Present: Michael, Sahil, Isha, Lynn, Cor, Heiko
Comments: Gabor, Eyal, Stuart


Tickets/Topics

 * notes pane: slides switching hotkeys
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163426
   + keyboard navigation matches that of PP (Gabor)
   + missing an alternative to navigate slides from within the notes
     pane (e.g. Ctrl+Pg-Up/Down) (pg-up/down is usually moving to
     the next slide (Cor, Sahil)
   + wouldn't expect UNO commands on standard UI controls and
     get the text editor aka note pane as such (Heiko)
   => comment

 * One-step text highlight using keyboard shortcut, new UNO
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163447
   + apply last highlight color with uno:CharBackColor aka Character
     Highlight Color (Stuart, Heiko)
   + uno:CharBackColor starts the water can method but no color
     is applied to the selection
   => a) fix the water can procedure and b) directly apply the
     highlight color to a selection, if there is one

 * WRITER -- in "manage templates"  window (also named as Templates)
   the template filename should be shown, too
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163136
   + available in the list view mode, quite niche use case (Heiko)
   + WF (Heiko, Stuart, Cor)
   + the supposed way to distinguish between templates is via the Category
   => WF (reopen if more requests come in)

 * Extend the Spotlight feature to highlight list styles, custom list styles
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163262
   + unclear use case (Eyal)
   + what if the same PS is assigned to different lists?`this would
     require to look into the styles inspector (Cor, Heiko)
   => NEEDINFO with recommendation to resolve WF

 * Add Numbering Type selection buttons on the top of the Customize tab
   of the Bullets-Numbering-Dialog
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163259
   + reasonable idea (Stuart)
   + unclear issue (Heiko)
   + renaming could be sufficient; OP uses "Types" (Sahil, Cor, Lynn)
   + "Numbering" could be "Options" (Heiko)
   + "Numbering" is fine when it has a context (Isha)
   => change the label rather than the UI
