[Qgis-community-team] Fw: [qgis/QGIS-Documentation] Raster Alignment Tool (#610)

[Angie Garcia]

I am new to the group and I agree, when editing documentation it's best to stay consistent and save time.  In regards to ubuntu, not that familiar with it however, if you are referring to being in the cloud, I like the concept as it would allow everyone to quickly post a screenshot, regardless of the operating system. That being said, if the Wiki or Github has the ability to setup a site to view screenshots, it might help eliminate another location. (In other words, use what we have else, find something that works)

Regarding other operating systems one can do a simple comparison test from each OS used.
For  Example:
Windows
Linux
Unix
Etc...
Place one screenshot from each OS in the site and take a vote.

I compared a windows shortcut screenshot to the Testing User Guide May 28 2016 and saw a slight difference in shape and highlighted selection.

FYI: I use the windows print screen and Snipping Tool.

Best Regards,
Angie

@DelazJ<https://github.com/DelazJ> @yjacolin<https://github.com/yjacolin> some time ago in the mailing list it was decided that it would be better to always use the same system. At that time I offered for updating all screenshots, I asked if it would be ok to use ubuntu. That is how the guideline were set to ubuntu. I would be ok to change it to anything else. but keeping the consistency.
There might be Operation systems more favorable to this type of work. for instance, no rounded corners (I always cut then in ubuntu), buttons in the right corner, smaller menus and texts, etc... something that most of our users (windows?) would recognize (but not windows...:-P).

In this case, and during the creation of testing documentation, I would say that you could add the quick and dirty screenshots (this way I know what images you were looking for) and keep the issue open for reviewing the screenshots only (you could even remove the text label).
