Hi Ross, all,

Hi, I have been a long time user of OpenOffice.org and Star Office before that. I am asking that someone please fix DRAW.

For some reason, in the beta version, the 'fly out' selections are no longer available in the drawing tool icons. For example, on the old version if I click the text icon on the left side of the window, a flyout appears with the option of a text cursor, a text box tool and a fit to frame text box tool.

In the last betas, the tools have been moved to the bottom of the window instead of the left side (which is ok) but the fly outs no longer work.

The same with, for example, Autotext in Writer....
In 1.1.x there were the long-click buttons to privide an easy and faste list of all the autotexts, in their sections.
In 2.0 only the dialog Edit Autottext remains.

What's been done with my, our, OpenOffice.org??
The fact that MsOffice newcomers for a large part probably do not know the excellent 1.1.x left-side tool-bar, does not mean that it isn't very handy and powerful, and indeed a pleasure and success to explain to my trainees.

OK, the 1.1.x toolbar might it not be very consistent with the remaining Gui/toolbars?
Why not offer the choise to have it or not?

Or did I miss that it is possible to configure the 2.0 toolbars, so that the 1.1.x possibilities are available?


If this is a new feature, please consider returning to the old way. If it is a bug, as I suspect it is, please consider fixing it in the next beta.

Yes pls do, pls do!

Cor
