dialog without even reading it. It would be better to present a solution
that would make the user have to choose an UI.
And that is exactly the 'in your face' dialog many would prefer to avoid.
The point is, how we set the behaviour for ToTD? If we set it as a one time
only dialog at startup/first start (and of course per module as you state in
#c33), this will not be a 'in your face' disturbance. The problem with ToTD is
when one leave it (enable as the default), there's is possibility for user at
some point to disable it completely. So, we lose the chance for displaying it
in another untouched module.
For example a new user ignore first ToTD message about chosing an UI and then
just open Writer in some days, and keep the ToTD shows up everytime he use
Writer but also the ToTD message will change to another topic. When he choose
to disable it in the third day, then we would make him/her unaware about UI
choice when opening a Calc sheet (and he/she was unaware for Writer also).
With that reason, first dialog UI has a benefit over ToTD.
My suggestion is to make the UI chooser dialog available at startup, other
- Make the dialog re-accessible every time (to replace View > User Interface
menu).
- Improve the ToTD content about UI choice with may be an animated image. This
would benefit ToTD for other topic too
