Calc Guide 7.0, Covers and master document

Hello Team

I added the file CG70-CalcGuide-Master-OH.odm in the Feedback folder for
further work.

* The covers were updated tp 7.0
* new 7.0 template applied to master document.

On opening the file, LO will ask to update the links. As master
document, the links must be reworked at publication time. I'll refrain
to update fields, ToCs, Indexes and links until all chapters are in
published folder.

Cheers

Thank you very much for that Olivier!

Updates on the Calc Guide 7.0:

The chapters CG7010-LinkingData and CG-7011-SharingAndReviewing are now on
the Published folder after 2 reviews.
The chapters CG-7015-KeyboardShortcuts and CG7016-ErrorCodes are now on the
Draft folder ready for a second review.

I would like to raise a few questions about the Calc Guide publishing:

i. How are we on the Toolbar appendix? Are they already mandatory for the
guides in this 7.0?
ii. Considering Steve's fine job in the previous version, and that we are
closer to a LO 7.1 release, I'm thinking in start publishing the chapters
with at least one review. In this case, we can start working on the 7.1
Calc Guide immediately. If anyone could comment on this matter would be
great!

Best regards,
Felipe Viggiano

Hi Felipe,

With regards to a possible Toolbars appendix, I'm not sure much has changed since August 31st, when I wrote: "I have concluded that at this stage, including such an appendix in the guide might do more harm than good. Consequently, my current intention is to progress the 7.0 Calc Guide without a Toolbars appendix.". I would still be in favour of NOT trying to include it in the CG at this time.

I am in favour of publishing now, with one review as you suggest. My only slight concern might be Chapter 12 (Macros), only because I believe that Olivier made some significant changes (including new material) at first review. If it would help, I would be happy to review the new material before issue.

Regards,

Steve

Thanks once again Steve,

So I'm going to proceed in that direction and start to compile the chapters
in one using Olivier's .odm file.
As soon as I manage to get all the chapters together I let you know.

Best regards,
Felipe Viggiano

Hello everyone,

Just uploaded CG7012-Macros in the Published folder.

Kees:
Thanks again for the effort, all of your suggestions were incorporated,
including the new Note paragraph.

Steve:
Regarding Olivier's contribution to the chapter, I was able to understand
everything that was explained, so I did not make any major suggestions. The
only thing I did was adding a link to the Macro help page on the end (the
previous link points straight to VBASupport Statement).

About the Calc Guide:
Just uploaded a first version of the compiled Calc Guide on the feedback
folder based. There are three versions: .odm, .odt, and .pdf.
I'm still working on it, but I put there in case anyone wants to take a
look and give some comments before the final version.

Olivier:
The cover images on the .odm file were very heavy on my computer, so I
exported them to .png and re-inserted them back, but I don if this is the
right way to manage this, is there any suggestion?

Have a great week everyone!

Best regards,
Felipe Viggiano

Felipe,
I will take a look. I almost always find problems in the compiled
version that everyone else missed.

Page 104, bottom: style of intro sentence ("The data ranges may
include:") should be changed to keep with next paragraph so it goes to
top of next page.
Page 120, top: For consistency in headings, change D and P on "Data
Points" to d and p.
Page 138: Under "Method Two" the 1) does not line up with other list numbers.

Recommendations (not actually errors):

bottom of p 108 and Tip, paragraph, and Note at top of page 109) to
the bottom of this page, to avoid the big blank space.
Page 150-151: I recommend moving steps 3) and 4) from page 151 to page
150. If you do that, make some of the list items at the top of page
152 "keep with next" .
Page 189, bottom: make first bullet point under Alignment tab "keep
with next" to move to next page.
Page 267, bottom: make paragraph "do no break" so it moves to the next page.

Page 424: move steps from bottom of page to page 423, to avoid large
blank space.
Page 520: start macOS keyboard shortcuts on next page, so it's easier
for someone to print out if they want the list. Also, delete the H3
repeat of the heading that's in the H2 just above.

Jean,

Must say, that was awesome!
That kind of feedback would take me at least two weeks!! Thank you very
much for that!

As soon as I manage to take a look at the guide and apply your suggestions
I will let everyone know!

Best regards,
Felipe Viggiano
