Sending a gentle ping with regards to this enhancement request. Please have a look at it and confirm it. It has been sitting around for already half a year (or 2003 if I take the OpenOffice.org bug entry) :-) @Gerry: sorry you had to wait this long. Especially for your activity in LibreOffice. But, after this time I can confirm this is a horrible implementation. Still can confirm using W8 with LibreOffice 4.1.0.1 RC. I totally agree there is a (big) usability issue here. NEW, but as enhancement (high). Kind regards and thanks for reporting, Joren Thanks a lot Joren for looking into this bug. Caolan mentioned once that the AutoText dialogue is already ported to the .ui format. However, without any usability changes yet (screenshots here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/WidgetLayout#Screenshots). This porting of the .ui makes it much easier to make future changes in this dialog, though. Caolan described it like this: git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core and play around with glade and sw/swriter/ui/autotext.ui I tried a bit myself, but I did not get very far, unfortunately. |
