I am one of the Dutch translators and I try to translate English

At this moment I do my best to translated the document
0201WG-Introducing Writer.
On page 9 is a paragraph in which something is written about
"tear-off toolbars".
I don't know a Dutch word for this toolbars, but I also cannot find
such a toolbar.
Can someone give me some examples of "tear-off toolbars", so I can
get a better idea what was ment.
That section of the chapter should include a picture labelled
(incorrectly) "Button submenu", which was displayed by clicking on the
arrow next to an icon on the Drawing toolbar (the example shows the
"Flowchart" toolbar. The text is incomplete. It should say that if you
click-and-hold the left mouse button on the area at the top of the
pop-up toolbar, you can then drag it away ("tear it off" in English)
and make it into a floating toolbar with a title bar.
I think this is explained better in the Draw Guide, and possibly in
the Getting Started book. This section in the Writer Guide needs to be
improved.
I have read the text in the Draw Guide and the Getting Started book, but
I didn't understand everything. In the Writer document is written that a
tear-off toolbar is always floating and it cannot dock to a side of the
window.
But I cannot find such a toolbar. The shown toolbar (Flowchart) in the
document can be docked.
Can you gives me some examples or names of tear-off toolbar that cannot
be docked to a side of the window.
I did not write this about the toolbars, and don't use them
often, so I just tried some other tear-off toolbars. It looks
like they can all be docked, as you said. I do not know if the
information in the Writer Guide (and other books) has always been
wrong or if the program has changed and the toolbars can now be
docked (but could not before).
Thank you for discovering this! I will see that the information
is corrected in the English books.
