@libreoffice RE markdown export, it could be nice to have some extra options to not convert some OLE objects (specifically equations) to images in the markdown file.
Use case here: Sharing documents with equations to non-techie people, then using Libreoffice->md->pandoc to generate LaTeX typeset pdfs
@lcwander Thanks for the feedback! You can submit enhancement requests here: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org – But of course, we're a volunteer-driven project with very limited resources. To get a new feature more quickly, you can consider helping our volunteers, or funding a developer. Thank you ☺️
Will this version not look like it's ignoring basic UI preferences or will I still need to squint to navigate the glaring non-dark-mode interface with its tiny icons and tiny pixellated typeface?
@jerrej It's a bit hard to answer your question without any details (such as your operating system) and a screenshot of what you mean. There are many different icon themes to choose from...
@libreoffice
Thank you for asking! I run Ubuntu (blame them?), currently with a MATE desktop. But I've seen the same with KDE Plasma, XFCE, and so on. It's always the same. I might post a screenshot when I get back home to my laptop but I am unsure if that would help.
Also, it's not at all about some icon theme, it's that the icons are not appropriate for the UI (too *small*) and more importantly that the UI text and the document text typeface are too *small*.
And the all powerful lord of the internet rose from his ancient and dusty throne amid a million discarded, and just as ancient, AGP and PCI graphics cards and SDRAM sticks,.
And he blessed the CPUs of the faithful, even those slot 1 and socket 370 Pentium III's and Celerons from the late nineties.
And he spake thusly:
"Thou shalt always boost open source software. for open source is one in the eye for the mega corps and that is good."
Then he ate a banana, farted and fell asleep in front of the TV.
