Hi all,
with implementation of the new, ODF1.2 way of B-splines
[http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/3.5#Calc]
some changes in the UI and help are needed. I have collected them in
http://www.rhenschel.homepage.t-online.de/files_to_be_changed.txt
It would be nice, if you have a look and correct them to good English.
If you know other places which need a change, please tell me.
Kind regards
Regina
Hi. How did you want edits conveyed to you. Short one below, did you
want the other in the list
steve
You can do it as you like, for example add the corrected text to
files_to_be_changed.txt and sent it to my private E-mail address or write here
to the list and cite the wrong line and add the corrected line, so that others
can read your proposal.
* The method by which line charts are smoothed has been adapted to
the ODF1.2 standard. (Regina Henschel)
o Closed lines are now smoothed using a “Cubic Spline” and are
completely rounded.
o Open Lines are now smoothed using a “B-Spline” and go
through the given points, interpolating between them.
Oh, I was not exact enough. "Cubic Spline" and "B-Spline" are different things,
but both used for open and for closed lines. "Cubic Splines" need no changes in
UI and help. I have only corrected a bug in the case of closed lines, so that
the roundness is correct now. But "B-Splines" changes it appearance, in open
case and closed case as well.

Is this more correct understanding and language.

Hi 
I think you can register at the wiki fairly easily, top right-hand corner. I
could copy&paste your revisions directly into
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/3.5#Calc
but then i would get the credit in the history instead of you. I think either
Steve or Regina deserve the credit there.

Tom
