https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135501 --- Comment #26 from John Mills <jmills59@yahoo.com> --- I agree with Thorsten here, I see this as an issue of benefit vs loss. Does changing the default UI benefit LibreOffice in the longer term by bringing new users to the software and hopefully contributors to the project? Yes / No If No stop here If Yes then proceed, but please choose something that would have the maximum benefit to the widest possible audience. I draw attention to one of the latest comments in the forum Thread that Heiko linked to earlier: ###################################################### xxPoLyGLoTxx 1 point ยท 19 hours ago A few things: (1) The speed of LO is significantly better now. It's way snappier than before. (2) There is still some compatibility stuff when saving as docx. When saving as docx and converting that to PDF, I had a terrible issue last night where the spacing of my footnotes was way off. If I saved as ODT, that issue went away. (3) The tabbed layout should be the default. Or like someone else said, have a brief setup wizard on the first run to let people choose. I had no idea it even existed and its WAY more intuitive and similar to MS Office layout. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
