Description Roman Kuznetsov 2022-09-23 08:39:37 UTC
Description:
Options dialog. Move "Allow use of OpenCL" option to LibreOffice Calc > Calculate subsection

We use OpenCL only for calculation in Calc so I suggest to move the OpenCL enable/disable option to LibreOffice Calc > Calculate subsection in Options dialog and to delete OpenCL section at all

Steps to Reproduce:
-

Actual Results:
OpenCL option is in its own tab in LibreOffice's general options section

Expected Results:
OpenCL option is in LibreOffice's Calc > Calculate options subsection as it should be


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Comment 1 Rafael Lima 2022-09-23 21:58:34 UTC
I tend to agree with this idea, specially because the OpenCL page has just a single option.

OTOH the Calculate page is very crowded already.

We always can use some scroll area as it already using in other sections, for example in LibreOffice Calc > General
Comment 3 Heiko Tietze 2022-09-26 10:23:36 UTC
Sounds reasonable. But OpenCL requires to restart. Not necessarily a blocker.
Comment 4 Heiko Tietze 2022-11-22 12:14:19 UTC
Let's do it.
