[opensuse-wiki] Headings
A few weeks ago Rajko came up with a proposal for a new layout for == headings. While that proposal may not have been perfect - I absolutely agree that it's a big problem for the reader friendliness of our wiki that "== headings" are less dominant than "=== headings". I think something must be done about this, can someone look into it? Maybe making "==" bold - or increasing the font size, or make "===" not bold - or something. I really don't care much about how it's done - as long as the "==" stand out more than "===". See for example: http://en.opensuse.org/Documentation Even with underlining of "==" - the "===" ('User feedback', 'Errata') stand out more. I think it's really unfriendly for readers and make our pages seem un-structured and messy. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org

stay tuned - you might remember that we presented a new layout proposal for the wiki some weeks ago. I am currently working on implementing it. While doing the new layout, I will of course, implement the wishes from this list (headings, command-style, etc.). In fact I am planning to set up a page showing all content styles, so we may discuss it and add new styles or alter existing ones. This will probably take another few weeks, but expect to see a first HTML draft for the wiki template next week for a start. -- Regards Frank Frank Sundermeyer, Technical Writer, Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg Tel: +49-911-74053-0, Fax: +49-911-7417755; http://www.opensuse.org/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) "Reality is always controlled by the people who are most insane" Dogbert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org

The section heading with background is good as writers will avoid to put section title right below article title without introduction in the topic described in the title, or with some titles like "about", "introduction" that are redundant information for the first paragraph, it is expected to be introduction. I agree that is not perfect, specially because it is implemented only in a few articles, which doesn't help reader to get used to standard form of article, it is arbitrary selected color that seems to fit in present scheme, without consideration to actually serve purpose, ie. readability. And, I'm aware that new style is comming and many aspects of layout will be changed as Frank mentioned, so present status can be considered as experimenting with options. When we are at options. One way to solve subheadings is to shift subheadings a little. In this case eye looking for next subheading will look for appearance of color, size and shift instead to try to catch only font color and size. It would be similar to table of contents, where shift to right is major reading help. -- Regards, Rajko. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
