[nl-documentatie] Fwd: [libreoffice-documentation] Embedding images of toolbar button icons within text paragraphs

Allen

Het Engelse documentatieteam voert een discussie over het gebruik van
(voorbeeld)pictogrammen in zinnen in de handleidingen.
Velen zijn er voor om deze weg te laten en wel met de volgende
(belangrijkste) redenen (zie ook originele mail hieronder)

- De pictogrammen zijn met een bepaalde pictogrammenstijl gemaakt. Het is
dus heel waarschijnlijk dat deze afwijkt van de pictogrammenstijl die de
gebruiker gebruikt. Daardoor is het alleen maar moeilijker de pictogram op
de werkbalk te vinden.
- De pictogrammen zijn groter dan de letters op de regel, waardoor er meer
(ongewenste) witruimte tussen de regels ontstaat.

Zo te zien stappen ze dus af van het gebruik van die pictogrammen als
voorbeeld in de handleidingen.

Ik vind wel dat ze een punt hebben en vraag me af of we hun voorbeeld
zullen volgen.

Graag hoor ik jullie mening.

Vriendelijke groet, Kees

All,

First, many apologies if this topic has been discussed before in this
mailing list. I have a suspicion that it may have been, but I could not
locate the thread.

The Calc Guide contains many cases where a small image is included in a
text paragraph, showing the icon that appears on a toolbar button
mentioned in the paragraph. My view is that these images are undesirable
for the following reasons:
I assume that they are included to help the user to identify the
relevant icon on his screen. However, given that the user is able to
customize his / her copy of LO by selecting from one of many icon sets
(via the Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View dialog), I think that in
many cases the images may hinder a user rather than help. We are in
danger of confusing and delaying him / her by showing an image of an
icon that is not displayed on his / her screen.Because these images are
inevitably taller than the normal line of text, they often cause extra
white space to appear within text paragraphs which I think is ugly and
does not improve readability.
I am not convinced that such images embedded in paragraphs provide the
reader with any useful information or context and would prefer not to
use them. Instead I would make sure that every reference to a toolbar
item names the button correctly and consistently. By correctly, I mean
that we use exactly the name that appears in the button’s tooltip when
using the English(US) version of Calc (omitting any mention of shortcut
key sequences).

Would anybody object if these images were to be removed when we produce
the 7.0 Calc Guide?

Regards,

Steve
