminder pops up it would be great to be able to click on the link
rather than cut and paste it. 

Example screenshot attached.

I suspect you are reading the Help pages for Terminal, not the pages
for Evolution.

That's not entirely the whole story.  The ALT key is used for
accelerators (as is fairly standard in Gnome/Gtk), so holding down the
ALT key is seen as "preparation" for pressing another character to
activate a menu. If you look carefully, pressing the ALT key causes a
number of letters to become underlined - pressing the corresponding
letter will open that menu.  In this case, you want ALT-V to select the
View menu then you can navigate using either the mouse or arrow keys.

This is not abnormal - it is standard Gnome behaviour, and to be honest
if you turn off the menu bar then it is hoped that you know what you
are doing. It may not be intuitive to you, but it's what it is in
Gnome, and I'm sort of struggling to think what would be the
"intuitive" way of re-enabling the menu bar!

This is also covered under "The Evolution main window" in the manual.

That sentence is NOT part of the Evolution manual. 
So whatever you look at, you'll have to ask its authors.
Or provide clear steps where/how to see that sentence.

Thanks.  Exactly what's needed.  Some comments:
   1. The text of the View->Layout is confusing.  The "To Do" bar is
not a bar; it's a pane.  Everything else in the Layout popup is in fact
a bar.
   2. I decided to see what the other possible actions in the View-
>Layout popup do, and foolishly disabled the Menu Bar.  It's not easy
to get it back.  The manual advises me to "Right click in Terminal and
select Show Menubar".  What is this Terminal? —  It is possible to get
the menubar back by holding down the ALT key, which makes the menu bar
visible but not active; when ALT is released the menubar remains
visible for a few seconds and becomes active.  You can then select
View->Layout and re-enable the menu bar.  This is not intuitive;
Evolution is intended to be an application and not a computer game.

[Evolution] Evolution's "To Do" pane

2017-12-21 Thread Jonathan Ryshpan
I have just upgraded my system to Fedora-27, which has caused Evolution
to upgrade to 3.26.3 (3.26.3-1.fc27).  Evolution now has a "To Do"
pane, which I don't want, since I use another program for calendar and
scheduling.

How can I remove the "To Do" pane?

Thanks - jon

This already exists in the dropdown between subject and body?
Ordered list = "Numbered list"
Unordered list = "Bulleted list"

[Evolution] HTML editor

2017-12-21 Thread Gabriele Brosulo
Hi all,
I'm writing from an updated oldstable debian box (Jessie - 8.10) with
Gnome 3.14.1 and Evolution 3.12.9. I'm wondering if it's possible to
improve in some way the Evolution HTML editor, since it's really basic.
What I really need are ordered/unorderd lists.

I tried the "External editor" plugin, but it works only on text mail.

Thanks a lot
