In Options-Writer-Compatibility, there are a number of entries with and without "(in current document)" in the option text. This is inconsistent; presumably all the entries are related to current document; and might be made default when relevant button is used. The proposal is to review the need of this text, and either ensure it is present consistently, or removed entirely from all entries.
So your suggestion is to cut off the "(in current document)" from the following options? * Add spacing between paragraphs and tables * Add paragraph and table spacing at tops of pages * Use LibreOffice 4.3 anchoring paint order I guess your suggestion covers also Impress (General > Compatibility) * Add spacing between paragraphs and tables The additional text maybe tells the user that this options affects the current document while the other are relevant on new documents only. But this explanation makes not much sense as printer metrics, fir instance, will be effective when printing.

The frame label is 'Compatibility options for %DOCUMENT-NAME%', which i would presume would mean that all the checkboxes relate to the current document, which means that '(in current document)' is redundant, but if some of the options are app-level settings that are added to newly created documents, then they likely need to be moved/added into a separate frame called 'Options for New Documents'.

Which means also the current document, even if you open a new document, you have to open a Writer document to access Writer options. So I would be in favor of removing the 'current document' string instead, it is meant for the current document, whatever it is new or already existent. Sophie
