[libreoffice-website] Left margin for numbered lists
Hi! It appears that list items within numbered (ol) lists are shifted a bit too much left. You can see the problem here: http://fi.libreoffice.org/lataa/asennusohjeet/macintosh/ I'd expect the numbers to be aligned at the same level as the paragraph text. The problem does not occur with ul lists where the CSS adds some padding for li elements to handle this. Experimenting with Firebug leads me to think that something like this might work as a fix for this problem: .typography ol li { margin-left: 21px; } Harri -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

Hi, :-) On Mon, Jan 17, 2011 at 01:59, Christoph Noack christ...@dogmatux.com wrote: Here is the poll, but I have to admit that I've - to not miss anyone - added all times (even those, I won't be available. So sorry for the many options in advance ... http://www.doodle.com/py7e7fku8p5v9v92 I responded to the poll. IMHO, it would be better if you contact Florian, because you are more likely to get a quick reply from him. If you then give me the codes he sends you, I can host the call if you prefer... It would be great to put up an agenda before our call - so that others can follow our discussion or can add their own thoughts. OK, I can do that when we've fixed a date and time... Thus, it is about: [0] http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/oSwkWTbgl3oUw-EYzldotA?feat=directlink Ah that's a shame... it's one of the most visually attractive of the screenshots, and made the Suite look good... What's actually the problem with this screenshot? Oh, we may add the language specific issue here as well - some of the international teams will have to re-create the screenshots. This is why Michael (was it in his last mail in this thread?) talked about the l10n issues - if possible, we should use only those parts of the screen that are not locale specific (e.g. if graphics in Draw are sufficient to show a certain behavior, then avoid any text). Well, since the NL sites have total freedom in their site design, I don't see too much need to think of them in the English site design... There's no guarantee that they will be wanting to offer the same or similar content, is there? Concerning the size - yes, practically there is a need for showing different sizes. Let's state that a page is good if the width of the picture column is fix (so that scrolling down does not wobble the page content), then we can do: * Crop to the desired part of the screenshot * Resize the screenshot so that it fits to the width * Allow the height to be flexible OK, well let's talk about this during the call... It's worth remembering that this information only has a limited shelf life, and we don't have many people doing actual work in the project, so it might be good to try and keep the production process as simple, without too many complicated rules? ;-) But let's talk and see how to meet as many constraints as possible... Mmh, I'll skip that - we may even ask the local communities to provide that (given some requirements how the screenshots should look like). I bet that the FR community already did something like that. Well the NL communities can deal with the NL pages, and the English site team can deal with the English pages... But the kind of realization doesn't fit into our hierarchically presented menu concept - so I propose a link like See what you get! / See what's in the box! / That's new / Know more about the Features. Thus, the idea is great, but we can do better :-) Technically it fits in fine, and this *is* a content issue, an IA issue, no? So back to the basic idea ... I think there will be a need (also on other pages) to highlight certain things on page. So I'd like to propose some kind of action links in a common form (slight button, ...) that can be used across the page -- Ivan? In addition, is anybody offering to actually produce buttons? For the moment, I don't see any concrete offers... We'll try to get something that pleases everyone, but I must admit that it seems logical to me that the devs should have biggest say in what features to highlight before others in the New Features page...? Mmh, why should developers have the biggest say here? Because we are talking about content on the page - it's a content issue, not a graphic design issue, and I feel it's important to have very open ears towards Michael about this... Although developers invest a lot of effort to work on important stuff, some of this work has almost no end-user related impact on LibreOffice (now). The job of marketing and UX is to help to connect the both (let's call it) worlds of users and development :-) For me, Marketing is Florian and Italo... If they have issues to raise then I'll be happy to listen to them. But this Features page is something very relevant to development, and I want to try and satisfy Michael's priorities and concerns as much as possible. We will, of course, work to come up with a page that is attractively presented and in keeping with the graphic charter, but - apart from that - I don't really see Design playing a big role in the production of this page... But I think we can better talk about things during the confcall ;-) David Nelson -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

Michael, I'm sure all of your hard work won't be wasted, hang in there... I would love to contribute to a brighter future for this project. I am however getting the feeling that the establishment of this project is less of a step forward for community coordination and governance than I was expecting. The consultation process with the website mailing list and website team members when establishing the Group of four was non-existent. In fact I have seen a shout out to the documentation mailing list for new contributors for the website, while there are already members poised to help if consultation and coordination occurs, as we have seen with the Drupal development. I believe that ignoring and belittling this large contributor base is mis-management of the website team by the Steering Committee, and that these active members can be utilised given the right leaders. I sincerely hope that my impression is incorrect, and will remain subscribed to the mailing lists and waiting to see the establishment of the membership committee and some forward thinkers elected to the Board and Engineering Steering Committee. I appreciate all of the public and private support that much of the Drupal team and myself have received, Everyone has done an amazing job. It is now in the SCs hands to allow the website team to work collaboratively and constructively in a grass roots 'open' way, rather than dictating what the website team 'will do' and designating leaders.

Unless you're looking for something obvious, most of the time a thread just lingers around unanswered at all, or the one with the problem writes something like Oh, solved my problem, can be closed and never bothered to state how that person actually solved the problem. Or they are full of useless suggestions that are not even covering the topic. Again, my typical searches may be more challenging than those from the average user, but I just hate all the noise that is in forums. I only use one forum - for a well-seperated hobby. But those forums are dedicated and exceptional in its quality (mainly to the few users it has) - I used another one, but as the product is covered ran out of production, it is idling along. But I never use forums for software to to the lack of quality of the answers therein. If we did provide a user forum, which I believe we should, using a dedicated forum system will provide far more functionality and usability, That's what I've been saying from the very start.. What do others think? Is the forum support option important for trust building and familiarity? What system would we use? The ones that already exist. I absolutely don't see a reason for creating yet another one. I think people agree on that one at least. (and to avoid confusion: No, I don't consider nabble as a forum.

Re: [libreoffice-design] Re: [libreoffice-website] Re: new features page ...
Hi Sophie, Christoph, :-) I think you take some things too far. I fail to see the *need* to remove this beautiful artwork, which is a tribute to LibreOffice that we should be proud to showcase. We're not a corporation, we're an Open Source community project staffed by unpaid volunteers. You don't need to get so *heavy* about things. Plus, you have an approach that can give one the impression that we're all under your orders, and that when you issue instructions then people have to carry out what you say with no right to question or discuss. :-D Lighten up! Get real! ;-) Otherwise you'll find that there will be *no more* contributors wanting to work for the project... Is that really what you want? The thing about the rejection of Windows screenshots was, IMO, completely ridiculous. OO.org is *full* of Windows screenshots. *Many* other project and sites on the Internet use screenshots taken under Windows. In any case, Sophie, I took 250 screenshots, all under Linux, and then uploaded them in 2 sizes, just to humor your wishes. And I will remove the screenshot you want removed, Christoph - just to humor you. But you need adopt a different approach to things, especially when it's someone else's time and work, and not your own. And I do hope that Sophie is not going to get into the habit of jumping in and verbally duffing me up everytime I don't immediately agree with you! :-D I didn't know we had an undeclared fifth team member there to back you up! :-D So, guys, please don't take all the fun out of contributing to this project. ;-) And as for and please upload the source data, so that anybody can jump in... You cheeky rogue, Christoph Noack! a) Most people who contribute artwork to this project do not provide their *source files*. I asked Ivan multiple times to send me his source files for the new theme, and never got any but 2 of them, even though I sent him my complete set of source files produced for Nikash' template! b) If you actually logged into the libreoffice.org site and took a look, you would see that I already uploaded *all* my source files *days* ago! So you are a bit out of order, my friend! :-D Sophie, Christoph, please take a step back, take a deep breath, and try and get things in perspective. ;-) I know you don't really mean badly, but you do somewhat spoil the contributor UX sometimes, with some attitudes that are rather out of place! ;-) Now, I'm not arguing further with you. Respond if you want, but I won't answer you further in this thread for a couple of days, while I get some work done by *clients who pay me*. (And I can tell you they don't do my head in like you guys do!)
