Bug ID: 150375 Summary: Indicate non-printing line numbers with faint gray Product: LibreOffice Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: eyalr...@gmx.com When a user enables line numbering, they are somewhat interested in the relative number of each line on the page/within the document. Often, they don't want the final printed document to have a number on every line, but when working on the document, the balance probably tilts more towards in the benefit of more line numbers being visible (but not intrusively so). This is somewhat similar to table cell boundaries: Many of them usually don't get printed as lines, but are useful to help the user while editing the document. I therefore suggest that when displaying line numbers, at the set frequency we will see a fully-realized number (typically black-color; current default is once every 5 lines); but on every line we'll have a faint/semi-transparent number, which doesn't get printed. The user will have the option to make the faint per-line numbers disappear, either through the line numbering dialog, or by toggling non-printing marks, or both. They will be on by default to help avoid the confusion described in issue 150237. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
