OOo Product Related
- See issues that result from our last usability test: IssueTracker query; before starting to work on any of these tasks, please contact the owner of the respective issue.
- Issues with more than 10 votes (static list 20:18, 10 April 2007 (CEST))
- 'My user experience with OOo' as UX-discussion and it's issues:
- Look&Feel in general needs to be overworked to a more pleasing appearance.
- The 'Styles and Formatting' floating window is not usable intuitively. The differenciation of styles and hard formatting is not obvious for a user; a solution could be the implementation of style themes (customizable).
- Make the fonts list customizable, so that the user only sees his favorite used fonts.
- Offer the functionality of hiding the rulers and calling them temporarily if required.
- Change the standard color palette to a modern look.
- Color management: Setting, changing or exchanging colors /color palettes is not at all intuitively.
- Icons: There is an ongoing project on new icons, have a look at this link http://ui.openoffice.org/VisualDesign/OOo_galaxy.html .
