[libreoffice-design] Minutes from the UX/design meeting 2022-Oct-06

Present: Eyal, Heiko
Comments: Timur, Miklos, Stuart, Regina, Cor

Tickets/Topics

 * Should be able to permanently delete comments with track changes enabled
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115645
   + deletion is contrary track changes (Timur)
   + rather accept deletion (Miklos)
   + add "Remove All Deleted Comments" (Timur, Cor)
     + placed in the context menu and visible only when TC is on
   => go for it

 * In Draw the Ctrl+M shortcut should create a New Page as in Impress
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151108
   + use a different shortcut for new slides in Impress
   + ctrl+alt+M (Stuart, Regina, Cor)
   + ctrl+alt+N would fit the action better (Eyal, Heiko)
   + mnemonic is alt+L/P+N (Stuart)
     + ctrl+shift+M (Stuart) - ctrl+alt+N opens the template manager
   => change the shortcut for new slide/page

 * Print Dialog: list of available paper size is unsorted list (no logic at all)
   and has duplicate A4 paper size
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151136
   + alphabetical sorting likely fails the task (Heiko, Eyal)
   + sorting comes from the printer target, see FAX with A0..6 spread across the
     options (Heiko), sorting might be possible anyway
   + U.S. uses Ledger, Tabloid, Legal, Letter with many variants, see
     https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size#North_American_paper_sizes
   + if we sort it has to be manually as well to not mix various US and European
     sizes; which would be just another sorting making, => NOB (Heiko)
   + would sort by one dimension and separate the different systems (Eyal)
   + "Microsoft XPS Document Writer" reports duplicates
     -> confirmed, and it would be good to remove those
   => comment on the ticket, needsDevEval

 * Font (family) selection UI elements should allow searching by substring
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151119
   + type "Foo" and find all *Foo* fonts rather than Foo* as of today
   + use case "Libre Gothic", "Noto Gothic", "Gothic MS", "My Gotic Font"
   + suggestion applies primarily to the dialog (Eyal)
     + typing into thje font name field would filter the list below
   + sounds like a reasonable enhancement (Cor, Heiko)
   + doing the same for dropdown controls is desirable (Eyal) but means
     to change the behavior completely since currently we just autocomplete
     and have to filter otherwise; remember other tickets that suggest
     this (Heiko)
   => do it
