I actually don't find this to be elegant... the section symbol should really
not be part of the number; fundamentally, it is added when referencing, as
opposed to being hidden when not-referencing.

This means that for every insertion of a cross reference you have to perform
several actions (keypresses, mouse clicks) which require a bit of concentration
and aren't just some mnemonic. This is a significant de-motivator for people
using the section symbol for all their references; if this were automated, they
are much more likely to adopt the custom if they approve of it.
But there's another kind of difficulty which I only alluded to in my opening
comment: The "discoverability" of this custom. The people who use section
symbols in LO never do it because LO made them consider doing so; they saw it
in print, and as the result of other typesetting systems or customs, and try to
adopt this use. Part of the motivation for this issue is to expose this custom
to people. Of course, not in a way which makes them take an active decision
("Do you want to add the section symbol Y/N?"), but as an option they can
choose to explore or to ignore.
> OTOH, changing the cross-reference dialog is cumbersome.
Actually, I think it's a bit unwieldy right now anyway, regardless of the
section symbol issue, but I should probably open a separate bug about that. But
of course placing this in the dialog would require a bit of thought.
It also occurred to me that another (less flexible) option is to add this as an
item in the "Insert Reference To" menu. That way it is constrained to be
available only for the appropriate types of reference. The downsides are that
you can't add/remove the section symbol from all relevant references after
having inserted them; and also this:
> I see users requesting other symbols, for example an arrow, or more than one
> character.
That's not impossible, I suppose. However, it is not so likely to 1. happen 2.
happen quickly and 3. require immediate action. After all, it's taken 10 years
of LO for this bug to be filed, and that's for the most (and only?) common
section-reference character. I get how you would not be thrilled about making a
UI change anticipating a potential additional required change further down the
line, but that shouldn't be an argument against making the change at all.
And one can always conceive of further complications, e.g. wanting a
multi-character rather than single-character prefix, wanting style for the
character prefix etc. etc.

I'm not sure what you mean by "using chapter/number".
Anyway, note that we already have some grayed-out elements in the dialog; so
perhaps this one could get grayed-out when irrelevant, if it's placed as a
checkbox.

T>O>W>Fonts work on new documents not templates. What you have to do is to
change Headings in T>O>W>Fonts to Comic Sans, make sure no default template is
defined (File > Templates > Manage Templates - no checkmark on any item) and
then you create a new document.
For some reason, the template fonts are taken into T>O>W>Fonts and if you
Apply/Okay this tab your Comic Sans would be overwritten.

no opinion from my side if this needs improvements ("These settings define the
basic fonts for the predefined templates" sounds wrong to me).

Personally, I dislike dark input canvases (running dark system theme myself) and wouldn't add more UI options. But if we follow Adolfo's suggestion to obey the system theme, an option to revert to bright is desirable to me too. However, I'm not convinced that Basic is special just because the entered text has much more structure. The background color is a simple easy hack in basctl/source/basicide/baside2b.cxx EditorWindow::EditorWindow() -> SetBackground(Wallpaper(GetSettings().GetStyleSettings().GetDialogColor())); (the additional option makes it a bit more tricky. The dark background requires brighter font colors. So in addition we need another preset in Tools > Options > Colors like "LibreOffice Dark" (there are many tickets on this) and now something like "LibreOffice Basic Dark" too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
