Description: Hi. I guess I stirred up some bad mood last time I mentioned this, but, still, I would want to mention this one more time, 'cause the world is now different from last time, so perhaps you have a different opinion now. There are some enhancements LibreOffice could have. Besides creating documents, images, presentation, spreadsheets and so on, more and more, people, offices, businesses, etc., need to create WEBPAGES. Why not add a webpage creator to the suite, that would permit to create, edit, alter and interact with the webpages anytime? This way, we wouldn't have to search for a free good webpage creator/editor to complete our office work, because LibreOffice would include one! Up to this day, I still see this as one of the most necessary inclusions LibreOffice could make. Why not add a calculator with ALL the functions as a complement to the spreadsheet? There could be some automatic insertion of the forms and schemes in diagrams, like MSOffice has. There could be some certified-as-legal-and-free fonts added to each new version of the suite. And, perhaps the easiest one of all: when you select some text, and then use the font selection menu to attribute a new font to the selected text, the selected text could assume the font whose name the mouse is hovering, for the moments on which it's there. I guess you call it LIVE PREVIEW, and you already mentioned it before, but it never got done... What do you think about all of this? No animosity, please... Actual Results: Guys, I guess that, since I'm talking about an enhancement, this field didn't have to be filled... Expected Results: Nor this one... Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:
Another enhancement: add sheet 1, sheet 2, etc. to EVERY program, just like you have in the spreadsheet.
Hi and thanks for your suggestions. For the future, please have in mind: * All people that are reading here, verifying and commenting on bugs and preparing bugs for developers are doing this in their free time. Therefore please be as precise and descriptive as possible and avoid buzzword-ish short descriptions. * Bugzilla is a tool prepared for developers. Therefore we work with one issue per bug report. A list of different bugs or feature requests isn't the right way to make issues attractive for other people who should implement these issues. (In reply to jlbraga from comment #0) > more and more, people, offices, businesses, etc., need to create WEBPAGES. > Why not add a webpage creator to the suite, that would permit to create, > edit, alter and interact with the webpages anytime? This idea was discarded and wont ever be implemented because most web pages are written with a framework or online. The days of "Frontpage" and similar programs are gone. Other bug reports with similar requests exist but I haven't found it now. > Why not add a calculator with ALL the functions as a complement to the > spreadsheet? Nice idea but is this really necessary as every operating system has it's calculators and Calc sheets already can be used as calculator. > There could be some automatic insertion of the forms and schemes in > diagrams, like MSOffice has. Please write a new bug report with deeper description of what you mean. Maybe with a test document. > There could be some certified-as-legal-and-free fonts added to each new > version of the suite. Some new fonts already were added in the past versions. Adding fonts is also a problem of file size, so not every free font can be added to LibreOffice. Also operating systems have there own fonts which should LibreOffice not duplicate. Other bug reports exist(ed) already. If you have a super-duper new font which should be added, please file a separate bug report with the exact font(s) that should be added. > And, perhaps the easiest one of all: when you select some text, and then use > the font selection menu to attribute a new font to the selected text, the > selected text could assume the font whose name the mouse is hovering, for > the moments on which it's there. I guess you call it LIVE PREVIEW, and you > already mentioned it before, but it never got done... Such preview requests were already filed in this Bugzilla. You can start a search for it, I have no specific bug at hand now. In short: The main reason for not implementing it are performance thoughts. > Another enhancement: add sheet 1, sheet 2, etc. to EVERY program, just like you have in the spreadsheet. Tab feature for all applications of LibreOffice were already filed in other bugs.
Please pay attention to the following: programs like Frontpage may not be used anymore, but others like RocketCake or DreamWeaver still exist, and if they do, it's for some reason. It was a similar program like this that I was referring to when I suggested to add a webpage creator to the suite.
This enhancement is completely out of scope, same as other enhancements asking for LibreOffice to become a email client. LibreOffice is as office suite, not a email client nor a web editor. If you want to use LibreOffice or gedit to write your html or css code, fair enough, but it's not what they are designed for, there are specific foss projects for that purpose.
