| 1.1 Investigate Tools/Options layout</H3> |
| <P>The left navigation pane of the tools/options dialog is too narrow |
| to display all topics for all languages properly. CJ is going to look |
| for a better width value.</P> |
| <H3 CLASS="western"><A NAME="ai12"></A>1.2 Collect occurrences of "do |
| not show this again" dialogs</H3> |
| <P>We (nearly) all collected the occurrences of "do not show |
| this again" dialogs. Now Frank will make a summary of it and |
| will publish this collection to <SPAN LANG="en-US">OpenOffice.org.</SPAN></P> |
| <H3 CLASS="western"><A NAME="ai13"></A>1.3 Look for guidelines |
| regarding "do not show this again" dialogs</H3> |
| <P>According to the KDE guidelines, a button "Show all messages |
| again" should be used in the options panel.</P> |
| <P><A HREF="http://developer.kde.org/documentation/standards/kde/style/dialogs/simple.html">http://developer.kde.org/documentation/standards/kde/style/dialogs/simple.html</A></P> |
| <P>However, this does not apply to StarOffice 6.x</P> |
| <H1 CLASS="western"><A NAME="Roundtable"></A>2 Roundtable</H1> |
| <H3 CLASS="western">2.1 Jump to Text Cursor Position</H3> |
| <P>CJ and FL are analyzing the current behavior when and how SO/OO.o |
| scrolls the view to the cursor position. Sometimes this causes an<SPAN LANG="en-US"> |
| annoying </SPAN>effect, e.g. on saving a document the window scrolls |
| back to the text cursor.</P> |
| <H3 CLASS="western"><A NAME="r22"></A>2.2 Save Cursor Position in |
| Writer Document</H3> |
| <P>Some user like that SO/OO.o Writer opens documents at the |
| <SPAN LANG="en-US">position</SPAN>, where the document was last |
| saved. Some other users dislike this feature. Esp. on distributing |
| SO/<SPAN LANG="en-US">OO.o</SPAN> documents to other users this is an |
| unintended quality.</P> |
| <P>Action Item for CJ: Summarize the pros and cons and propose an UI |
| spec for this topic. |
| </P> |
| <UL> |
| <LI><P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm">Read-only documents should always |
| open in the default position |
| </P> |
| <LI><P>Cursor position can/should be stored in the history. This |
| makes the state relative to each SO/<SPAN LANG="en-US">OO.o</SPAN> |
| user. |
| </P> |
| </UL> |
| <H3 CLASS="western">2.3 Last Document Close Behavior</H3> |
| <P>MMP is working on a new definition for the behavior "What |
| should happen if the user closed the last document in SO/OO.o?" |
| Proposal will be posted to <SPAN LANG="en-US">OO.o</SPAN>' Web site, |
| soon.</P> |
| <H3 CLASS="western">2.4 oeone</H3> |
| <P>CJ suggests to take a look at <A HREF="http://www.oeone.com/">http://www.oeone.com/</A></P> |
| <P>They have done a desktop with Linux/Mozilla/XUL technology.</P> |
