Regina says: "Word 2010 labels the function as 'Internal margin' (dt: 'Innerer Seitenrand'), which is not suited. Selfhtml uses the wording 'padding' (dt: 'Innenabstand') and 'margin' (dt: 'Außenabstand'). 'Spacing to Content (Margin)' could be kept with the small change to not confuse beginners. For wrap it could also be 'Spacing (Margin)'." Following this suggestion the setting for "Indents & Spacing" could be labeled "Spacing (Padding)". But I think we better use clear terms and let the user lern it. So here is the competition. HTML img:vspace - whitespace on top and bottom of an image img:hspace - whitespace on left and right side of an image table:cellpadding - space between the cell wall and the cell content table:cellspacing - space between cells CSS table:padding - space between the border and the content in a table table:border-spacing - sets the distance between the borders of adjacent cells margin - used to generate space around elements padding - used to generate space around content http://www.w3schools.com/Css/css_table.asp http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_border-spacing.asp http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_margin.asp http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_padding.asp Word 2010 / WPS/Kingsoft Writer Table: Cell Margins (inside box), Cell Spacing (between cells), Distance from surrounding text (around table) Object Wrapping: Distance from text (around object) Calligra Words Object Wrapping: Shape and text is separated (around object) WordPerfect X7 Table: Inside margins in cell (inside box) Calligra Words: Indent/Spacing section with "Line Spacing" and "Paragraph Space" (No need to follow what others do, in my opinion. CSS is the mother of all.) Gabor Kelemen committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=8d0acf8763a154fac6597cb37d023c0412710c7a tdf#103275 Rename 'Spacing to Content' to 'Padding' It will be available in 6.0.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback. I’m happy with the new non-convoluted term =) Thanks for fixing the issue. |
