Re: [libreoffice-website] Merry Christmas! - My present for you: test is gone, site went live :-)
Good morning everyone, and merry Christmas! Christian, first of all, thanks for taking my notes into account. The rest follows. 2010.12.24 14:52, Christian Lohmaier rašė: On Fri, Dec 24, 2010 at 11:29 AM, Rimas Kudelisr...@akl.lt wrote: 2010.12.24 02:40, Christian Lohmaier rašė: 1) Please rename Lithuanian from Lietuviškai to Lietuvių kalba. This wording fits better in the particular context. Done. (the list of downloads is regenerated every 30 minutes, so might not be visible immediately I still don't see this change :( 2) The two drop-downs are of different height for me (Win7, Firefox 3.6, Lithuanian base language, see http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/9219/dropdowns.png ). I presume this is because of non-western scripts used in certainoption elements (Telugu in particular). That's unfortunate resizing done by firefox. No such resizing done in chromium for example http://frupic.frubar.net/17206 I think it's likely because different fonts are being used for different scripts, at least in Firefox. Specifying height and line-height of 25px and vertical-align: middle for select elements solves the problem. I don't really like this change, as it would maybe adjust the size for western-script ones, but for those who cause the resize it will be broken. It has been mentioned on the german list already http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss@de.libreoffice.org/msg01442.html The big problem is that other fonts have a different baseline, thus when you used fixed height, the text in the other checkboxes is pushed halfway out of the box. Can't repro. I just cycled through all the language – some names were shown a bit offset to the buttom, but they all fitted inside the borders well. I wouldn't call that broken. Furthermore, if this is indeed broken, the obvious fix is to increase the height and line-height to some bigger value (e.g. 30px). The drop-downs would look bigger, but still remain of the same size and aligned well. The different baselines of the fonts is also what makes a middle alignment as you mentioned impossible. They make baseline alignment impossible, which is why I suggested middle. 5) I don't quite like the fact that the font in the drop-downs is bolded. But maybe it's just me. Why don't you like it? It's highly subjective, but to me it just looks a bit rough...

The work is of course not done, eye-candy is missing, and a revised theme is in the works. Merry Christmas to everyone, hope you family are all safe and can enjoy the holidays. My congratulations to everyone, and huge thanks to those who were involved! A few notes regarding the download page: 1) Please rename Lithuanian from Lietuviškai to Lietuvių kalba. This wording fits better in the particular context. 2) The two drop-downs are of different height for me (Win7, Firefox 3.6, Lithuanian base language, see http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/9219/dropdowns.png ). I presume this is because of non-western scripts used in certain option elements (Telugu in particular). Specifying height and line-height of 25px and vertical-align: middle for select elements solves the problem. 3) The order of languages has been mentioned in the other thread, but I'd like to bring it up again. Sorting by language name would be fine, if it worked well, but it doesn't. If you just open the list and look at it, you will immediately notice that about half non-latin languages are at the top of the list, and the other half is at the buttom. This just doesn't look polished or sane, so I'd like to suggest sorting by the ISO code instead (and yes I know it was already suggested before). The only alternative I see is to list all language names in English, but I'm not sure we want it. 4) Again about the drop-down: I suggest removing the parentheses around the iso code. It's probably not very commonly used, but textareas usually support typing some text to focus an element. Naturally, I just want to type lt instead of (lt) to focus Lithuanian. 5) I don't quite like the fact that the font in the drop-downs is bolded. But maybe it's just me. That's all for now. Except this: my warm season greetings for everyone!

Oh, I thought it was clear that the general view is too much text, not visually appealing enough, also it was made pretty clear that people don't like the side-navigation as it is now (too narrow to fit longer texts for example) and other minor things.

People will not try clicking on the image if they just want to get LibreOffice. And the NavBar entry will probably be not prominent enough for them. The button (from the TDF site?) could be positioned below the image without doing any harm to the rest of the page...
