Hi, Peter, I have taken a brief look at the toolbars appendix, and I really like it. While I understand how this type of document could become really large, really easily, I found myself learning basic LO features I didn't know before. I'm a very visual person, and the images helped guide me through the different options. I feel that your draft has helped my LO user experience.
Cheers, Sam.
