Present: Maria, Heiko
Comments: Sascha, Stuart

General discussion

* Welcome to the design team, Maria!
   + What we do, how we work, why it is fun

Tickets/Topic

 * Make cell border dropdown from Sidebar available for Toolbar
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141774
   + not much advantage better focus on bug 11360 (Heiko)
   + agree, also Calc Sidebar picker is "buggy" mixing toggle
     and add as standard option (Sascha)
   + quite some spacing between items (Heiko)
   + not needed because because too many options, would
     be nice to have user-defined configurations (Maria)
   => recommend to not do but keep the ticket

 * UI: Tab of visible sheet looks the same as other selected tabs
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=132470
   + revert and make active sheet label bold?
   + changing the color for selected sheet is unappealing as we
     support sheet colors; suggest black borders for all selected
     sheets and bold text + black borders for active sheet (Sascha)
     + border as in frame?
   => make font bold again

 * LO Writer: in dialog for insertion of cross-reference, allow
   user to filter for the number of the target
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141777
   + currently we filter per *<foo>* and the request is to do
     <foo>*
   + no big deal, user can always specify by longer text (Sascha)
   + makes sense only for numbers (Heiko)
   => comment and keep ticket

 * LO colors theme: dark mode: use darker document background color
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142172
   + too much contrast with white on full black (Stuart)
   + rather use a darker application background color and a slightly
     lighter document background that has a good contrast with
     white text (Sascha)
   => WF

 * EDITING: Request ability to configure text export used when pasting
   plain text
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74247
   + optional clipboard delimiter like space makes pasting a pain
     but how about a "special copy" dialog?
     + unclear how this affect pasting, ie. spaces as delimiter
       could always evoke the text import dialog
   + how about a makro that reads all entries out of a table and list
     them down in plain text? to rare use case to clutter the UI (Sascha)
   => WF for the in-program solution; realize this per extension
