Impressive work ! :-)
I saw that the button to select a range is came back. It's position at
the bottom of the dialog surprised me.

1/ I think that the dialogs should be less high, indeed it is unlikely
to have enough conditions to completely fill the window.
With only one or two conditions we have a large empty space which I
think not very beautiful. And on a 16:10 screen you don't see the bottom
border of the window.
Is it technically possible to make these dialogs resizable ?

2/ When opening dialog "Format > CF > condition" when the current cell
has a CF, the condition for "Cell value is" is still empty (LO
3.7.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: a7efb9b)).

Best regards.

Re: [Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Libreoffice-qa] LO 3.6.2 : about Manage dialog from Conditional Formatting

[pierre-yves samyn]

Hello

A great and beautiful work has been done, thank you for that. 
I hope my poor English will not betray my goal which is trying to improve 
this feature. I would like to continue to discuss it constructively...

My message will be a bit long because it is necessary to detail the steps, 
sorry for that...

In  (comment # 26) Michael says
"The relative reference is expressed consistently with reference to the top 
left hand corner of the range you're currently inside"

I agree with Michael on: "The idea of a special case for when a cell is
selected 
inside the range is (IMHO) not at all intuitive there."

I agree when we use Format> CF> Manage. 

I agree for cells "in the range".

But I do not agree when you use Format> CF> CF and when the current cell 
is the "last" of the range because it is a selection mode very common .

Steps to reproduce (tested with Version 3.6.4.0+ (Build ID: a010c4e)):

1. File> New> Spreadsheet
2. Type a, b, c, d respectively A1, A2, A3, A4
3. Select A4:A1

Note:
- After entering "d"  A5 is selected and a "common" way to select A1:A4 is
the 
mouse starting A4 to A1. Why I said in step 3 "select A4:A1"
- After step 3 A1:A4 is selected and the current cell is A4

4. Format> CF> CF> Add, condition: "formula is" B4 = 1, Apply style: Result

The reference is relative. So we want to test the cell one column to the
right, same row.

* This is the intuitive functionning in current versions*

5. Keep the selected range and redo Format> CF> CF
The formula is now displayed B7 = 1

I think it introduces a non-homogeneously managing of relatives references.
I do not see others dialogs doing this...

Further tests show other problem:

6. Delete (click on Remove)
7. Click Add, condition: "formula is" B4 = 1 Apply style: Result, Ok
8. Keep the selected range and redo Format> CF> CF
The formula was kept and correctly (in my opinion) spread:
Format> CF> Manage displays correctly for A1: A4 Form B1 = 1

This is my expected result, It would be great if we got directly :)

Thank you for reading this far ...
Regards
Pierre-Yves

Re: [Libreoffice-ux-advise] Advice required on auto text resize (Impress)

I think it is a good idea. Perhaps this icon should have two states, one
which indicates that this property is enabled and another when autofit
is in action (text size is actually reduced) with a tooltip saying that
autofit is enabled and what is the actual font size.


And, disabling the aufit feature after having enabled it should give the 
original font size back, of course.
