Important UX Issues

  • ID:????? Cut, Copy & Paste via Context Menu (proposed by:fl)

Issue: Cut, copy and paste are often used via the context menu. OOo does not follow system standard (on Windows) and provides these entries at the bottom of each context menu.
Proposal: Move cut, copy & paste entries to the top of each context menu in OOo.

  • ID:????? Drag & Drop (proposed by:fl)

Issue: Internal and external (system) Drag & Drop (D&D) are to different things. User must plan action before starting D&D because internal D&D ends on application window. External D&D lacks preview during D&D. Furthermore external D&D is hard to start and requires a preselected object before starting D&D action.
Proposal: Unify internal & system D&D. Internal D&D will become external D&D on application border and vice versa.

Impress

For OOo 3.2 the Renaissance team will focus on OOo Impress. Our goal is to reduce the complexity of Impress and make common interactions easier/faster. The following issues and tasks are collected as a pool by the OOo UX community and might be considered when creating the proposal.

Common Tasks in Impress

Important UX Issues

  • 62210 Vertical Scrolling Through Slides (proposed by:fl)

Issue: The vertical scrollbar in Impress does not allow to scoll thru the presentation it just scrolls inside the working area.
Proposal: Scipp blank space below slide and jump to next slide.

  • 72551 Selection Behavior (proposed by:fl)

Issue: Objects lying on a (bigger) selected object could not be selected without deselecting the other obejct first. Furthermore no feedback is given if the mouse is above an object. I.e. a context click inside a group of selected objects withdraws the current selection and the user has no idea why this happens.
Proposal: Give feedback when mouse is over the unselected object and make new selection if clicked. Chart has already impelemented this behavior.
