Status bar: Bogus insert mode: inactive (in Review)
- Removed insert mode: inactive from status bar as it is not needed
- Updated cypress tests for the new test case
- Waiting for Pedro approval to merge
-
Browser: accessibility: Improvements on labels and inputs alignment in Dialogs (still in progress)
- Implemented CSS stylings for different grids to solve the length and alignment but this creates a lot of CSS declarations
- Pedro suggested to adopt Henry’s solution. Instead of adding specific rules for each dialog and child element, we introduce three CSS classes: dialog-s, dialog-m (default), and dialog-l. These classes, which are set via JS, which will control dialog width
-
Status bar length and Right/left arrows (in progress)
- Since we are removing default states from status bar and also inconsistencies, we are to remove the left and right arrows too
- Already implemented the above and now fixing failing test in statusbar_spec.js
-
Next: Equation size issue

working on making chart text formatting from sidebar.
Made some font properties set from my new sidebar.
Tried to get the sidebartextpanel.ui elements for the new ui, but they work differently as basic UI elements .. checked how they works, and found its logic hardcoded in deeper.. but it send/receive uno commands..
Made TextPropertyPanel (character-sidebar) appear on some chart parts .. it is disabled now, I check how to make them work … I think I have to impolement that selecting a chart should send font related uno commands with properties that its text have. And implement the other side.. if we get a font related uno command, we should change the chart-element text property.
Hopefully that way it will work.. it may be a bit risky as more uno commands will be sent… -

sidebar gear icon shortcut for styles in calc

cypress fixing: removing races
-
faster jsdialog updates: hashmap not string comparison in core, schedule DOM layougin in separate queue after all updates are done in browser – it helped to reproduce races in cypress

Now working on MacOS shortcuts…
-
…some MacOS system shortcuts now working…
-
not ideal because I had to use a deprecated API – but I don’t think there’s a good alternative
-
emoji picker (M-C-SPC) binding is more complex
-
not working on Webkit browsers on MacOS (Safari, Orion) – and I’m not sure why…
-
not inserting properly on Firefox due to a blur event before the emoji is typed – need to jiggle about when we [un]register the input event or how we handle input while focused/blurred
-
not positioned properly because of the location of our text input field – working on a very ‘red code’ patch to fix that

[Writer] Find and Replace option Comments should select found word
-
This is a feature request. I researched a little bit about
-
-
-
Idea 1: Alter comment HTML directly to highlight word
-
<p>This paragraph contains some <span class="highlighted-text">highlighted text</span>.</p -
Safest way but may have negative affect on performance?
-
idea 2: Find the word’s exact position and create an overlay section over the word
-
It seems ideal but hard to find the exact position of the word
