[Libreoffice-qa] gtk3 builds for QA
Hi All, As the gtk3 build of LO is constantly getting improved, it would be good to have gtk3 builds of LO available for QA to regularly test against. I recently installed Fedora in a VM and the gtk3 build of LO comes with it and there was a bug in it, but unfortunately i didnt have a gtk3 master build to see if the bug had already been fixed.

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] right-click menu of images in Writer: submenu of Wrap has only one entry

"Prefer graphical widgets in favor of controls that require the input of an exact value (e.g. an image’s transparency with discrete steps via sliders)." I'm not sure how appropriate it is in these circumstances, but one of the things that drives me up the wall with guis is how you're forced to use sliders/mice so much. A graphical widget should have a button that converts it into an input window - eg I sometimes want to enter colours as pantones. Most people are visual. Most people prefer sliders. Just remember that some of us don't ... :-) That's why I'm a WordPerfect fan - it's so easy to use an input dialog that plonks things *exactly* where you want them rather than dragging and hoping you've dropped it in the right place :-) Though we will be introducing more graphical widgets, they will be accompanied by regular input fields that users can view/input the exact value. E.g. the transparency slider and spinbox field in the area content panel.

[Libreoffice-qa] Improving the OS Field
Hi All, I'd like to suggest we improve the selection of OSes in the OS listbox, by getting rid of the ones we dont build for or have 0 bugs for (e.g. AIX, HP-UX) or have virtually no open bugs for (e.g. Solaris, OpenBSD), as we have an 'Others' entry that should be sufficient for that. I also think we should add ones that have unique bugs that dont happen in different versions. Here are some of the ones i think should be added. Windows XP - quite a few bugs exclusive to this Windows Vista - quite a few bugs exclusive to this Windows 10 - would assume new bugs are being found exclusive to this that dont affect 7 or 8 Windows (64-bit) - quite a lot of LO x64 build only bugs Linux (64-bit) - i've seen a number of these that dont affect the 32-bit build Steve would better know if we needed to break up the 'Mac OS X (All)' entry into additional entries. With this improved OS field, i believe we can retire the Hardware field.

Maybe it doesn't work on my systems because I use a Portuguese keyboard? If so then it's probably a bug? Works for me, so i guess its the portuguese keyboard. Some keyboard shortcuts have different shortcuts based on the language UI of LO that the user is using, so do file a bug for this and suggest an alternative shortcut that can work on your keyboard and CC me.
