Bug ID: 168847
Summary: Button to set Word compatible justification settings
(max, min, desired)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer

Current dialog for word spacing settings
Recently Writer has been enhanced with a more advanced justification algorithm
and custom word spacing settings (minimum, desired and maximum).
The default space settings are: min=100%, desired=100%, max=100%
, which aling with the previous simple justification algorithm.
MS Word compatible settings are: min=75% desired=100%, max=133%
I think it might be a good thing to softly direct the users to use the standard
Word settings for compatibility and those settings are probably tested to work
well in most situations. Without direction, the average user may end up with
poorly chosen values that are not Word compatible.
I propose that Justification settings would be added an "Word compatible" or
"Advanced recommendation" button, that would set the word spacing setting to
the Word compatible values. Also, some kind of warning (text, colour) of Word
incompatible settings could be useful.
