Minutes
Present: Nickson, Thomas, Heiko

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113241 + https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/61065/ + hierarchical relation of checkboxes needs to be fixed by a) parent depends on child state b) removal of the parent item c) no hierarchy, ie. all get left aligned + b) and c) is not possible + a) means we keep all unchecked by default but check both children automatically when the parent (Number Recognition) is beign checked; this checkbox needs an indetermined state in case only one of the two is checked and has to be off when both are unchecked (which is a minor difference to the current behavior) (Heiko) + support Cor's patch; it's at least better than now (Thomas) and a) could be step => look into it whether a) is easy to do, otherwise I don't block
 * Options for Number recognition in Writer tables deserve better default

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118574 + better provide sort or filter (Heiko) + pre-sorting easily fails use cases (all) + next to top 10, empty, non-empty we could introduce numeric, alphanumeric => good idea, go for it + go with a dropdown to provide more than 3 +2 predefined items (plus a button "Apply" next to it) (Heiko) + not a fan of hiding options from the user (Thomas) + sounds feasible (Nickson)
 * Show error and other special values at the beginning of the list of automatic filters

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120026 + WF because of unwanted side-effects when a table resizes itself or implement as defined in ODF and likewise for frames (see c8) + agreement with Regina that a state has to be realized as it (Nickson, Thomas) => repositioning of the table after column resize is accepted
 * Table alignment to center does not recenter upon table resizing

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77824 + WF, see c9 (Heiko) + dont see the benefit of unusual values such as 7,14,21 or 3,6,9 (Thomas) + In favor of 'round'/usual metric values as long as possible and useful (Thomas) => keep ticket open and let dev decide what "favorize steps of 1 and 5" means
 * Display metric units on ruler in multiples of 5 when possible

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120006 + Mockup without wizard; yes/no? + rework appreciated, dialog is ugly + wizard is not needed + export to PDF? -> converter saves OD XML files according help => go ahead
 * Document converter

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119919 + comment 6 for an overview + would prefer to get rid of hiding styles (Heiko) + do not hide styles in tree view but grey out (Thomas) => decision postponed
 * Non-hidden children of hidden styles appear in top level of sidebar
