What are we aiming for

from Issue 33737 : Input fields are currently edited using a dialog box that pops up when clicking the field. It would be more intuitive, faster and practical to edit these fields in-place instead of through a dialog. Ideally they should also allow for direct formatting as well.

This enhancement would also increase compatibility and interoperability with MS Word. Text fields in Word forms are imported as input fields.

The road ahead

Once in-place editing of textfields is integrated in the master, we would need to consider:

  • integration of input fields form fields
  • representation of fields in ODF
  • changes to the user interface
  • allowing for attributed (formatted) text in fields
  • ... more follow-up work
