Tickets/Topics

* Expose "Allow animating images" at the UI  + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143202 * A way to identify animating gif images inside a presentation (or draw) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143201 + stopping animations is possible via Accessibility setting (Aadi) + new position? + not seeing animated gif is a safety/security issue if disabled (Mike) + typically settings would be "show only once", "never", "always", "start/stop on click" + indicator could be a big gray triangle (as known from video players) => comment

* Rename gradient 'border' label to something more meaningful + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143282 + Threshold, Boundary (Sophie) + "Offset" (Heiko) - sounds to me as "shifted somewhere" (Mike) + Border > "Distance to edge" (border is an area, a frame with some    width) (Mike) * Rename gradient 'border' label to something more meaningful + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101731 + Transition, Offset, Midpoint (Sophie, Olivier) + "Start/End extension" (Regina) + don't see a problem with "value" (Mike) + some indicator like a pointing arrow that shows up when hovering over the control in the UI would be helpful (Mike) + tooltips would be definitely helpful (Mike) + border/distance: "Defines the distance to the edge of the area where the gradient       of the transparency starts. The border area itself will take the        transparency from the edges of the gradient." + start/end value: "Percent of transparency at which the gradient starts/ends" => rename border, add tooltips, keep start/end

* Spelling - Correct and Correct All is inappropriate + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143287 + is Change/All better than Correct/All? + bike shedding; correct is clear enough (Stuart) => agreed

* Improve handling of configuring table borders in table properties dialog (to make it work for multiple workflows) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143249 + requirements/user stories first, mockup then + Benjamin wants to show a grid on the table. + Eve wants to configure the border style using potentially different attributes per side. + Eve wants to store a configuration and apply in other documents.

+ mockup at https://design.penpot.app/#/workspace/35358890-e54f-11eb-b623-4c4b7a420f0b/4f34a020-e552-11eb-b623-4c4b7a420f0b?page-id=4f34a021-e552-11eb-b623-4c4b7a420f0b

+ dislike the turn from 'configure a layout and apply that to one or more borders' into 'select where to apply, then do the modification' + multi-selection could be done per ctrl+click on the preview; drawback is    that the attributes can be different, eg visible on/off, and the properties pane should show the actual values + let's consider multiple selection per toggle button -> done in the mockup => share mockup on BZ
