    • Status bar remove scrolling (Needs Approval)

      - Since we are removing default states from status bar and also inconsistencies, we are to remove the left and right arrows too

      - We need to find what prioritise to show on the status bar (left to right) in terms of importance and depending on the status bar width, elements are hidden from right to left.

      - Modified test cases for status_bar and bottom_bar

    • Add missing icons of formula bar (Merged)

      Darkmode Icons still missing in staging-perf (PR is in review)

  • Attila

  • Extended Chart Styles: working on making chart text formatting from sidebar.
    Made chart font properties work in both way (chart ↔ sidebar) font name, size, bold, italic, underline, strikeout, shadowed. (in case of axis, legends labels)
    Color only works in sidebar —> chart way.. (Still tracking down where it set from)
    Some combo boxes (color, undeline) works only when I click the button, but when selection change it does not change the chart .. still searching how it should work.
    There are a few more buttons to implement, and have to make sure it appears only if the chart element have text like element. (legends, labels, axis, titles)
    Titles seems to be different, they can have sting array, and have multiple font properties.. I have to find a way to makr them work.

  • Video on iOS

    • All merged Testflight is having some issues – so do not have a testable version there yet

      • Have called apple about this yesterday, will call them again today

  • MacOS shortcuts…

    • All merged

  • Quick look

    • iOS memory limits are still biting me – taking a bit of a break from looking at this to look at some other bits

  • Video on Android

    • https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/pull/11432 → some bits causing me frustration… but probably not worth holding up the PR for… will make followups for:

      • back gesture

      • video in presentation ergonomics

      • iOS code soundness – (fine with current safari behavior but …)

        • probably will do as part of more “things that I’ve noticed are Just Wrong” PRs

  • Multimedia size

    • Previously video always was the same size – this PR makes it always have the right aspect ratio and be either the right size or scaled to the slide

    • https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/pull/11366 → ready for review here

    • Want to work on video positioning sometime – right now it’s always halfway off the top left which is Not Very Nice

  • Pranam

  • Improving interoperability to import formulas from MSO

  • Fixing some async dialogues freezing new users joining

  • Gökay
