Minutes
Present: Sahil, Mihai, Heiko
Comments: Dieter, Roman, Mike, Eyal
Tickets/Topics
* Comments ignore spacing above first paragraph and below last paragraph
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163114
+ inconsistent but saving precious space, WF (Dieter)
+ ordinary bug (Eyal)
+ wouldn't expect the top line to adopt spacing, and in fact
it doesn't happen for text boxes as well (Sahil)
+ unclear why the first paragraph must not have spacing (Heiko)
+ alternatively introduce an option for the comment box to have
some margin (Sahil)
+ not so sure this is covered by ODF (Heiko)
+ MSO uses plain text with no styling for comments and we could
do the same (Sahil)
+ comment style was introduced for 24.2 in bug 103064
=> keep ticket, involve Maxim
* Hide "save as" formats you never use
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=164679
+ depends on the user (Eyal)
+ not a big deal, just a few items in the list (Heiko, Sahil)
+ perhaps add a flag, if needed, so users can eventually toggle
to show per extension (Heiko)
=> discuss with ESC
* Writer: Add prepared models of different Table of Contents (ToC)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135388
+ like the idea (Roman)
+ would be orthogonal to our flexibility-focused approach;
we have dedicated paragraph styles and would need to either modify
those on the fly, preventing user modifications, or need to ship
multiple variants (Heiko)
+ document styles would do the trick - but again on cost of
overwritten modifications (Heiko)
+ current workflow is quite complex & we may defer this to
an extension maybe (Sahil)
=> comment
* add an "Edit List Style" command to Text | List context menu,
and Bullets and Numbering dialog should not modify List Styles
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140612
+ mockup attached (Heiko)
+ welcome splitting the current dialog somehow (Mike)
+ B&N dialog has been reworked for bug 120905
+ suggest to resolve WFM, but can live with NEW (Heiko)
=> new, will look into it (Sahil)
