Tickets/Topics * EPUB output requires metadata to be entered each time + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166016 + epub identifier is meant to be a UUID (Miklos) + not always, sometimes also DOI, see tdf#138792 (Stuart) + unclear why data should be entered at all - if we can pull it from available meta-data sources (Eyal) + Users needing persistence should pre-populate via their template work flows; populate and expose values during export for author review (Stuart) + The 'Author' name pulled in right now is a valud we are missing the UI for changing; and the UI we do have for changing the author does not get pulled to the EPUB export dialog; this is a problem from the user's perspective (Eyal) + "Cover image" (and other info) should be stored in the parent document; so we need a UI or some way to enter these info (Eyal) + we should not store alien attributes in ODT and either remember the last entered data or keep it empty (Heiko) + "Language" should be handled like other extra data with some field at the document properties - since, at this point, we do not actually set the language of any content in documents (Eyal) + In some cases, we now show a date value of all-zeros - probably when the document has never been saved; should have a better fallback for this case, e.g. the current date-and-time (Eyal) + the field should rather be kept empty (Heiko) + "Date" should be visualized via date picker; maybe with an extra button to refresh from the time of document creation (Eyal, Heiko) => comment * Filename is corrupted when saved as and change filter + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166052 + different behavior on Windows and it works as expected; saving a Writer and Calc document with the name "2025.04.06 testdata" adds odt/ods or docx/xlsx, etc. after the testdata and changes only this part (Heiko) + check against known formats (Mike) at least if it contains a space (Stuart) + Whatever the behavior - it has to be fully consistent (Eyal) => back to QA, recommendation to follow Mike's suggestion * Feature request - preference setting to disable or turn off opening screen that defaults to Recent Documents + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166026 * suggest to either hide recent documents in the SC or to start with the templates; and have this as an expert option (Heiko) + could also be under Tools -> Options -> General or View (Stuart) + templates could be more interesting to more people, eg. to quickly create a new document from a template; therefore rather as regular option (Eyal) => do so * Need ability to anchor a callout endpoint to a piece of text or other content + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=165971 + sounds like gluepoint (Heiko) but isn't (Eyal) + anchor of the call-out should be either 'as character' or to an established anchor point on shape object (Stuart) + still not true: The desired behavior on movement of text for a callout and for an anchored-as-character object is often different. + Will try to create a screencast to better illustrate the use case (Eyal) + callouts are not easy to connect to other objects, true; but these objects are custom shapes anyway and thereby just special shapes with no option to connect + Callouts are actually a different feature than custom shapes, which we don't quite have; and we currently use smart-art callout-ish shapes as an emulation for actual callouts; perhaps the bug should be focus on that rather on trying to force the custom shapes to be more flexible (Eyal) => AI: Eyal reconsider to keep the ticket * Apply style:script-type when users manually set a language for a run containing weak characters + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166012 + should happen under the hood, agree with the request (Stuart) + mockup attached; thinking about auto vs manual resp. reverting changes - it might be not necessary + option is only relevant and meant for weak characters (Eyal) More far-reaching/fundamental changes regarding setting of language, font<->language associations, the boundaries of language groups etc. are covered by other bugs, while this is an opportunity for a limited incremental change which would improve behavior in the imperfect "paradigm" we live in right now (Eyal) + propose to apply the style:script-type for all characters and accept the odds such as non-available characters in the font (Heiko) + the semantics of the tag mean that even if you set it for all characters, it will only apply to the "weak" characters (Eyal) + This is likely to improve MSO/OOXML compatibility issues, like bug 132000 (Eyal) + Initially at least, we should avoid significant changes to the UI for this, and control and indicate it via the status bar language area, and Tools > Language on the menus (Eyal) + Clear DF should work on this attribute - with our current "language is formatting" paradigm. When we drop that paradigm, clearing DF should _not_ affect the language choice of any text; but that is for the future. (Eyal) => appreciate any progress
