Another huge downside of *not* having ruler-snapping for table columns...

...is that without it can very easily happen that you accidentily shift
your table column by a mm left or right just because you clicked in the
area for other editing purposes.

A ruler snap would only lead to the column width being changed if I
really drag the column border FURTHER than any (most) accidental clicks
will be able to reach (given a reasonable ruler snap-width).

2013-08-22 Thread tormen
Hi.

Is there any way to also make the colums of tables *snap* ?

Or is there a way assuring a /straight/ table column border when
changing the widths of cells (most common use case: after /splitting/ a
cell you often want to readjust the width and also often you want it to
match the width of an already existing cell above and/or below.

In case my description was not clear, I am referring to this feature:
http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/9864/how-to-snap-table-borders-to-grid-when-resizing-table-columnrow/

And would hope this BUG could be the solution.

Thanks for any feedback on this!

2013-08-01 Thread Quikee
There are some issues left - when you have a table and move any text
margin slider, the left and right text margin changes after you finish
with dragging. This was working correctly before.

One thing that is not done yet is the ability to get the previous
"snapless" behavior when you hold ALT, as this is possible in other word
processors.

I would also like to show the new margin value while dragging, so you
have even better indication to what value you will change the margins.

2013-07-25 Thread Emir Yasin Sarı
Okay, now I will try to explain why this is so important for LibreOffice
from the point of view of a MS Office switcher. I cannot *comfortably*
suggest LO to MS Office users, especially heavy Word users, because
first thing they will notice is the lack of this feature. And I know
that they will bug about this, because I've had this conversation
already several times.

Imagine, you are writing a nice report, something or whatever, it is not
important. You want your document to look nice with paragraphs nicely
stacked and listed. You have lots of sub-sections on your document, lots
of lists, bullets, numberings etc. The first thing you will want to do
is arrange these sections, so that one reading your document will
understand what is going on there. Eventually you have a ruler, so you
will want to use it first. You were already using this ruler for years
in MS Word, because it allowed you to arrange document elements with
ease and with 0.0 pixel perfection. But when you start to drag the ruler
in Writer, you will notice something odd, ruler is not snapping to grids
in LO. What?! So you won't be able to arrange items with pre-set length
variables, you have to go to Paragraph dialog box, and set each thing
manually, - without any or less visual aid. I don't even mention the
number of extra clicks to do this.

This is probably one of the biggest usability and UX issues LO (OOo,
AOO) ever had. Speaking of novice users, no one will bother to look for
the Paragraph dialog box, instead they will get irritated about this and
probably they will switch back to MS Office, if they have no sense of
FOSS or if they do not have financial concerns.

I hope this will get some attention from the developers' side, because
this is really a serious issue, and it is simply unbelievable to see
this wasn't addressed in 20 years. At least this could be an Easy Hack.
There has been some noise about this on AOO side, it is possible to
check with them also.

I hope there is someone with some free time to hack on this. :)

I rest my case... 
Best regards,
Emir

I totally agree, I raised the issue YEARS ago in OOo, founded (with a
small donation as a "thank you" and convincing a developer) the
implementation of the snap in Koffice, and today, with 4.0 out, I feel
really sad that to set visually the margin at 2cm I can't do with drag
and drop. Basic UI design principles dictate that "gizmos" must be
manipulated in a useful and reasonable way, having the ruler be moved of
1/100 millimetre makes no sense, if I want 1/100 precision I will use
the "indent and spacing", for all the rest I must be able to drag the
ruler.

[Bug 370034]

2013-02-28 Thread Emir Yasin Sarı
I think this is one of the areas that MS Office switchers would find LO
lacking. It is so convenient to be able to set pre-defined indents via
the ruler. If no one opposes, setting importance to "MEDIUM".

PS: for advanced usage you should define the Tabs in a style and apply that
style instead of doing hard-formatting/layouting. Besides that, the default
tabstops are already at fixed intervals (the interval can be set using
Tools|Options -> Textdocument) which is almost equivalent to a grid...

but this is still is a valid request...

Off topic, but what would be nice is that one can setup the tab stops visually,
then right-click for the context menu to appear and choose "Apply changes to

Do you feel this is warrent of a new issue?

Edit the paragraph to suit your needs, define the tabstops, etc. and then launch

I've seen how the most widely used proprietary program works, and seems fine to 
me:
the ruler snap is set to the same visual guidelines of the ruler, that are every
2.5mm (you have 4 in every cm).
In the ruler you have the number, i.e. 3, then a small vertical line (at 3.25
position), a bigger vertical line (at 3.5 position), then a small one again (at
3.75 pos.) and the next number (i.e. 4)
Like:
...3--'--I--'--4--'--I--'--5...
This setup seems very reasonable to me, and needs not custom configurability.
In Draw is configurable but that is a drawing program, so you can have different
and special needs, while for writing letters the above visual snap is all what
you need. So better not bloat the config interface with another parameter to set
(and consider the support issues to those that have accidentally set it 
wrong...).

[Bug 370034] Re: No ruler snapping in Writer

2009-05-03 Thread Rapachooie
Yes I know what you mean about using the format table dialog, but it is
substantially more difficult than simply snapping the alignment arrows
(sorry, I dont know their proper name) on the ruler.

If you have a look as MS office or Abiword, they implement this and its
very useful (one of those useful things that I didnt realise I needed
til I missed

For example, I completed a document recently that had almost as much
table-content as there was word content.  I wanted all of it aligned in
the same way (text in tables and edges etc) and if the aligners snap to
a specific set of points, which are ALWAYS UNIFORM, then its extremely
easy to set alignment of text.

You said you can align the text as you like now, and yes I can too, but
it allows for alignment to ANY increment... this isnt really useful I
think... I dont think anyone would want even small alignment variances,
and as I see it, I cant be sure that all of my text is aligned in this
way; I would instead need to manually enter in a left alignment amount
in the "indents and spacings" tab.

I really think it would be good if some pre-determined ruler snapping
points were implemented (or at least, implemented, and disabled by
default with the option to activate it for people such as myself) as per
ms office and abiword.

Thanks for looking at it.

I'm not certain what you are talking about with respect to the gray
alignment arrows.

For alignment of tables does the format tables dialog not give you
sufficient information to align them properly? It seems to allow me to
set the table exactly where I want it on the page.

Oh, I think I might know what you are talking about now and I think the
reason you think it isn't working is that the grey arrows only appear to
format text and not the tables themselves. To format the tables you have
to use the format table dialog.

[Bug 370034] [NEW] No ruler snapping in Writer

2009-04-30 Thread Rapachooie
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

By default, the grey alignment arrows on the ruler do not "snap" to
their next position: instead, they have complete freedom of movement.

This makes it near-on impossible to ensure that seperated tables in the
same document, are correctly aligned.

I can not find this feature in the options.

This feature is switched on by default in other office applications such
as Abiword and MS Office.

This applies to all versions of open-office I have tried, from 2.4 to
the current release of 3.0.1.

This problem can be replicated easily as it is a standard feature of the
program.

The problem occurs on all tested distributions (including Ubuntu
8.10/9.04, opensuse 11.1, and Fedora 10.

I would like to see at least the option to use snapping ruler increments
in the future.

Thank you
