Description: Under Character Formatting > Font Effects, one can choose "character emphasis" from among the following: dot, circle, disk, and accent. The meaning of these is somewhat unclear. 1. The difference between "circle" and "disk" is unclear, because the terms don't describe what they really are: unfilled and filled circles, respectively. 2. The difference between "dot" and "disk" is unclear when looking at the preview, because the difference in size is too small. This could be fixed via bug 131752, which suggests that the marks need to be replaced with better quality graphics.

No in the Character... dialog, the preview of the font effect responds to the size of the font as set on document canvas. Simply enlarge the font to see the shape. Final resolution of the effect on canvas could probably be improved, think Unicode combining diacritic might be a better approach for these effects rendered to canvas. See bug 131752

See bug 131752 This applies to complaint #2, but #1 is a separate issue. The terms "circle" and "disk" really are no good.
Dear Kenneth Hanson, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION.
