Add Symphony gradients |
when looking at Symphony I saw that there are some much nicer default
gradients provided for user's convenience. Our current ones are medium
usable (maybe created by developers), but still present in Symphony,
too. To easily see what I'm talking about I have created two files:
- A Impress doc
- The same as png
I propose to do the same as in Symphony: Add the lower symphony ones
additionally. It's not much space (in the install set ;-)) and offers
much nicer to-go gradients.
Detailed proposal in dev mail here. |

Platform Refresh |
The codebase is quite old, uses APIs that have been deprecated/unsupported for many years and has build requirements that are obsolete and hard to becoming increasingly harder to fulfill.
For the major release we need to focus on the things that are critical from a binary compatibility standpoint:
Support the official JRE on MacOSX Apple's JRE6 is deprecated and the official JRE7 is only available as 64bit |

Interoperabilty improvement with MS Word on Table of Contents |
- The TOC data of a MS Word document is not parsed completely.And actual TOC data is from silently updating once a MS Word Document loaded.Thus,the fidelity can not be ensured especially when the document contents that impact TOC have been changed after creating TOC in MS Word.So,we propose to implement the TOC loading process to replace the update action.
- The tab between chapter number and TOC entry lost when loading a MS Word document,which leads to different gap between chapter number and TOC entry.That looks different from MS Word.
- Jump info will be lost when loading MS Word TOC created by un-checking "Use hyperlinks instead of page numbers". For this kind of TOC,end users can only press ctrl+mouse to click the page number of the TOC entry for jumping in MS Word.
- The customized character attributes will be lost when loading MS Word TOC created by un-checking "Use hyperlinks instead of page numbers". To this kind of TOC,the customized character attributes of the target paragraphs can be collected into TOC in MS Word.
