[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 148979] Field context menu should have "Update Field" item
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148979 --- Comment #5 from Miklos Vajna --- Not updating all fields automatically has a few benefits: 1) updating all these fields can take a bit of time for large documents, so doing it on every keypress would be seen as a problem by some users (Writer could be too slow to be usable) 2) we could also have code to track the dependencies of all fields (similar to e.g. what Calc does), not having that code makes the codebase simpler 3) there is not much pressure on us to do such auto-updates in all cases, e.g. Word doesn't update fields even on file load So given that users learned to live with not auto-updating fields, this allows a bit simpler and faster code. That being said, we do auto-update a few fields, e.g. moving a page number field to a next page auto-updates it. On the other hand, users learned that hand-editing a generated ToC is possible, and if we take that away, they can see that as a regression. With these in mind, completely eliminating the explicit field update doesn't sound good. Adding a possibly to explicitly update an individual field makes sense to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 149000] PDF Accessibility: Checker dialog should have a "Print report" button
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149000 --- Comment #3 from Christophe Strobbe --- The critical thing here is figuring out how to make such a report useful. (The same applies to the current UI.) To users who are not accessibility experts, a text version of what the checker displays in its UI is of limited usefulness. (This comment applies to each of the issues in the screenshot uploaded by Heiko Tietze.) In order to be really helpful, we need: 1. Accurate and up-to-date information on how to fix accessibility issues in Libreoffice's online help. "How to Create Accessible LibreOffice files" at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Accessibility/Creating_Accessible_LibreOffice_Files is still based on LibreOffice 5.2 and needs to be checked for completeness, especially for people who want to create documents that meet the accessibility criteria in the European standard EN 301 549. 2. A mechanism to refer users from a specific issue to the appropriate section in the above documentation 2.a. both in the UI 2.b. and in the exported accessibility report. 3. A concept for organizing the accessibility issues in the report: should the issues be listed in the order they occur in the source document, by type of content (images, tables, headings, ...) or by a specific set of accessibility criteria from a standards such as EN 301 549? (Or all of them in specific sections of the report? Or provide a setting that allows the user what type of structure to use?) 4. Above all, the checker should not be limited to a function that is invoked by the PDF export function but one that is available at any moment, so authors can check the accessibility of a document while writing it. (AccessODF, an extension for OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice 3.3, worked in this way. The extension still exists - see http://accessodf.sourceforge.net/ - but became incompatible with OOo and LibO when the side panel was introduced.) I realise that some if the above issues need to be relegated to separate issues. P.S.: Rich text (Microsoft's RTF format) would be a bad choice from an accessibility point of view due to its limited accessibility features. An accessible ODT file would be a much better choice. (AccessODF did not export a report but saved checking results in EARL Schema: https://www.w3.org/TR/EARL10-Schema/ ) P.P.S.: The usefulness of a report is limited by the fact that automated accessibility checks can catch less than a third of all types of accessibility issues. Authors may erroneously think they have solved all accessibility issues when they have addressed those that have been reported by the tool. An exported report would not to point out that this is not the case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 148967] Include a HUD inside the Standard toolbar
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148967 --- Comment #3 from John Mills --- Hi all, If the HUD should function like the search bar in Microsoft Office then I absolutely think it should be there. It is such a useful feature for finding functionality, commands, help etc.as it is both used for finding words etc, (akin to Ctrl F) and these activities. You can see the emphasis placed on this due to it being so prominent in the application header. @Heiko Regarding Mac and Windows users why do you think this would not be wanted? If the HUD would not work like the search bar in MSO then that is a different discussion. In MSO the Search bar is located in the header bar, as this is not used in LibreOffice would there be an opportunity for this to be a potential placement for the future to make better use of available space? I will try and join the Design meeting tomorrow where this will be discussed. Kind regards, john -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Why would adding functionality like this necessitate 'removing a large part of interactions?'
