We're replacing our use of the 'ux-advise' component with a keyword: Component -> LibreOffice Add Keyword: needsUXEval [NinjaEdit] I object the idea as way too many options in a simple quick access. The 'would-be-nice-to-have' request is not a good basis for discussion. For example the various date formats makes no sense as users likely do not switch between American and European style but rather want their locale setting. And if you insert a time with a certain precision you don't change this later. So if you had personalization in mind we better go with presets, user favorites, or previously used. Otherwise the 'more fields' access to the dialog with all options is perfectly working for me. Other opinions?

For Agree here. OTOH, some most used fields in a split button? There are split buttons all over the place, so it's not unique :) (In reply to Cor Nouws from comment #3) > OTOH, some most used fields in a split button? We do have a split button for Insert Fields with page number, date etc. but Jay suggests a second level and that's too much. More Fields... is just a click away. |
