Cool, welcome. Always glad to receive suggestions, and even more people helping to fix things. Since you know some C++, you could even help with that. Don't be afraid, the time most of this C++ has been written was when you were still coding in C++. :)
And in which category of "easy hacks" should I insert them ?
Easy Hacks are usually pretty specific in terms of coding activity. But do file your requests as bugs on bugs.freedesktop.org, it is easier to work through them one-by-one.
* MacOS : cursor visibility : when I type some text, mouse pointer should be hidden (the arrow or the I-beam). It's a standard behaviour on Mac since... 1984 !
Apparently our Mac OSX gui gets very little love. One person has repeatedly asked to remove the pinstripes in the dialogs too. Perhaps this is something to get involved with?
- add a menu "Save a copy as..."
Isn't that the same as the "Export" menu?
==================================================== - today, when you want to insert a spreadsheet or draw object in writer, you have to do : select menu "Insert" > "Object" > "OLE object", then choose a line in a dialog ! It should be much simpler ! most people don't know what "OLE" means.
Wholeheartedly agreed! Sebastian
