*Dear LibreOffice Design Team,*

I’m Zain Tahir, a LibreOffice user and developer currently working on Ubuntu. I’d like to give some constructive feedback regarding the *Borders* feature in LibreOffice Writer and Calc.

Right now, the border interface feels outdated and unintuitive:

 *

   The *presets and previews don’t accurately reflect the applied output.*

 *

   The *UI is cluttered*, and the settings don’t offer real-time feedback.

 *

   *Basic border operations (like applying different styles to
   different sides)* require more steps than they should.

 *

   In general, the *workflow feels disconnected from modern UI standards.*

I genuinely appreciate the work the team puts in — and I’m only sharing this because I see potential for massive improvement. A streamlined, modernized border editor (with live preview and more intuitive layout) would greatly boost productivity and usability.

Thanks for your time and your continued efforts in making LibreOffice better.

Best regards,
*Zain Tahir*
