Tickets/Topic

* Tight integration + mkara wants to discuss what we can do to make it working + state is that a temporary address is used with extensions frozen at the time when the project was done + implemented API is not fully compatible yet (Muhammet) + several options on the table; fall-back solution is to run a script that updates the temp site every day but ideally we get it running on the actual extension site; will take care of this (Muhammet) + Hard feature freeze was Nov 16, UI freeze is Dec 14 + will abandon the patch to make it exerimental (Heiko) => update next design meeting, Dec/03

* Escape chart mode after Insert > Chart + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137891 + cannot reproduce, escape closes the module and allows to   delete (Heiko, Muhammet) + different behaviour between Windows and Linux (7.0.2) (Sascha) - but not on 7.2 (Heiko) + pressing escape multiple times is weird (Sascha) + only once required on Windows but two or three times on Linux + Chart Area is selected on Linux but not on Windows + sidebar is blank with no chart element selected + sidebar is not reliably refreshed => WFM, escaping the chart mode per ESC is possible with master (and on Windows)

* Loss of nominated Chart data series Labels when target cells hidden or  grouped & collapsed + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134059 => assigned and patch has been submitted

* Unwanted scroll to bottom when changing language of document (CTRL+A Language change) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137603 + remember current position on select all (instead of going    to the end) (Heiko) + MS Word does left/up to first character, right/down to the end; LibreOffice always goes to the end, actually SelectAll changes the cursor position + API might be affected when we change the behavior (Muhammet) + also an option to change the view immediately with SelectAll (Sascha) + same situation for sentence/paragraph selection (currently the cursor    goes to the end) + we may also keep the view position after SelectAll and any operation (Muhammet) + would dislike the separation of cursor position and view (Heiko) + only manually scrolling, eg. SelectAll + scroll to p10, should be kept => ideally keep the cursor position, otherwise scroll to cursor

* Anchor decoration in Toggle formatting marks on mode (to so they exact  location of the anchor) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138351 + change the anchor color/symbol? + using a blueish symbol sounds like a plan (Sascha) + might be worth to make it depended to the icon theme since not all users want the icon to be obtrusive (Heiko) => recommend color to icon designers
