Description robert.kinsella 2003-08-11 18:03:26 UTC 
OO.org 1.1 rc3

There are different items being made available to the user, dependent on what OS
they are using.

On Solaris:-       On Windows:-         On Linux(kde):-
OO.org              Not Available       Not Available
Writer              Text                Writer
Calc                Spreadsheet         Calc
Math                Not Available       Math
Draw                Draw                Draw
Impress             Presentation        Impress
Setup               Not Available       Not Available
Printer             Not Available       Printer
Not Available       From Template       Template
Not Available       Open Document       Not Available
Not Available       HTML                Web

There are two issues here.
1. All Start menus should offer the user the same functiobality, e.g. , maths,
setup etc. should be available on windows

2. Why are there differences in 'names' between OS's ie. why call it spreadsheet
on Unix and Calc on windows ??.

I see this as an enhancement, nothing we should fix last minute on 1.1
without advice from product management -> ft.
Comment 2 falko.tesch 2003-10-01 16:10:33 UTC 
FT->OF: Can you please verify if this is still the case with 1.1.0?
Please provide a list (like the one above) with all entries and send 
this issue to MMP@openoffice.org.
thx.

Comment 4 matthias.mueller-prove 2003-10-07 09:43:02 UTC 
this one is related to Q-PCD EaseOfUse-57 (i20337) The Start/Launch
menus will be alligned (if it makes sense). We will promote the names
of the modules, so e.g. "Spreadsheet" will be replaced with
"OIpenOffice.org Calc" on all platforms.
Comment 5 matthias.mueller-prove 2004-02-20 16:15:52 UTC 
changed target to Office later

.
Comment 7 matthias.mueller-prove 2004-06-15 11:54:18 UTC 
OOo's Start/Launch menu items will conform to each platform. For wording
consistency see the specification
