Hi Mirek,

I will stick with bugzilla for the print preview toolbar and once i
complete my research on the standard and formatting toolbars, i will
present it to ux-advise in a bug report.

I've included in the attachment my first mockup of the toolbars. More
work has been done since this mockup was made, as i'm utilizing OOo's
tracking results and getting feedback from a number of users. I'm
presenting it now to illustrate the direction i'm going in and to get
feedback. In the image, the red arrows above a button indicates that it
will have a drop down menu similar to the new and open buttons. The
black lines indicate that the button will go underneath the button which
has a red arrow above it.

As you may not be familiar with some of the icons in the standard
toolbar that i've added, here is the list following the redo button.

Find & Replace
Spelling & Grammar
Non-printing Characters
-----
Insert Page Break (added an icon)
Insert Image
Gallery
Drawing Toolbar
Table
Hyperlink
Special Character
Chart
Insert Footnote
Insert Field
Comment
-----
Send Feedback (added an icon)

In the formatting toolbar, i've added buttons for decrease font (added
an icon), increase font (added an icon), strike through, shadow,
superscript, and line spacing

Regards,
Jay Philips

    Hi All,

    I'm currently working with the LibO QA team and i have submitted a bug
    report on the revamping of writer's print preview, which can be found at
    < https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80838 >. It includes an
    image mockup, the customized xml file, and links to other bugs that need
    to be fixed in order for it to work correctly. Most of the work is
    simply the rearrangement of icons and adding visible text labels. The
    only difficult part to achieve is the page jumping control being taken
    from the navigator dialog, which meeks has already commented on.

    V Stuart Foote has suggested that a whiteboard should be setup for it
    and when i visited <
    https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Blueprints > it stated that i
    should contact this mailing list for the creation of a new whiteboard.
    So here i am. :)


Well, so far, we've only made whiteboards for larger projects that need
to go through a well-documented design process. If you're just proposing
minor changes to a toolbar, I'd keep it on Bugzilla.


    I am also working on a revamped standard toolbar and would like a
    whiteboard also created for it. I will be using my QA testing
    experience, along with work done by OOo's tracking data and Thibaut
    Brandscheid to come up with the new design.


There a whiteboard would be handy.
We're currently rethinking our design process -- could you read
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Revisiting-our-project-workflow-td4114936.html
and see if you'd be willing to go through the proposed process?
