Hi all,

I like both ideas but lean towards Andrews suggestion.

I would like to instead propose a different approach but perhaps from a
coding perspective it would not be an "easy hack."  There was discussion
over the years on the OOo list about changing the background from the dull
gray to something more upbeat.  Perhaps the 'shadow' could be integrated
into a new customization feature that allows the user to change the
background and the shadow.  Unfortunately, I can't recall how difficult this
is... (I seem to recall some large problem in the code that made this
difficult, but it may have been an issue).

Cheers,
Jaron

Although I didn't see it yet, thanks for your work - I'm really
looking forward.

You can find a screenshot on
http://misc.orniz.org/libreoffice/lo-shadow.png book mode is also
handled nicely...

However, I'd like to provide some pointers to the Notes stuff - it's
really worth spending some time digging through some of the
descriptions (in my point-of-view). I think this is better than
pre-process most of the stuff, since I'm unaware of your likings :-)

The notes main wiki page (Notes2 because of the CWS that time):
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2

Here are the links to the detailed designs that had (sometimes) to be
adapted due to technical constraints nobody spent the time for:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2#Status_and_Proposals

And once finished with the default stuff, we have lots of further
ideas: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Notes2_OtherIdeas


Personally, I've already spend over one year with the Notes project
being the UX representative, so I'd like to work with you on that - if
you like :-)

I'll be pleased to :) It'd be nice to have a "UI tasks" on libreoffice
wiki presenting all tasks that are ready on a Design point of view but
that have not yet been implemented.
There is a lot of stuff on the Note2 wiki page, could you give
priorities on various items?

If you are generally interested in working on Usability / Visual
Design topics (of course, from the developer's point-of-view - and we
really need some understanding and support here), feel invited to
subscribe to the Design Team mailing list - some more information can
be found here: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design

Subscribed yesterday :-)
It seems that you've been busy with more "marketting" stuff that UI
design lately to cover the launch of LO, FOSDEM and funraising

Waiting for you priorities & mockups on notes work :-)

Hi All and Sebastien :)

Regarding that patch, I think that what we have in that screenshot is a
definite improvement, but I feel we could do better, and hopefully
without a lot more work.

If you look at the mockup I attached to the bug report, I feel this
looks a lot more modern and professional.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=39920

I feel if instead of having that shadow aligned to the bottom left,
instead it is centred on the page, and we have a slightly larger blur
radius we can make it look a lot better.

Is this just me, or do other think this as well?
