Description Roman Kuznetsov 2021-10-24 12:16:34 UTC 
Description:
Add some tip about install process to LibreOffice's macOS installer window.

If users do not have experience with macOS software install process then they can have some problem when they try install LO on macOS, because our installer window just doesn't have any tip.

Look at the OnlyOffice installer window for macOS (I attached it). It has a nice phrase: 

Drag and drop to install
Drag to install ONLYOFFICE to your Application folder

I think we should add the same (or similar) phrase to LibreOffice macOS installer window

Steps to Reproduce:
-

Actual Results:
we don't have some tips about LibreOffice install process in macOS installer window

Expected Results:
we have some tips about LibreOffice install process in macOS installer window


Reproducible: Always

The macOS method of using background images for the DMGs has a silly huge flaw, in that if you want to provide text or instructions, it has to be hardcoded in the image, which is obviously problematic for localization purposes… So how does one get to localize this text?

One don't and uses English.
Keep in mind the UI may get a bit crowded with the top banner in place and "LibreOffice" along with "Community Edition" text.

It would be a nice to have if and only if it can be localized
Comment 6 Heiko Tietze 2021-11-11 14:55:38 UTC 
Since we wont be able to localize with a reasonable amount of effort and the fact that macOS users should be familiar with the installation procedure I resolve this issue as WF.
