Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LO 3.5 - Can't see page margins in Writer

Hallo Regina ,

I agree, the current grid  could be replaced by a "editable grid" who 
can been adapted to  the multiple columns boundaries and to place also 
"horizontal" boundaries.
Very good idea !
Ideal for our workflow

New systems and   idea's has advantages, but please let us, users, 
choose the system who fit best to our workflows. This is not very hard 
to do, 3 buttons in the appearance,
- no boundarys >> now use the editabel grid
- the new look ( corner boundarys)
-the old boundarys

Thanks for the interrest
