Created attachment 174033 [details] Images Describing the Issues Hi! I was writing the Help Page for the new Development Tools feature and came across a few things that still need to be fixed or improved. Because all of them are very minor, I opened a single bug report to include all of them. 1) The DevTools window needs a Help button (see attached ODG - page 1): All dialogs in LO have a default Help button that redirects to the Help system. I believe it would be great to have a Help button here so that users are redirected to the Help page. 2) Slides in Impress are presented as "pages" (see attached ODG - page 2): I believe it would be better to simply use "Silde 1" instead of "page 1". 3) In the Properties tab the first column seems to be incorrectly named. I believe the correct name should be "Property" instead of "Object" (see attached ODG - page 3) 4) Sequences should be ordered according to their indices numerically (see attached ODG - page 4). I believe this would be more natural to users. 5) The textual representation in the Properties tab is not updated when the user selects another object (see attached ODG - page 5). The example was done in Calc: "Current Selection" was enabled and I selected a single cell B2. Then I chose cell B3 and the Property "Absolute Name" was updated in the table view, but not in the textual description.
Hi Tomaz, could you please give your insights about these issues?

1) All dialogs have a help button, but panels don't have. Anyway - sure can add. 2) The "page n" naming is not part of DevTools, but uses the "Name" property of the Slide/Page object and for some reason the name is "page n" and not "slide n" (most likely because the object is SdDrawPage and we don't have a special case when it represents slides. 3) Renamed... to "Name", which is more consistent how other columns are named. 4) Right, the problem is the order is alphabetical, so the indices should prepend 0 to be able to sort them correctly. 5) Yes, sounds like a bug.

I thought that might be the case. Thanks for the info. > 3) Renamed... to "Name", which is more consistent how other columns are > named. I liked the choice for "Name" to use in this column. However, the "Methods" tab has a new column named "Method" instead of "Name". How about changing this "Method" column to "Name" as well? > 4) Right, the problem is the order is alphabetical, so the indices should > prepend 0 to be able to sort them correctly. I thought they were sorted using integer indices.
Dear Rafael Lima, 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.
