Might be similar to a toolbar. Because of existing Bug 45174 I reduce this one to "B". I never missed that option, and to me it is difficult to see benefit. Vertical Input Line at least for western languages is not useful. But may be this has to be rated newly with a resizable Input line (as LibreOffice has). If it's a big rectangle instead of a single line LibO currently wastes a lot of room below formula icons and range display, what underpins necessity for user defined places for related elements, and for some applications it also might be useful. With LibreOffice I created a quick mockup demonstrating possible advantages. @Edwin Sharp: Do you agree with my interpretation of your request? Can you contribute some kind of "real life killer application" showing advantage of such a freed Input Line? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
