    Present: Kompi, Heiko

Tickets

* Rename tabbed layout to notebookbar
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125009
=> ask on the marketing ML for input
==> feedback "Tabbed Notebookbar" given, UX input done

* Insert image not in a new paragraph but in the current position or as character
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45778
+ anchor as character and alignment "Base line at top" to comply with MS Word
+ q in ask.libreoffice.org
+ drawback of current alignment on paragraph is that more than one image adds on top of the other (Franklin)
+ see also https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87720
+ most word processors anchor as character
+ RFE: introduce an option how to anchor be default
+ provide user-defined defaults at tools > option (Csongor)
+ clutters options a bit (Franklin)
+ we could do it as expert option (Heiko)
+ alternatively keep the last used settings
+ might not work as you modify properties subsequently and we would have to store
properties at any time when changed
=> changing the default anchoring to 'as character' sounds good
=> providing agreement by ESC, ask the community and introduce the option when there is a split
+ Twitter: 31% To Page, 39% To Paragraph, 7% To Character,
23% As Character (some comments "it depends")
+ result: no clear picture
+ ESC: agreement, though better w/o additional option
+ better not touch and keep to paragraph (Kompi)
+ better "to character" for wrapping and since mouse positioning is broken,
suggest for empty paragraph "to paragraph" and when inside text "to character" (Regina)
=> since users and use cases differ the best solution is to have an option (and maybe more for 87728)

* Save icon breaks icon customization
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98193
+ accept the drawback (Andreas, Heiko)
+ possible solutions: a) combine two/n icons in one with a propriatary format,
b) split the UNO command into uno:SAVEEMPTY and uno:SAVEMODIFIED, c1) draw the decoration
programmatically, c2) combine/overlay two icons
+ never change icons (Kompi)
=> WF, becuase no good solution and inappropriate effort

* Provide an option to hide the animation effect
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124477
+ alternatively change the tree with details on animation into a table
but this might exceed the sidebar width
+ option is rarely needed as most users do not have that many animations per slide
+ simple solution is an option "[x] Show animation type" (default = on)
=> go with the change

* Option to turn off autocomplete text in quick find
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124774
+ WF or needsDevAdvice
+ like the idea as it is often confusing (Kompi)
=> needsDevAdvice with recommendation to WF if there is no central place to switch it off

* Page settings missing a few paper sizes
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122696
+ adding too many options spams the list
+ not a big deal (Cor, Kompi), not convinced with 14 addiitonal options (Heiko)
+ even for DIN we have only A3-A6
+ it's easy to enter the paper dimension manually
=> ask the OP for a smaller selection with <5 items, eg. RA4, RA5

* Formula result has different alignment than regular values
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124860
+ switch on "Number Recognition"?
=> discussion ongoing at BZ (ticket might be a WFM now, @Cor)
=> postpone / discuss on BZ
