Description Danat 2025-12-26 09:20:51 UTC
Description:
I thought that statistics is one of the areas where Writer can be significantly enhanced

I wish there was a window where marked words, objects, fonts, lines, hyperlinks, images, pages, etc. where calculated. But the decision on what to include should be based on surveys, and not because someone thinks it should be included while in reality few people would need it

I personally wish Writer could calculated marked words with hex codes and colours side by side

@Danat, sorry but you will  need to be more descriptive of what you are asking for.

Is there some reason the current Writer File -> Properties... -> dialog's 'Statistics' panel is insufficient?

Oh yes, you're right. It already exists. Maybe you could think of making it a bit more visible, so it is right after clicking on a toolbar or even on a toolbar itself

Seems to me that the current placement of the document statistics on File -> Properties dialog is sufficiently discoverable, and provides enough reasonable details of document content/composition.

I can't think of anything missing from the current offering.

IMHO => WF
