Description jan d 2020-08-09 12:49:25 UTC
As a minor contribution to cleaning up our overflowing menus: We could probably remove the Euro Conversion Wizard from Writer.
Comment 1 Heiko Tietze 2020-12-14 13:06:49 UTC
Last modified in 2018 to use PNG instead of BMP https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/64864/ before in 2014 by Eike. Don't see the need for this dialog.

EURO converter was used in 2001.

+2002 to remove
Comment 3 Eike Rathke 2020-12-17 14:34:31 UTC
Actually it was last used 2014 when LVL Latvian Lats and LTL Lithuanian Litas were added.

However, I don't know what users expect and whether the wizard is still useful or not. We could remove it from the menu but keep it available in customization.
Comment 4 How can I remove my account? 2020-12-17 14:47:26 UTC
Just do it. Remove both from menu and the implementation.

This patch removes the access to the Euro Converter wizard but keeps the code. It was agreed in the ESC meeting 2020-Dec-17 to drop the code for 7.2.
