Minutes
Present: Cor, Heiko

Tickets

* Display components of formula without edit + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124102 + WFM (Heiko, Eike, Cor) + alternative is the detective => resolve as WFM

* EDITING: Need Default Keyboard Shortcut for Strike-Through + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64849 + ctrl+K suggested but not working + no need as customization works well; ctrl+k used for hyperlink (Dave) + though some apps provide a shortcut it's not one of the most frequently used features + we are short on good shortcuts, ctrl+k or - are occupied => keep it for customization

* UI: the wording around tools - options - LibreOffice Calc - Formula - Recalculation on File Load is questionable + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124784 + use "ODF spreadsheet" (without "not saved...") and update help (Cor) + "recent" was it years ago + show the recalculation option with an infobar in case of "prompt user" (and make it the default) => go with this potential easyhack

* Inform user when a font style doesn't exist (bold, italic,...) + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100900 + WFM, expert users know their fonts and there arent too many avergae fonts without bold/italic (Heiko) + +1 for the idea (Thomas, Tomaz, Cor, kellnerp) Cor on the fence - later on.. + potential solutions + use icons with subtle decorations (small star at the edge when bold not included) with drawback at customization + add some kind of identification to the icon, eg. a frame + just have a tooltip "this weight is calculated" + icon decoration and tooltip dont work with menus (Format > Text > Bold or Style [F11] > Emphasis) + show an infobar when the file is loaded and fonts are included that neeed math + however.. requires to scan the doc, scan present fonts + and inform user if font is used, or only if font style, not present, is used + and mention font names too... + rather lots of things to do/consider for situations where we must consider that the involved user should have knowledge.. => keep open, favorize infobar to show missing fonts and missing font properties

* PARAGRAPH BORDER: Modification border always adds a new border + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124748 + "Merge with next paragraph" off by default + wouldnt change the default for rare case(s) (Cor) => closed as NAB (Stuart)

* tabs in calc (for sheets) and draw (for layer) style + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124572 + and https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97555 for multi selection + proposed solutions are not perfect (Cor) + respect the system theming (Heiko) => WFM (Cor, Heiko)
