I know now that up is down and right is left and can easily work with it.  It
helps that I wrote it all down too.  I shutter to think of an non I.T. user
trying to figure it out and that does make it and issue.

The best outcome of all of this would be to get Regina's proposal implemented.

Hi Regina,

I think one of the issues here is naming custom styles with names like
"Landscape".  The "User" expects it to be Landscape because that is what is
says it is.  (I currently have a test doc in Portrait that uses a style called
Landscape.)  He does not realize that it is an arbitrary comment and that the
page orientation is buried in the XML tags.  I surely did not.  The new style
could as well be called the Flaming Zucchini style.  At least if the style was
called the Flaming Zucchini, he know to look inside to see what it does.

When you tell the user that Landscape is not Landscape Orientation but jsut teh
name of the style, he is going to think you are an idiot and go buy M$ Office. 
I have had is happen too many times.  At least the usually buy M$ Office from
me.  But geez, what a waste of money.

That you for helping me make my point.  All those sharp guys did not really
help until Regina took a look.  What they did was give me work arounds, which
were appreciated but not the point of the bug report.  It took Regina to hit
pay dirt.
So I guess five is the magic number.

I do understand what you are saying.  But from a users standpoint, you are tell
him that up is down and down is up.  Portrait is Landscape and Landscape is
Portrait.  This is a nightmare for the user.  Do you expect the user to code
directly in XML so he gets what he wants?  The user expects the "Style" pop up
to be the style of the current page and subsequent pages NOT THE WHOLE STINKING
DOCUMENT.  The Style pop up should create a new set of rules in a new or
previously used style.  Styles themselves are a great way of doing this, but
your flow control of styles is what is in question, not the styles themselves.

You have to look at this from the user's standpoint, not the developers.  This
bug report all started with me having to urgently send a customers a document
with mixed Landscape (first page) and Portrait mixed together and I could not
figure out how in the h*** I lost my ability to use Portrait (he accepted
everything is Landscape, fortunately).

 And I am a YUGE fan of LO and a BS in comptuer engineering and an I.T.
professional to boot AND even I could not figure it out.  And googeling it was
no use either.  (I have since wrote up how to do it from myself.)  How in the
world would you expect a standard user to figure it out?  This is why I can't
get anyone to seriously adopt LO, even thought it is a great piece of software.

I am on Format->page->Page and I see not "AutoUpdate" button, so I am at your
mercy.

To me, what a style is and what is means is in the XML code.  For instance:


   

   
   
   
  

 
   

   


And when you start typing ping on a page, the page tags itself to what style it
is using (pm1 and pm2 in the above).

So first you define (usually on the fly) what styles you are using, then you
tag your missive with what style you are want:

   Page 1 Lanscape
   Page 2 Portrait

(I am a little unclear how pm1 and pm2 got turned into P1 and P2.)

So when the tag "" is encountered, everything
BEYOND that point takes on the properties of the tag.

So I just don't get why the side bar and the pull down do different thing. 
When are you and when are you not altering the the global definition of the
tag, when are you and when are you, making a new tag, and when are you saying
to not modify a tab, but to override one feature with a slight change.

And speaking of RTFM, OpenDocument-v1.2.pdf, pg 214, 5.3.2 Default List Style,
Are you even ALLOWED to change the Default Style.  I presume you what changes
and you create a new style: tm1, pm2, pm3, etc.. And all over the palce in the
spec, it states "...If there is no specified style available, the default style
is applied", so I really do not think you are allows to change the defautls,
but are allowed to create a new customer style.  I could be wrong.

So I actually do understand what "a" style is.  What I am having an issue with
is the flow control of where and how styles are applied.

I seriously think Regina's idea will put an end to all this.  I am actually a
bit in awe over how beautifully she laid it out and her thought process.

Hmm, you've had four of the sharpest QA reviewers working on the project tell
you that you are incorrect. You've received precise examples and explanations
to enable you to perceive where your usage is not in line with function. Yet
you still claim there is a bug... at some point folks will tell you to move on.
Meanwhile the UX facet of why it causes issues is our ongoing dichotomy of
Direct Formatting vs. Style based authoring.

Not a lot to test or change--one commit to move the menu action for the Page...
style dialog to a different section of the Format menu, with a tweak to its
label.  It won't work any differently, but may be less confusing for folks
there ;-)

Meanwhile examine the behavior of the Status bar indicator of the Page style,
it is context menu (i.e. r-mouse click) enabled to allow you to select from the
defined page styles and will display the Name of the page style applied to the
document page with text cursor focus.  It does not give any indication when the
style has been modified from its template defaults. Open attachment 153099, its
view mode should make the page styling apparent.

I think the issue here is that you do not get a good hearing when you report a
bug, so you either give up or start these YUGE long dissertations.
It seem that you get a knee jerk "NOTABUG" response and that is the end of it.

In this bug report, I pointed out several bugs and got back use a different
tool or use the tools provided, but not "that" tool.  Since one tool worked,
but another did not, it was not a bug and I just did not understand.  RTFM.

For instance, the style pop up at the bottom of the page where Landscape is
actually Portrait.   Format->Page->page is different that the side bar tool
when selecting Landscape.  (I can show you XML code as to what is different if
you wish.)  And my constant complaining about no Portrait in the styles
selection.

Another example of getting blown off when reporting a bug:

Calc: print does not print unsaved cell
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125895
Resolved: NOT A BUG

I reopened as an RFE
Print/Export should close cells first
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125932

And then got a decent hearing and the bug was accepted.  Are you sensing a
pattern?

That all being said, I adore Regina's proposal.  I would love to test it, if
you need a tester.

Nope, there is no "Direct Formatting" for Pages--you will always be working
with a style when formatting pages.  And Page styles are one of the styles that
will *always* AutoUpdate (i.e. there is no "Auto Update" checkbox selection on
the Style editor's Organizer tab). You change it anywhere, and it will auto
update (perhaps "autocorrupt") its use anywhere else in the document. Powerful
stuff :-)

Not understanding that seems to be what continues to trip you up...

My understanding is that "format->page" is "suppose" to only affect the current
page and subsequent new pages, not existing pages, even if under the active
page.
Only I can never figure out when it is the current page and when it is global.

--- Comment #2 from John Parker  ---
Bug 120905 was evidently initially raised for LibreOffice Impress. I cannot
comment about any improvements now made to its workflow. The bug mentions
usability studies. With LibreOffice Writer, the three matters I raise are
regressive features. I cannot believe that a usability study was carried out in
Writer after the paragraph right-context menus were redesigned and that the
usability study showed the new arrangement to be best.

This is a tiny part of the overall Writer user interface. But I have to use it
often. It's good to know that the developers faithfully implemented the design.
For me, it's a regressive design.

To be sure, LibreOffice provides a means of customising menus. But don't you
think that for workflows everybody uses, efficient menus should be provided by
default?

The viewBox defines a coordinate system for its content. It allows to exactly
determine the position and and size of its content parts in regard to other
content parts. Because it is pure vector graphic, it does not have any "size".
The author of a marker can use a viewBox as he likes.

 how the size will be

> arow size.

The size is determined by the style of the object, which uses the arrow. The
style has parts 'draw:marker-start="Circle" draw:marker-start-width="1cm"', for
example. That means: Use the marker with name "Circle" and scale it so, that
its width is 1cm. The rectangle given be the viewBox (third and forth value of
it) is scaled with keeping ratio, so that the width of the viewBox is 1cm.

This width is set in the UI in the "Line" dialog for direct formatting or in a
graphic style in tab "Line". The default width, when switching on a marker, is
determined by the thickness of the line. When changing the line width the
marker width is adapted automatically, but you can set a different value
manually. 

 And if there is somewhere an parameter for the size in the code,

> array dialog window.

The drop-down menu for the type of the marker is not a good place for it. But I
can think of a section in the side bar, which provides a simplified UI. Keep in
mind, that you have the option "center" in addition to the width, and that in
ODF you can use an arbitrary value for the width and use arbitrary paths for
the marker, only that it needs to be closed.

The situation is different in OOXML. There you are restricted to a fix set of 6
marker types (incl. none) and a fix set of the three size values: large,
medium, small. See 20.1.10.32 to 20.1.10.34 in the OOXML standard.

Is there an reason that each viewbox is different? how the size will be
defined? from the viewbox (and there size) it's not possible to define the arow
size. And if there is somewhere an parameter for the size in the code, than it
should be not to complicated to add an size drop down menu to the array dialog

--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote  ---
Suggestion essentially is for return Context menu for Paragraphs to a flat
single level menu. Bullets & Numbering in a submenu was intentional redesign
for default UI. Followed by rework of the Bullets & Numbering dialog (bug
120905)

As Context menus are fully customizable--user can reconfigure adding/removing
elements as they prefer. But default configuration is as designed.

IMHO => WF

I think, one problem is, that the items 'Character', 'Paragraph' and 'Bullet
and Numbering…' in that section of the Format menu perform a direct formatting
which has no effect on other parts or the document. But the item 'Page…' there,
does not perform a direct formatting at all and has often a document-wide
effect.

I suggest to rename 'Page…' to 'Edit Page Style' and move it out of the
Character-Paragraph section. Perhaps put it after 'Watermark', that has already
'Columns', which alters the page style too.

Reconsiderung my comment. What we should do is to start from the next
appearance of the search term, let's say with occurrence 6/10, and go to #1
after the last item. Unfortunately we do have neither the number of results
(bug 106383) nor the position yet.

Don't see need for input from UX. The maximum value has to depend not only on
page properties but also the value of header or footer, respectively.

Wouldn't make it higher by default but scale with more text. For example, for
Mathematical > ACOTH the word "number" at the end is cropped with ellipsis. And
there are longer descriptions.

I don't think crop is the right term here. By enlarging the image you don't
expect to crop it. So I tried to arrange and wrap the image into the background
with a non-transparent color on table cells. Still the table remains in the
background meaning I can select the image per click and its white background is
painted over the cell background. Normal text paints over the image and hides
it when the background is set.

for sure the problem with different sizes can be solved when there is an
dropdown menu in the dialog, but as it's not there we need from my point of
view different sizes.

(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #7)
> So what you do is 
> * Rename Rounded Short Arrow to Arrow
Arrow is Arrow (I never change an default), Rounded short arrow was removed,
cause it's to similar to arrow

> * Rename Symmetric Arrow to Arrow Short
I rename symmetric arrow to traingle cause this it the same

> * Rename Small Arrow to Arrow Large
rename cause small arrow is not small

> * Add Arrow Line Large
> * Add Arrow Concave Short
> * Add Arrow Concave Large

Arrow, Arrow Line and Arrow Concave is available in MSO so I suggest to have
for them 3 sizes, normal, short and large. For sure we can also integrate
square 45 and circle in 3 sizes, but as you said it will be to much.

So what you do is 
* Rename Rounded Short Arrow to Arrow
* Rename Symmetric Arrow to Arrow Short
* Rename Small Arrow to Arrow Large
* Add Arrow Line Large
* Add Arrow Concave Short
* Add Arrow Concave Large

Can you give an example when those new arrow styles are needed?

--- Comment #45 from Heiko Tietze  ---
Don't see need for improve UX. Of course, Todd runs into trouble like probably
many others too, but to make this easier goes on cost of functionality. And
throughout all the comments I haven't seen any proposal to enhance, eg. to
introduce a page style "Portrait" in addition to the existing Landscape
(wouldn't work well, IMHO) or to have a dedicated menu entry Insert > Page
Break (Landscape) plus applying the Default page style (with portrait) for
ordinary page breaks.

We appreciate your passion, Todd. But I cannot imaging any developer but Mike
to read >20 comments :-). Those discussions might be better suited for the
mailing lists or our other channels (IRC, Telegram).
