Description
The form related toolbars in text documents have been unified.
Formerly, we had toolbars named
- Controls
- More Controls
- Form Design
- XML Form Controls
- More XML Form Controls
- XML Form Design
- Database Controls
- More Database Controls
- Database Form Design
The idea was to use exactly one set of three toolbars for each of the
three possible contexts "normal text document", "XML form document",
and "database form".
All "... Controls", "More ... Controls" and "... Form Design" toolbars
were very similar, just omitting some items which were not interesting
in the particular context.
Since it turned out that this plurality of toolbars caused confusion
and various problems, they were unified to
- Form Controls
- More Controls
- Form Design
Those toolbars are now available in all three contexts mentioned
above. In some of the contexts, items are simply hidden from the
toolbar (using the respective brand-new framework feature, which
removes the item without a trail, even without it appearing in the
"Customize" drop down menu of the toolbar).
The specification at
http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/toolbars/Toolbar_content_spec.sxw
is/will be updated accordingly.
