Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 26534
Dialog boxes - OpenOffice.org Applications
Last modified: 2021-08-16 22:57:30 UTC
I feel that the dialog boxes of OpenOffice.org applications are a little bit big. They need a bit of pruning. Almost all of them could be made compact. Eg. Writer:: Format > Numbering /Bullets and Format > Character Dialog boxes They have extra number of tabs, which could assimilated into a single tab-page and thereby save some space and have a compact look.

We are nearing the release of OO.o 2.0, so I don't think this is anything for this release. As far as the UI and dialogs in most of the applications in OO.o suite is concerned, a lot of rework is being going one. Also, I came across a proposal by CJ about adopting new measurements for OO.o 2.0 dialogs, with some screenshots of the proposed dialog. I believe that was wonderful, but i am saddened by the fact that these proposals are not implemented in full. I believe as far as common users is concerned the looks of the UI also makes a difference. A related issue 42227 about the menus may also be seen.
To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements".
