Present: Rafael, Sahil, Cor, Heiko, Hossein Comments: Stuart, Eyal, Ady Tickets/Topics * Add .uno:VRuler button to NB Tabbed/Tabbed Compact cutomize View list + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160694 + use main menu (Stuart) + suggest to split uno:Rulers into VRuler and HRuler and make the two individual settings in tools > options > view as well as a dropdown with both options in the tabbed NB (and the classic UI) (Rafael, Hossein) + If you click on the button, it enable/disable both. But it you choose dropdown, you should be able to select horizontal/vertical separately and check/uncheck them. + vertical ruler are rather a frequently changed option and don't deserve a main spot on the UI (Heiko) => majority for the dropdown solution * Quickfind sidebar: Make the sidebar the default for ctrl+F + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160544 + not replacement but supplement; unfinished and not appealing (Stuart, Eyal) + matter of how the state of the sidebar is preserved after using (Cor) + option to switch makes sense (Rafael, Cor) + unfinished, at least accessibility needs improvements (Rafael) => add the option but leave the current quickfind as default * Allow choosing the page style from the sheets tab + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160920 + simplifying not needed as this is an expert workflow (Stuart) + page style can be changed via status bar > page style dialog (Ady) + but not picked, which is the case in Writer (right click on status bar) (Cor) + Writer lists the available PgS per right click on the SB and allows to pick one; makes sense to add in Calc too (Rafael) + easy hackable (Sahil) + willing to look into this one (Cor) => do it * Right clicking on selected text unselects it if the cursor is on a misspelled word + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98902 + same workflow as LibO in MS Word (Hossein) + suggested selection of the misspelled word is superior (Hossein) + drawback is that we cannot check phrases anymore, or can we? (Heiko) + maybe ctrl + right click for spell checking (Sahil) + bug reporter was unhappy with Impress, which is wrong and WF (Rafael, Hossein) + but rather unhappy about the inconsistency, which is an issue (Sahil) + to remove the selection might be "surprising" to users and we could add some additional overlay color as MSO does (grey for select + red on hover for spellcheck issue) (Hossein) => needsDevAdvice
