Bug ID: 121442
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Impossible to extend the status bar with extensions
Classification: Code
Product: framework
Version: AOO 3.4.1
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: code
Assignee: [email protected]

It is impossible to extend the status bar with extensions, other UI elements
like toolbars and menus can be extended in different ways.
There is no way to add a new control to the status bar. For menus and toolbar
it is possible to extend them using the Addons.xcu configuration file.
There is an API to implement a component that controls a status bar item, a
com.sun.star.frame.StatusbarController, but it is impossible to implement in
UNO: a StatusbarController needs to access the status bar item it controls, in
order to reflect the state of the feature it represents, but there is no way to
access the status bar with the current API. The internal StatusbarControllers
access directly the underlying VCL StatusBar to reflect status updates, this
shows a gap in the API design.
