Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Chart in Calc

Hi: Thank you for the link.  Yes, it would be an advantage if the
documentation team works with the video people.  I am the original creator
of the website Tutorial for OpenOffice.org.   I gave the website away and
do not know who has control of the website now.  Anyhow I think it would be
a huge advantage if the documentation team worked with the Tutorials for
OpenOffice.org website.  At a time back when I was involved we were getting
more questions than the User Group at OOo.  When a question was ask that
the tutorials website could not ask, it referred the questioner to the OOo
User Group.  Very ofter we got feedback that they had tried the OOo User
Group and thought it was no good because it did not help them so they came
to us for help.  The tutorials website found out our success was because
how we wrote the tutorials.  The tutorials were written as simple steps.
At this time, even though I am fairly well knowledgeable with OOo and LOo,
I can not understand what the video is showing and I can not understand
what much of the Calc Guide, Chapter 3, Creating Charts and Graphs is
saying.  It would be helpful if instructions was in a simple step by step
format.  For example    1.  open a new spreadsheet   2.  In cell A1 type
June    3.  In cell B1 type the number 5   4.  in cell A2 write  etc
     Highlight (select) cells A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3             Click on
the chart icon (have a picture of the chart icon      There is a better way
to word what I just gave as an example.  The bottom line is that in some
way (maybe just a link to begin with) the documentation group, the video
group, the tutorials website should be "working together" (should be"be
coordinated").

Now that the corporation's self-interest does not seem to be a factor, and
there is two separate forks, it is time for the two forks to get back
together as one group so there is no duplication and waste of physical
energy and capital resources..  I see little or no value in the idea that
the two forks create competition that is good.  There is enough competition
within one group to stimulate creativity.   Now that a lot of things have
happened we might have learned how to handle differences of opinions within
one group.  Differences of opinions is what caused there to be the
tutorials website, the User Group, the video approach, and the document
team.  You might have already demonstrated how to work together with
different opinions by using links to "integrate" the different opinions.
