Description hans_werner67 2006-01-12 07:30:16 UTC 
The handling of sheets (delete, copy, insert, move) does conflict with the users
habits: 
1. The sheet to be copied/moved etc. is referred to in the menus as “Tabelleâ€
(lit.: table) instead of “Tabellenblatt†(spreadsheet) as in MSO Excel.
2. The context menu on the sheet index tab behaves differently than that of MSO
Excel as well, without being more intuitively usable: it still contains cut,
copy, paste, which does not refer to the entire sheet but to the cell selected
by the cursor position.
3. In the Edit menu, the user has to go into the submenu “Tabelle†to then find
move/copy, select, and delete.
Thus, the user just chooses “Einfügen†or â€Ausschneiden†(Insert or Cut) or
deletes contents instead of “Tabelle einfügen/löschen†or even opening the Edit
menu entry “Tabelleâ€.

Recommendation: Support habits learned using MSO Excel:
1. Omit functions on tab index that do not refer to the entire sheet.
2. Change the German wording “Tabelle†for Spreadsheet into “Tabellenblattâ€.

target 2.x for usability test results with prio 2
Comment 3 matthias.mueller-prove 2007-09-07 13:33:01 UTC 
new task created for the terminology Tabelle/Tabellenblatt: i81364

From now on this task is just for the context menu on the sheet controls. Do not
offer Cut/Copy/Paste for the context menu, because this is not the intended context.

reassign to Frank
set target to 2.4
Comment 4 frank.loehmann 2007-11-08 09:29:00 UTC 
No resources for OOo 2.4 -> retargeted to OOo 3.0.
Comment 5 frank.loehmann 2008-02-11 15:56:41 UTC 
Both issues will be handled by i81364 already send to our localization team.
